Yes but they will also take this in account if u apply for citizenship. This is what i have been advised

Yes i will try. I only give 2 months. If cannot find a job i will write to the state government to notify them before i move to perth or melbourne.

I am not sure about Melbourne now.
after i visited perth a year ago, i found out that the city there much cleaner and well organised. mainly because not so crowded.
Even housing prices are at acceptable level.

Sydney and Melbourne is very expensive now for me. hopefully I still want to stay in Melbourne because my friends are all there.

i had just came back from Melbourne for visa activation.
Have no real plan yet, maybe next year march onwards I will move to Adelaide. then try to find job there while the business here run by itself to help me on simply expenses like rents and bills.

Thats for 189 isnt it?

From what i heard, working holiday is really more like "work and holiday" where you can play after a few months of work. A friend of mine got his working holiday and his skills is actually high demand in Aussie. But non of the aussie company want to hire him unless he have a PR.

U can try to pave your way out with working holiday for the year and see how it goes. Maybe look for Malaysian or SG company operating in Aussie?

but how could that makes them happy in the long run? u know i have a friend who do that. end up becoming homeless even with a part time work.

This summed up what I am thinking the same when I was applying my PR. Now that I have my PR, the next worrying stage is whether to have my kids study just for elementary chinese school here then move there after they turned 12 or move completely there, with 100% aussie education. But then again what about next generation? they would probably fall into that westernised value.

The fact that many people don't understand the sacrifice when they think the place there is better. In fact there are other things to be worried about. Is not easy to retain that asian value when the kids are surrounded by westernised culture. Of course not all kids will be westernised in a way that they would dump their parents into nursing home, but if you could retain it will be okay for you at least.

In the end, is about what you really want for yourself. You ant yourself to have better life and want the kids to have better education and better governance then u can move on, on the downside, there are things you may have to worry for your further generation.

I do have relatives who migrated to US and Aussie. During festives event, they don't even want to come back anymore even when they can take off day from job. ended up their own parents need to fly there to see them. It is sad but this is true.

U forgot 1 more thing. The 2 other races have been learn and practiced to endure hardship imposed by some Gomen. Thats why we cant blame Chi and Rest for protecting their own economy.

In Chinese there is a proverb "when the horse die, we will walk" or "if there are still greens on a mountain, we can still have fire to warmth ourself" thats why we could see many Chi in any country will be able to at least pave a simple life without much help from welfare. We are not eligible for it anyway. Just like jobs in Aussie, if u are asian u could hardly find a decent job. But i could still see many tried so hard to be in there. And some of the succeed. Some of them can still survive happily working as waiter or groceries refiller.

Many other culture will never understand this. When they fail to sustain in their own economic crisis. They will beg for help from Gomen. In Aussie there are centerlink that provide money to homeless and people who cant find job. Same goes to here non bumee dont have discounts in buying properties here but still many of them just doesnt care.

8/11 of my cousins(same generation) already migrated overseas.

not all in Aussie though, some go Taiwan, some go US, 1 or 2 go singapore.

They rather have pressure from job than pressure from Gomen instability.

Difference between racism and dicrimate.

Religion.

Anyway. Lets stop here there will be no ending again.

Sad right. My oldman told me during his younger days he got a bunch of good friends. Mix of indian, chinese and malay. They can enjoy cup of teh tarik in chinese hawker stores. Muslim order food which is halal, chinese order wantanmee. But all of them could sit together and enjoy conversation. Now is totally different. I dont want to elaborate. Lets go back to aussie topic lol
