lol good one Sam

Ron, I totally have to agree with you on that. I'm very annoyed because I can't find a travel agent that is willing to help me out here. But I'm trying to find reasonable prices for tickets so I can book the needed rooms in a Resort somewhere between Kuta, legian, seminyak or even sanur. Its...

:) Thanks guys, SpicyAyam, yes I was on the phone today asking the travel agent to cover flight cancellations and delays as well. Good point.:) Rollingstone, buddy I've seen so much in my short life that hardly anything scares me. But being in charge of a group of friends traveling with...

Hi, I am planning to visit Bali late March with a few of my friends as I want to talk to a few of the expats and get a sense of the place. My mid-term plan is opening a restaurant which I have already mentioned in a couple of posts that some of you might be familiar with. But first things...

:) Awhar, I have BA in Hotel and Hospitality Management. Even though I do not live in Bali (yet) I can tell you that Spicyayam's adivce is very critical and to the point. You need to have a Business plan. I am reviewing the link you provided above. Its interesting but I can't give you any...

pet shops? Are there any reliable pet shops in Bali? From posts I've read here, specially the article regarding the unfortunate murder of a lady I'm thinking about getting a rottweiler or a pitbull since most probably I'll be living on my own. Cheers, Ali

good question if you find one let me know so when I move to Bali I can join as well!

funny shoving someone down and getting on their back to have a better view. what a dumb ass to try and talk dirty about another destination to boost their own tourism. Terry is absolutely right, if they want to get a share of the market they should start working on revising what they've been...

some good advice there Fred .:)) Yeah this sounds about right, lets see how my negotiation skills will work for me over there. Planing a nice long stay in Bali so need to get things on track. thanks again :)

:) Thanks again Fred. Then I will have to think of something, because I've the knowledge locked with running the restaurant. If I register my partners as the directors, then I'll get working Kitas, will be able to have shares in the company? The other question is, if I rent a shop here and...

restaurant and PMA If I register a PMA in order to get KITAS for my restaurant business, other than the shop that will be the restaurant address, do I need to have an office as well? This is bothering me.

Working on it Fred, I so much want to be there right now. I'm tired of this unrewarding hectic mega city lifestyle. And thanks for everything. It means a lot and I hope some day when another expat asks questions on this forum, I'll be able to give them the advice like you guys do. :) Cheers

Yeah, you're right. :)

Hi guys, Some of you might know me from my previous posts regarding opening a restaurant in Bali a project I'm still pursuing and hopefully will start in a few months time. But for now I need a travel agent that has great ties with different rated and types of hotel specially in the southern...

Fred, I would like to think a lot sooner than Christmas.:)) So how's it working out for you? With the local partner, the corruption and the lease? Your comment is very interesting and valuable. Men usually forget about detail, detail and detail. And this forum is actually helping me out a lot.:)...

lol Markit, I don't know how to respond to this. But thanks for the offering, last I checked I was still straight :))

? Do I need to register a company, PMA or any other type if I want to open a restaurant in Bali? If I do, do I have to 'actually' give 51% of the shares to a local partner? If I don't will I be able to obtain KITAS??? Sorry for the dumb questions, but I've yet not got the answer to...

:) Gilbert Hi, Thanks a 1000 times. I've read many of your comments on different posts and I've always received positive energy from them. Yes discouraging but not bad, not negative. Sometimes a man has to be discouraged a bit to take proper action when yet again making another move in his...

Wow Pollyanna and Markit: Your comments definitely put some perspective to the whole idea of living in Bali. I will gladly make use of your kindhearted advice.:) Gilbert: Man this is some valuable but scary info. I've worked and lived in different places, I've had problems too but...

Hi Spicyayam, Just wanted to tell you that I've become a fan of your book. And surely when I get to Bali I'll buy the book. Thanks for helping newbies such as myself with your knowledge of the country and experience. :)
