    ⚠️ Urgent Immigration Advice Needed: Expired MERP and Return to Indonesia with KITAP

    As I understand it your Kitap will no longer be accepted. You can apply for a visa on arrival but then will need to start the long, tedious process of Kitas to Kitap all over again.

    How to determine if a neighbor is stealing electricity?

    That's a quick solution to stop fuses tripping but only until you get a good electrian to find the root of the problem. The whole point of a fuse tripping is to prevent a short circuit causing a fire. Plenty of listrik problems causing fires around Indonesia.

    What It’s Like to Work for the Billionaire Nickel King

    Wherever the world turns there are "entrepreneurs" becoming rich by exploiting the poorest workers. And the greedy and corrupt will go to extraordinary lengths to squeeze potential out of employees and down to the last drop of blood. The scam centres in Myanmar are just one of the thousands of...

    The future and the role of Artificial intelligence.

    It seems we though we were saddling a horse and find we are on the back of a Tiger. Whatever the longer term dangers it is clear that the short term impact on employment is heading towards us like a tsunami while most governments are ill prepared and just preoccupied with the usual complexies of...

    MERP expired - KITAP tarik advise please

    Struggling your way through the bureaucracy can be difficult and depressing. In Australia I have often found that if I have a problem and write a letter directly to the CEO then, if it is looked at, it has resulted in a good response.

    Is Yacht investment really better than Villa Investment?

    You do not have to be a billionaire to own a yacht. This might not be too expensive. Passengers sit in a rubber tyre attached by a rope.

    UK Bank asking for TIN number?

    I am planning to win the lottery in Australia this year. (Actually I have had this plan for nearly 70 years but thus far the winning numbers have eluded me.) In Australia lottery winnings are not taxable. Now after I have won say half a million dollars (or not as the case may be) I would like to...

    Remote work with a spouse KITAS visa - the how

    Thank you. I prefer to think you are right. My mood hasn't been much helped by recently having my Westpac Bank acting for the tax department in Australia chasing me over the last few weeks for information about my status here. Seeking information about a whole lot of stuff which I don't have. I...

    The future and the role of Artificial intelligence.

    I daresay there may be many skilled, higher paying jobs in Indonesian industries which may be at risk.

    The future and the role of Artificial intelligence.

    A very interesting piece this morning with the ABC about the imminent chaos that may develop as humanoid robots find their way into the workplace. An interesting analysis that is written from the perspective of mainly westernized economies. The desire to replace people with machines is...
