with SERIOUS interest and effort, I am sure proper aviation is possible in Malaysia.
Bigman122, are you so confident in saying this? Interest and effort on whose part? There are many serious and interested aviators trying to make aviation work in Malaysia, but it takes only 1 screwed up intervention by DCA to set GA back to the 1960s level.
Lets discuss just 2 issues.
1. What is being done to increase the number and quality of Flying Instructors in the Schools as well as the Clubs?
2. What is being done to increase the number and quality of LAEs in Malaysia?
If Malaysian citizens are not willing to take up these 2 vocations, why can't DCA open the door and allow foreign nationals to train in and be licenced in Malaysia?
