My younger sister will be studying in high school there,how is the education system like?

Regardless, it is still a very bad idea a) not lodging a bond with the RTA of the relavent state b) willfully knowing that the landlord you have "doesn't follow the rules and regulations in Vic", or any state for that matter.

I say this because I've seen too many cases where I have to deal with people who entered into accommodation with no written contract, no bond lodgment with the state RTA, rent paid cash in hand, with no way of tracking, and they expect Student Services to help them when they literary end up on the street. And believe me, it is not limited to any group of people. Bad landlords are not limited by race nor skin color.

I've heard all kinds of excuses from "too busy" to "don't understand" by people who try to justify their situation and their lack of positive actions. As much as it sounds noble and morally right that no one deserves to be exploited, if anyone does not help themselves, if anyone doesn't do actions on their part to have the protection tenancy laws in Australia provide, such people deserve to be exploited.

Of course, usually these people I deal with can't see that through their blinkered views and poor command of English, and think I'm "being unhelpful", "in cahoots with the white folks", "anti-Chinese" (despite my genetic makeup!), and wait for it, "racist; only helping his own kind".

Take a chill pill KVReninem. haya has every right to read whatever is posted on a PUBLIC page.

but i dont think theres a problem with your english tho. for most of us English is just not our first language.

anyways, i read someone asking for room rates near RMIT in the CBD. A friend of mine stays in a 2 bedroom apartment on La Trobe St. for AUD400. I guess thats within your budget if split 3 ways.

Hi guys,

Is it possible for me to bring back 42"tv back to Malaysia next year ? Thinking to buy a new tv here in brissie..ermm

possible, but you got to use extra size baggage counter...
but you able to claim TRS. Saw one Aussie bought back 40 inch LCD TV back from -no idea where-

I dont think im gonna claim the TRS since i will buy the tv in 1 month time.Brissie so bored..Ouh,can i use cargo to ship my tv back ? Do u have any info on that ? thanks.

Why not claim the TRS?
Are you doing charity to Aus govt?

I`m not really sure about cargo worth the cost shipping back when you can get cheaper in Malaysia.

Maybe its the conditions attached to claiming the TRS?

I'm not entirely convinced that buying a TV in Australia is any cheaper than buying it in M'sia. Adding in shipping would probably cancel out any financial advantage. These things are generally standard prices, and don't vary too much across most countries. (That said, a strong AUD does help a bit).

these condition are pretty straight forward. All you need is receipt of purchased amount more than A300.
The LCD to be purchase range about A1000 to A1500, that`s more than required & with about A135 refund; you still gain few RM but minus your oversize cargo cost..that's all.

a question for those who graduated..
u put ur name in last name first then only first name or first name then last name?i mean in ur testamur/cert

[rant]Gosh, Limeuu isn't kidding about Malaysians who go to English speaking countries, studying in the English medium, who can't string a proper sentence of English.

Its not too bad when they just talk amongst themselves, but when they are asking for help and you can't answer them simply because you do not literary understand what they are asking for, one has to wonder why.

It has nothing to do with being "snobbish", "racist", "spoil your image" or "superior". I mean, people can't help you if they cannot understand your query.

Of course, when the person (badly) asking for help doesn't get an answer, the usual accusations of "being unhelpful", "in cahoots with the white folks", and wait for it, "racist; only helping his own kind" come thick and fast.
[/rant]

I'll break that query down into 2 parts:
Come again?

If you really need help, read the front page, where I talk about naming conventions.

i knew it u will come..

ya, i admit my english not as good as urs..so?
just wondering why take it so serious since this is just forum that u will expected many mistaken grammars/spellings/short form?

and is there any wrong that a poor English Malaysian student like me go to English speaking country to study?

then how about Malaysian student that totally blank about Japanese language and go to Japan to study?

u are free to correct me but you're not and making a "rant" or to be exact, look down on people like me..

i will expect more to come from you..so just give me your long post/statement regarding this post(as u always do)..


p/s: grammar police might look cool but actually not

australia ? proper english ? you must be kidding. Even British or American say australian english is like a joke.

hey guys what is the best way to send my bicycle from perth to sydney?? how much will it charge?what courier or shipping is the best?

Since when respectable ever need to demand respect from others? Only people who like you who has not earn your respect will demand so much just to cover your own mistakes and protect your "min-chi" (face, pride in Cantonese).

And that gives one an excuse for bad English huh?

err,hello :knock: :knock:
did i cover any of my mistakes there? and do my post has some meaning to get back the pride?
i admit that was my mistakes and accept it but not with "uncool rants" as i mentioned

please try harder and not to judge me with irrelevant statements

Because you are not happy that people are able to pinpoint your mistakes SO WELL, that's why.

i don't understand some people.........

this is an english language forum..........

it is on studying in australia, an english speaking country (detractors of aussie-speak notwithstanding)...........

most posting here are studying in oz..........

therefore, one would assume that anyone writing and reading this forum/thread would have a reasonable standard of english.......if nothing else, because studying and immersion in an english environment like oz would be stimulation for a reasonably competency in basic communication english........

however, of course some people starts with a very low level of english competency, and we take cognizance of that........as long as one is ever willing to accept corrections and learn from that.....

however, some appears to take pride in their relative english incompetence, and take no effort to correct and improve themselves........even after years in oz........one wonders, how do they get on in oz, and how do they do their academic writings?........

kind of defeats one of the main purpose of studying physically in oz......that is immersion in and learning english.......
