Voici la reponse que j'avais eue de la part de
www.extremesportscafe.com
Je me renseignais justement sur la possibilite d'apprendre le parapente en
Thailande et en
Malaisie, mais ils ne m'avaient pas repondu sur la
Malaisie (parce que je crois qu'ils ne font pas de cours la-bas en fait...)
La reponse date de juin 2008 donc elle est un peu datee. Mais apparemment toutes les infos sont dispo sur leur site.
