Dont play play maybe you were not born yet.I did go there just to shake hands with that guy.Originally posted by SexyChin:Sentosa? -
Not much, just pack your bag and buy a budget airline ticket. If can't afford, take a slow boat. How else did your great grand cho-kong migrate here?

if get caught by police withut proper docu then you are ban from that country right

interest rates are pretty high in australia. so taking debt is not an option. thats why i am thinking if i want to migrate there, how much do i need? maybe S$1million is JUST enough -
if u dont have 1 million. there is 2 way u can go.
1. skills migration.
if your skills are require in australia then you can opt to work there at first and then apply. do note that depends on which part of australia u intend to move.
coz skills requirement in different states could be different.
eg. in perth and darwin, a degree in electronics engineering probably cant get u any good job. but if are a car mechanicm, plumber, you did be surprise that you are in demand!!!
2. spouse migration. get a australia wife. if you dont mind, you can married ah Bo! aboriginals. just kidding!!.
she can apply for you, and i think its the easiest!! -
It is sky high!!
First,u need judgment to decide the SWOT of migration.
Make up the mind.
Secondly,u need Courageous ,which is priceless,to take action!!
Good luck.
May the Force be with you!!
do your home work YOURSELF
1.Never make assumptions.
Assume u can buy a rental for investment.
Beware there are laws currently to protect more on tenants than Landlords...
and looking for HDB in Aussie,/....
Dunt expect u can get a public house so easily if u dunt have money. -
Basically, my little understanding is, if you have a skill in some kind of demand in the country, you can apply for migration as a Skilled Migrant. I think to migrate to Canada is easier than Australia. Any comments?Originally posted by Daddy!!:Does anyone have any comment on this topic?
So, with skilled migration plan, there is no need much money except you may need to rent a place or your employer can pay for you depending on how you nego with them during contract time , and maybe the application fee or if you hire an agent to do that for you a couple of thousand sgd that all.
Best if you have a Canadian or Australian degree. More points.
Canada offers one of the cheapest university education I know. feel free to comment. -

Just learn from FT here in SG how they became Sg Citizens.
Some just marry a local. I think this makes things very easy.
But then, in SG, its either the easiest or one of the top most easy country to get citizenship for skilled workers and even not so skilled ones. Just come here, apply for study and then viola, skilled FT. Accept low pay for a start and once get a sg job, stick around until you get citizenship. From non degree to degree and to skilled FT.
So easy until cannot easy. -
i came here to australia as a skilled migrant.
application fee is S$1850 back then, and throw in *ahem* emigrating agent fee which is about $2.2k. but u can do it by yourself.
now the fees had went up, all in all, s$6700.
question is; what is the driving force for your decision? is it pull or push factor.
each place has its own strength and weakness, so it is up to u to make that decision. -
Australian woman are getting married to immigrants for $50k.

As much as singapore welcomes people who wants to leave their country where they were born, so too should we give the same acceptance for people in SG who wants to do the same. Else, double-standard?Originally posted by fishbuff:i came here to australia as a skilled migrant.

While I think everyone of us have a right to choose which country, like Australia, NZ, Canada, to live in, we must not forget that we have the Birth Right to make SG better. The baby step to make SG better is as easy as throwing a paper plane. Make sure you have done that before you go for greener pastures. Help those still living in SG. 1 last time. If that is all you can do for your people here. People who thinking seriously to migrate, guess what paper they will throw? -
If I have a S$million, I don't have to work. Every month, I will be at the immigration checkpoint from Australia to Zimbabwe!Originally posted by Daddy!!:interest rates are pretty high in australia. so taking debt is not an option. thats why i am thinking if i want to migrate there, how much do i need? maybe S$1million is JUST enough -
At current market prices, S$1mio translates to only AUD750K which can afford only a small appartment (AUD500K) with security guards. The balance AUD250K is to buffer the uncertainty in migration.Originally posted by TheGoodEarth:If I have a S$million, I don't have to work. Every month, I will be at the immigration checkpoint from Australia to Zimbabwe!
So even with S$1mio, one has to continue working and hardly afford to live a carefree life traveling around the world. Besides, not working isn't a good life style for a young couple too. -
the problem i think as a skilled migrant without enough money would face these problems of (a) paying high rental as tenants, (b) paying high mortgage interests as owner of a house/appartment, (c) whats the outcome once hit by job uncertainty. Consider this for someone who has a family to support.Originally posted by reyes:if u dont have 1 million. there is 2 way u can go.

So one needs money to pay in cash a safe apartment (with porter security and private car-park) to eliminate the problems of LIVING UNDER THE BURDEN OF HIGH INTEREST RATES and a buffer to safeguard one from falling down under this burden. I guess S$1mio is JUST enough. Am i correct? -
Sorry, I either dun understand you or you are full of bull.Originally posted by Daddy!!:the problem i think as a skilled migrant without enough money would face these problems of (a) paying high rental as tenants, (b) paying high mortgage interests as owner of a house/appartment, (c) whats the outcome once hit by job uncertainty.
