We are open to any MRAs and some countries (cannot be named yet) have expressed interest. For now, only Australia willing to do it, and currently finalizing the processes. Hope all goes well! USA is very unlikely tho, because their architecture profession is governed state by state. So we won't have US-MY agreement. Not sure if MRA can work between nation and state level.
Regarding graduates from non-LAM accredited degrees, there's still way. We don't want to exclude anyone. First, they must enroll and graduate from an accredited programme by the country itself. For example in the UK, ARB must accredit the programme first. If not accredited by its own country, means forever cannot register in Malaysia. So this rules out bogus qualifications.
Then, just come to LAM and register themselves for Part 2. They will do a check and will request you to sit for the LAM part 2 exam. If pass, they get the part 2 and can now practice towards part 3. If not, they will be asked to sit for a preparatory programme for about 4 months, then sit for the exam again. And again, and again until pass.
I don't know. I find it fund and informative and can meet lotsa people in the industry. And usually my practice friends use this opportunity to headhunt for top students from the lecturers. But you have to find what's worth for you.
LAM has always been in the background,lah.
Haha sorry topic typo. But the official one is correct.

To be honest, this 'validation' thing confused me a lot. AA and UCL dont bother to apply this anyway.
Did LAM take reference from RIBA? I remember they charge a lot to the schools as well if they want to get RIBA 'validated'.
What about Singapore? They recognised a lot of schools from Europe, Japan, China, USA, UK etc.
Do they visit and charge each school as well?
I understand this 'validation' is to make the whole things more organised and systematic.
However, some of the established schools dont even care about this validation.
And you said this move was to recognise more good schools across the world but now you said the recognition of USA unis is impossible...
Good schools? They dont even bother to get validated.
Only mediocre schools that are too hard up for tuitions fees of international students will apply.
