To Railzand,
hi there,i have got NZ PR,and I love her very much as my second home country. Auckland is mor e suitable for Asian people,esp. Howick. I just thought Oz is larger and prosperous,so want to move there to widen my views and seek chances.

I was just being stupid. Actually I'm very envious of you youngsters with the hutzpah to seek new horizons. Both are the most marvellous countries. That's fascinating about Howick. Thirty years ago Vancouver was the place for Asians to go. Good luck to you and op

I know a woman who went to OZ, and got a job in a hair salon. Worked for 1 year and live for another year there, now she is a OZ citizen. This was 2 years ago.

In terms of immigration laws, how hard would it be for a Canadian to move to Australia?

I remember looking into it a few years ago and unless you were a skilled professional and had a considerable sum in your bank account (I remember it being around $150k but I may be very wrong), it seemed very hard.

I'll be an expat myself soon enough...

Hey Kenshin.

Here are some resources that you might find useful:

I've also been a permanent traveler now for a little over a year and would be happy to answer any questions you may have about the process/experience of expatriation.

Thank you for all the links.  Smiley

I am thinking about moving to OZ from UK. Anyone from OZ around here?

I want to know what the national debts OZ got and how much? Also how much is the VAT in OZ. Also is the electricity in OZ cheap?

I heard Australia has pretty strict immigration laws ie you need a specific trade which will be beneficial to the country to emigrate there, so take that in to consideration if you don't have one.


Does snake and big spider come into the house? Also Bondi has any chance of forest fire or flood?

Yes, there are big spiders everywhere.

I heard it is not actually that hard to emigrate there. I know a few people just went there and settled down. They are not of any specific trade or professional.

I reckon you should check about that before you make any plans  Grin.

They have lived in OZ for over 10 years now, they even have kids going to school there now. I think it is not that hard. Actually I am a professional so I should have no problem.  Smiley

I think the rules were changed within the last few years or so so wont apply to people who have lived there a decade and have kids there. And a professional what  Grin?

I am a professional Porn Star.  Grin

Cool, at the moment OZ still looks good. I am thinking of Sydney, because I got friends and relatives there.  Smiley

From that link it said Sydney is 26% cheaper, so that is good. Also if VAT is only 10% that is also really good. And the GDP is low, which is excellent. One of the major reason why I want to live UK is the UK debt is so high and there is a possibility that it will increase the VAT and other Tax really high soon, to cover for the debt.

Is there any national health service in OZ?

it's full of poisonous spiders, floods, shackle-draggers, poor rugger players, forest fires, dust and flies. and if that doesn't start a 'debate', nothing will. NZ much better?
