Does this guy reckon that millions of Chinese will now rock up, all with $100k trousered to then take over Indonesia by... by ... being Chinese?[/QUOTE]From what I read online the local agents are already offering their service including acting as guarantor for the 2 Milyar funds required for this second home KITAS. This will obviously open the door for individuals with limited cash on hand to apply. So the question is then, can people keep extending the 10 year second home KITAS in perpetuity? If so the xenophobes will go nuts.

I love this place! The guy dreams up a new law in answer to getting a caning from Jokowi about lazy and lax lawmaking. Then spouts in out and promptly disappears from view leaving the world to rotate. "hold my beer and watch this boss!"

Search Google for the definition and rules surrounding Sertifikat Hak Pakai.

To apply you must have a bank account at an SOE bank or a property but to get either of these things in the first place, you currently have to be resident alredy ... No ?I confess to being cluelessEDIT I recall it does say the foreigner can apply him/her-self so perhaps the sponsor is optional.

Takes 60 days from announcement until visa program will start, so by end December all the details should be ready.As I understand this will work similar to VITAS + KITAS process. So no need for local bank account for VITAS but the 2 Milyar fund shall be transferred into SOE account for the KITAS part or alternatively rely on a local party that can provide a guarantee. I'm sure the visa agents are in full swing to iron out all the 'bumps' so they also can make profit from this new scheme. Could be the same "asset" end up offered as "guarantee" for a whole bunch of second home KITAS. So better watch out.

Take it or leave it (the KITAS it is). Any interest payments are taxed as well. So there is a high risk the 2 Milyar deposited will loose half of its value over 10 years compared to a relative "conservative" investment in the free market. A rotten deal indeed.

Should I start packing and prepare to live in Aus in a tent as trying to live on just the pension is all but impossible with units mostly around $450 a week and the simplest house $500 plus?

As with everything here: the more laws, regulations and rules, the more opportunities for locals to "provide a solution" (for a fee of course).

Your on a married kitap ,ya harry, so no worries , this is a pension visa only issue.[/QUOTE]Thank you. In life I always look for a fall back position. I had previously used a 4x4 utility to make a fold up camper which I called the Half Star Hotel. Would rather use that and move around than be stuck in a miserable room somewhere in abject poverty.
