Unless things have changed recently, the only ex pats allowed are captains, no ex pat FO's...

I am also looking for information in regards to Air Asia pilot screening. Any info on the Technical Exam, Interview, and Simulator would be appreciated.

Apparently the work visa/permit is where people are getting stuck.It is taking up to 8-12 months for approval to work as Capt in Malaysia and in that time several are finding work elsewhere......mission accomplished for the authorities who want yokals not expats.

Any info on the screening process?
