Are you mad?

Unless you are Malaysian or from Singapore a Malaysian Licence is useless. You would have to convert it where ever you go, Europe, Australia or the US. The licence is based on the Old UK CAA exams, but remember they are marked "Not valid for the issue of a UK Licence"

As for Standards well, although their Motto is "Higher Standards Always" they're not. Crashed a PA28 earlier this week EFATO. Cause as yet undetermined.

Have a look on the Far East Forum. Complaints there of insufficient aircraft and instructors.

As for Accomodation rooms are about 5 feet by 8 feet with Airconditioning only after hours. Oh and the standard Squat toilets in the communial bathrooms.

The boss there is an interesting character, Have a look how he is described on the Far East Forum.

As a matter of interest, Why are you thinking about training over there?
