http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-ski...ive-sponsor.htm

no need to be last remaining family member lah for PR.

srsly do proper research 1st pls

yea 6mth thing but not the relative thing

886 is for ppl who studied 2 years. seriously. were u just too busy to look things up or sth. cos if u were serious about this there would have been plenty of time to settle everything.

if u know what u need it would take only about a week to settle all the docs, not incl vetassess, ielts n health check (before the msian high comm decided to pull the lol news on us)

p.s: if you've already passed your 6mth period then 176 it is for u. tough luck.

ok the govt efficiency shite again. me and empire keep giving shit to the govt every few pages but it seems no one reads.

australia is still largely backwater with shitty infrastructure coverage and internet infrastructure for the amount of tax it charges. it all goes to hobos living off centrelink.

EPF. u may choose to contribute or not. generally u get taxed less if u contribute but u know its still money out your pocket every month until ur old

ok look at the points test system

the page u posted was the general work and study requirement. since that does not apply for the 176 visa, it is moot.

why does it matter? they dont give u points for the 2 years study anyway

this visa is for ppl who dont meet the 2 years study requirement but have the appropriate qualifications and a relative

im not going to elaborate much more on that as i think i have done enough already

its up to u whether to accept it or not. nevertheless i think 176 is the only way to go for u since uve passed the 6 mth period

cant say that. lifestyle preference is quite subjective. if u cant live without ramli burgers and hawker stall foods etc then u'd still be suffering there

it's the pros and cons

outdoor lifestyle is defo better in aus, so are the concerts. but it doesnt mean malaysia loses out totally

we have a mamak in sydney too but tell me how much u pay for ur roti kosong, and how good do they taste? acceptable? probably. fantastic? probably not when compared to stuff we have in msia.

it's not hard to find msian food in aus. problem is theyre all just edible or average. for the truly orgasmic ones u still gona come back

cars are cheap. maintenance is exp.

as a matter of fact, everything related to services are expensive.

i.e: restaurants, plumbers, electricians, dentists, mechanics, movers, etc

u win some u lose some

social security? i guess so. but that's also debatable. u get some seriously crazy crimes regularly. drive-bys, murders, stabbings. stabbings are so common its not even funny.
it depends. it's generally safer but u still wont want to be at some places at night.

people are more polite yes, but i find them to be mostly 2 faced backstabbers. they put on airs around even ppl they dont like and be all nice n shit. but u never know what they really think. i think msians are more straightforward in that sense, although most msians are unfriendly pricks

but one thing i find the most glaringly different about msia and aus is that in msia, u get that sense of freedom and convenience. u get to speed without much worry, park in non designated spots, jaywalk, generally just do what u want without having to face very harsh consequences. not in aus. not that im a jerk tho, but sometimes, when it doesnt bother ppl, why not. that sense of freedom is felt even more in indonesia

sg feels very very restricted, much more than aus

ah always good to have net income. enjoy it while it lasts

yea those are caused by many factors, but personally if i know i wont be bothering anyone, why cant i do something to make my life a little easier without having to worry about a slap in the face by the govt?

im used to driving in aus and u do get used to it, but it still feels restrictive compared the shit ur allowed to do in msia.

funny story. i once saw a car hit another car at a roundabout. i assume someone neglected to stop for the vehicle coming from the right, no one was actually alert enough and bam they hit each other. i was wondering to myself this wouldnt happen in msia cos we're all so used to not giving way to ppl at roundabouts anyway, we end up usually being more defensive on the road.

u'd be able to travel and own an old car but not afford a house. u can rent and that will be good. but most waiters/tresses are students or single mums looking to earn an extra buck. it's not something u'd wana live off really. unless ur a bum like alot of those bogans
