i personally feel that getting the IR is definitely not necessary if you DO NOT plan to be one of the following:
1) civil engineer
2) consultant engineer (mostly in electrical field)
being a professional engineer (PE) means you have the authority to sign blueprints/floorplans, in which you will be held responsible for if there are any defects/failures/problems.
if you are just an engineer in manufacturing factory/service engineer/sales engineer it is not necessary to be a qualified PE as you would not be required to approve any designs that involve public safety.
FYI, beside strong techical knowledge, an Ir also must possess a strong connection. As for professional people(Ar, Ir, etc) whom are chartered are not only wise, but mostly are politically well connected..... 1) civil engineer
2) consultant engineer (mostly in electrical field)
being a professional engineer (PE) means you have the authority to sign blueprints/floorplans, in which you will be held responsible for if there are any defects/failures/problems.

and I notice a lot of Civil Ir are not consultant themselves, but developer,main contractor etc......

strictly speaking, only a civil engineer who will approve building floorplans & a consultant electrical engineer who needs to verify the circuit designs will need to be a qualified PE, and mind you they carry heavy responsibility for it.
not quite...As for simple project say shoplot, residential, mostly will follow local government standard and wont even care to design/specifically plan for it. unless you have a mega project like KLCC.... and even they plan, dont worry, mostly manufacturer will plan for consultant andconsult do what they do... approve!!!!!

is it true that electrical engineering 1 of the hardest in engineering field ?
you can say that...In fact, all three major Engineering field require your great imagination....
1) mechanical- to imagine and visualise the movement of fluid,dynamic,dynamic of heat etc... which is not visible to naked eye
2) civil- to visualise the bending moment, the cracking, vibration of structure
3) Electrical.... to visualize the pathway of current that can run generator etc....
Why E&E is difficult? cos it is darn complcated... you can have a complicated circuit like Newyork road as big as grain of sand....
