Hi po. May naka-experience na po ba dito na inallow mag home quarantine na lang instead sa facility? May nakapagmention po kasi sa amin na pwede. Is it a fact or a myth hahaha

Do you recommend booking a flight sa Sky Scanner or CheapFlights etc.. And malimit din po ba magcancel si Cathay?

Myth. Mandatory po mag quarantine sa hotel. Sa airport sila ang mag aassign ng hotel kung saan ka magstay.

Mas maganda po mag-book directly sa airlines. I won't recommend 3rd party sites specially this time kasi madalas mag cancel ang flights pag nacancel, mahirapan kang mag refund or rebook pag hindi direct sa airlines.
Cathay pacific madalas din magcancel. Last yr my bookings were cancelled 2 weeks before flight. Twice nangyari samin. Nakaswerte lang ako makarebook ng january flight at natuloy.

Oki Thanks Maam
Maam out of topic baka lang po may insights din po kayo hehe :
May I know how long is the process of getting a drivers license in AU? On the average?
And also, will they acknowledge my driver's license here in PH even if I just got it a month before our big move?
Thank you
Joined: Jul 24, 2017
you need to hold an international driver license for at least 3 years to convert to full AU license .
if less than a year, you will likely start from Learner or P1.

Just want to share our experience sa pagkuha ng Driver Knowledge Test (DKT) dito.
More than 3 years ang lisensya namin sa Pilipinas, tapos nag exam ng DKT.
Sana ay makatulong ito. Ingat palagi.

Sa mga naapprove ng Jobseeker payment na nagkawork, nirequire pa ba kayong mag agree sa job plan?
Nagtataka ako bakit pinag-aagree pa ako. Samantalang nung buong march na reporting nagsubmit na ako ng employer details and salary. May kasama pang tawag yun kasi nag-e-error sa site nila every time magsubmit ako ng report.

Hello. Re house hunting po. Assuming wala pang lisensya at wala ding friend/ relative na may car to drive around the area/ suburb, pano po ang ginawa nyo sa logistics? Taxi na lang? Meron ba alternative na medyo mura? 😅

hi po and good day, you can try searching for public transportation like the bus or train, but need to consider na minsan may delays and you need to cross lines kung train man ang gagamitin hehe...
check nyo po yung transportation website ng state kung nasan kayo, they are very helpful sometimes
all the best po!
