Is Australia worth it?

Sobrang convinced ka na ba @mr_righttt na mag tuloy sa Oz? HAHAHAHHAA, dami na namin nasabi oh. Sabi sayo e, sobrang ganda ng sitwasyon mo, people would absolutely trade places with you right now.

Banggitin ko lang ito (since you mentioned kaka break nyo lang nung jowa mo), yung love life, darating yan brad. Haha! You will move on, sigurado kami dyan lahat. Focus on yourself na lang muna. Best of luck! 😉

I'm already at mid 30s, if given the chance, I would've start the process around your age.

May pros and cons din yung situation mo kasi you are already a boss and earning decent (1M/ 500k a month) is already a good leverage for your future.

Yes - may onting racism sa foreign land, that's natural. Pinas lang ata yung ang tingin sa foreigner eh higher or upper class, still using Sir and Maam and bilib sa mga puti or singkit but anyway, pag napapanood ko lang yung traffic, crimes, unfairness sa justice system, palakasan, kapit, etc.. parang walang laban yung mga normal na taong tulad natin sa sarili nating bayan. (own opinion ko lang naman)

Cguro pang push talaga yung Security and Peace of Mind. Pwede ka pa din naman mag retire sa pinas or come back early and do business with more experience/exposure/capital.

all the best and balitaan mo kami sa susunod na kabanata ng buhay ni Mr right.

On this note as well, I do not want to sway you to any direction. I think this is a decision you yourself will have to make. Either way, madami may gusto makipag palit sa yo na taga pinas to have your 189 visa. I am sure madami din gusto makipag palit sa yo na mga taga AU na gusto bumalik ng pinas and earn 500k to 1M a month gross php sa pinas. Agree ako sa nag sabi na hindi naman mawawala pinas, puwede ka bumalik anytime. I heard this sa isang movie, and as a person na malayo edad sa yo, I will leave you with this na lang. People tend to regret more the things that they did not do compared to the things that they did do. Cheers

Ive been living in Singapore po for 10 years, and weve learn to live as the 2nd class. Dito kasi priority talaga citizen at PR interms of everything, work school medicals benifits which ia understandable naman. Pero not all Singaporean ganito magtrato. Some lang talaga. Lahat nh bansa meron, pero ounta ka kung san tingin mo secure ka and ung future mo. Family of three kami, pero hndi ko nakita ni minsan na may future kami dito sa SG. Specially for my kid.

On this note, share ko lang. AU na din, not important yung ethnicity, pero citizen at PR malaki edge. Madaming jobs, well I can say most will require yung PR visa. Again, NSW and VIC pa lang na-try ko mag work. PR na ko when I got here, lahat ata ng jobs na I applied for hiningan ako ng PR visa.

True on this. Nung nag apply ako before nakalagay talaga sa job description 'Must be an Australian resident or permanent resident'. Dun palang nafilter ka na hahaha. On a lighter note, Aussies are friendly people. Uso small talk dito kahit nakatayo lang ako sa bus stop or sa mall. Sa US this will be a weird thing to do haha

Hehe, pero I guess ok na din. At least pag PR ka, pantay ka na din sa citizen. And in some weird way, pag matagal ka na dito, medyo naiitindihan mo na why most jobs would require a PR visa or a citizen. Not because those people are better, ang daming sensitive data talaga. Mas madali ka huntingin if PR or citizen ka if may kinalat ka na data 🙂

This is so true; may advantage talaga pag citizen/PR when it comes to professional jobs. From a business standpoint, companies prefer to hire citizen/PR because of full work rights and they can potentially stay in the job for a long time. It takes a lot of time, effort, and money to train new employees, so they want to hire someone who won't have to leave the country after, say, 1-2 years, otherwise they have to repeat the hiring process all over again (it's cheaper to retain talent instead of hiring new ones frequently). Internship opportunities are also targeted towards citizen/PR because it's their "feeder" program, meaning interns can potentially be hired by the company for the graduate program (entry-level job after graduating from uni).

Hi guys, if you already have visa go for it. I can assure you Australia is better than our homeland or any other countries i think. Bago lang din kme dito, we came here during the pandemic. This is a very fair country, with real democracy not flawed. friendly ang mga tao, they say sorry very often even minor things. Racism? trust me kabayan pa natin ang mas racist and other asian. If someone racially attacks you, you can call the police, they take it seriously. Opportunities? There's no need for elaboration, if you want to be a builder or contractor here you can study in TAFE free of charge if PR ka, then you can get your license as a builder. Construction here is a billion dollar industryand very high demand. Jobs? Australia has labor shortage, if you have the right attitude trabaho mag hahanap sau, some employers will not look at your skills, they are interested in your attitude. Yan napansin ko d2. And of course lastly social services are free, health care, etc. If f#### up, government will give you ayuda hangang mka balik ka on your feet again. I can understand your hesitation i been there too😂
