Invitation for academic research about expatriates in Indonesia

[Rizki Basuki]

Hello, I am Rizki, a graduate student from Sebelas Maret University, pursuing Master's degree on Human Resource Management.

I need your help to participate in our research about expatriates in Indonesia. This research is conducted for academic purposes, as a requirement for my scholarship program. This is really important for me to continue our education. I assure you, all the obtained data will be kept strictly confidential. I will not disclose the data to third parties.

Some of the respondents who complete the questionnaire will be chosen randomly to get a gift box each, and will be contacted by email

If you would like to participate, just click the link below. Your participation will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much and have a nice day!

If I am happy to help but don't want the gift why do i have to add my email address. I never supported Genisys or SkyNet

If it is free YOU are the product!

Like @vocalneal I will not leave an e-mail address; normally at the end of a survey you ask the participants if they want to participate in a lucky draw and then you ask the address info.

Something we see in these surveys all the time btw; the assumption that expatriates are in a foreign country for work. And here again...

 

[Rizki Basuki]

Done.

Thank you so much!

Hi, I tried erasing it but it also erases the responses I've got so far. If you don't want to leave your e-mail, I hope you don't mind to fake one. I am so sorry for the inconvenience

I had a look using Guerrilla Mail. What do you mean by "Adjusted" or "Unadjusted" Sorry that is above my pay grade or just gobbledygook. I suspect maybe I'm too thick.

Ie. Housing Conditions Adjusted---- Unadjusted Does this mean the housing was adjusted to suit me or that I adjusted to suit the house. Before I lived in a CMX house C for size, M for modified and X for expat. So the house was "adjusted" for me as it had AC, hot water, Western style cooker inside, etc. Although in fairness i never went into a C house or a CM house. If they existed.

I'm not really a corporate guy used to these nonsensical groupings or sub categories?

It does get better on page three with Similar ---Different but page two is a complete mystery.

I think it means is it part of your package, included in the salary, or allowance, or salary and they give you the house of their choice for free?

What do you mean by "Adjusted" or "Unadjusted"

Read it as "are you already comfortable with/not yet comfortable with" in most questions.

What he means is "adapted" (like in beradaptasi or menyadurkan or even menyesuaikan diri in BI).

This is funny how it is way easier for a non native speaker to understand another non native speaker compared to you guys who are native English speaker.

Thank you so much for helping me answer the question. Yes, what I meant by adjusted and unadjusted is whether you're adapted yet or not. With the housing condition, are you comfortable living there or not. I am lacking a lot in my english skill so I am sorry if it is hard to understand. Thank you!
