Firstly first, before you take license, you must know about licensing conversion first.

First, let me tell you about licensing conversion (for low timers only).

In Malaysia, there are 2 types of licenses directly accept by DCA Malaysia. HKCAD and CAAS licenses are '1-to-1' interchangeable. Meaning, there is no practical flight tests or ATPL theory exams required by DCA M'sia and it's all paper work.

For low timers Malaysians (holding HKCAD and CAAS) to convert to DCA license is easy. If not, they (not holding HKCAD and CAAS) will have to go through pain-staking ATPL theory exams and expensive twin-engine flying before they can convery their license.

I am not going to answer directly to your question now. Your location tells members you are in Hong Kong, but you never reveal what is your actual nationality (or which passport)!
