Now you tell me... I presume your info is current since you just posted it. I thought we could convert easily before 2005 or 2006 but not anymore. I thought the new regulations were that we had to take lessons and test because we're driving on the opposite side of the road. Malaysia is right hand drive, here left hand drive. But the advantage is that those with a Malaysian driving licence can take the minimum short course of 7 days (including theory on the 1st day). For UAE or USA, no problem, I was told - driving on the same side.
I got my driving licence the hard way, with a particular PO... And had to wait till after Ramadhan too. Sigh!
But thanks for the info. Groundwork must be done in Malaysia before coming, huh?
/Juan, how is the original post great news for Filipinos?
