The only reason why I am doing a PPL in Philippines is because I have been sent here to work for my company for a period of 1-2 years.

Is CAAP not a member of ICAO? The training method and materials they use should at least have some level of decency, I suppose? Do you foresee any difficulties in doing a conversion back in my country? If I do a conversion in my country, then I will be eligible to do a CPL, no?

Thanks in advance.
The Philippines is infamous for poor training and exceptionally poor standards in aviation. While they are a member of ICAO they skirt around requirements.

I personally know pilots who have certificates that have aircraft on them that they have never flown and also have ratings they have never tested for.

As far as your country conversion, a lot depends. You are only as good as your training. Most countries see through the pathetic BS of CAAP.
