Hi guys Haven't been on for a long time, family matter to attend and still attending . Has this gone anywhere. I work for a company who are suppliers to the food industry, this includes dry goods, marinades etc and packaging. Trying to look for a supplier in Indonesia.

My husband tells me what he hates - mumbling in English he can't understand me, I talk too fast, I use too much slang - which is true. I can pretty well work out what is personality and what is Indoneisan. When I told him there was no salt in the rain - he just looked at me and refuese to...

My husband is Indonesian and does not have the benefit of our education and up bringing. I can only compare it it my upbrining. Example we were looking at buying a house in the hinterland but my husband said 'this is village, village people are uneducated'. We all know that most people would...

Yes I walked up and down that road for 4 days and still did not get through everyone. I would have thought importing from Bali and selling had waned over the years. It was great in 2004 - 2006 but interest I find is not the same now.

I think Australia looks after and gives enough to Indonesia in aid.

Keystone Cops Yes please Nicole tell us what happened to KM. Before I married my husband and we were at his parents house we shared a room but did not advertise it and if anybody asked (and they did) they were told we had seperate rooms. He is not Balinese and he is Muslim and his family are...

donation Go ahead if you are prepared to lose the money and walk away if it goes pair shaped because it will do your head in. If the money isn't that much of a hassle go to a Notary and do up a contract and take it from there..................................... I could nolt afford to lose...

I wouldn't worry about light bulbs too much, I can handle that but I would worry about trying to catch the rat running around and causing havoc............................................ absolutely a mans job.

Bliss All I can say was that she was not very adverturous when she was in Bali by herself. That is part of the enjoyment of travelling on your own. You can do what you want when you want to. I tend to agree with Mats about being hypocritical. At least she thought of something different...

Thanks Mats I knew it had something to do with Star Wars. Yes I agree the majority of Australians do not take religion too serious.

Gilbert, We are having a census here on the 9 August so hopefully figures will come from that but there is push for Australians to record their true religious beliefs. Appartently we have a high percentage of "The Force" converts from the last census. :icon_rolleyes:

One name Many people only have one name now in Australia. My husband is Indonesian and he has only one name. Do as they say first name and last name same.

They are locked up because they have to be processed before being allowed into our country. We advertise in countries what will happen when you come to Australia illegally so they know before they come what to expect. They don't like, too bad. 150 or so 'boat people' were recently housed in a...

Local buying a house Must have NPWP, Commonwealth requires 20 - 40% deposit depending what you are buying i.e. house or townhouse, apartment etc. Loans are I think rather short maybe 10 years. Just go to a bank and enquire that is what we did.

My husband has just been given his permanent residence. We applied for a proposed spouse visa. He came for 9 months and worked. 1 month before we went back to Indonesia and go married. On our return we then applied for the Spouse Visa and it was approved within a week. We were told 6...

I did not try when entering but on the way back to Australia my husband asked and the Immigration officer said 'of course'

Animals How much is an extended time. I have 3 and my husband is Indonesian. My problem is I don't want to take them over as they probably will never be able to return. My dogs would die in quarantine I think it was 6 months when I enquired.

When I got married I read somewhere that I had 1 year to become an Indonesian citizen if I wanted.

Any update on this. It is very interesting.
