The problem with DCAM is that they are consistently inconsistent. It depends on who you know. If you're well connected with some thick cables, your foreign CPL can be converted one for one. If you're a nobody, you'll need to:
  • write to DCA to beg for their blessing to convert your licence
  • at least meet the SPM requirement or equivalent (your university degrees and foreign CPL are not good enough to prove that you meet their high school requirement),
  • minimum 500 total hours,
  • write all ground school exams (JAA except Air Law, which is still DCA),
  • do additional 35 hours in a multi-engine aircraft,
  • Malaysian Class 1 medical,
  • flight test,
  • English proficiency test,
  • etc etc etc...

Good luck.
