    Maghanap ng nearest catholic church :-)
    Come to think of it, ano nga pala most common religion sa AU? d ko pa na search to ah.
    Halos di nag practice religion mga tao dito kaya mga simbahan eh halos bakante - common trait ng mga developed countries yang di religious mga tao napansin ko.

    Pero karamihan dito eh mga Christian denominations (Catholic, Baptist, etc.)

    Kami naman ni JCSantos eh mga devotees ni St. Michael Pale Pilsen.
    Haha marami pala mga deboto dito.

    Sa SG mga 1/2 lng sa church ang occupied tuwing mai misa. And ung misa mga 4 times a day lng, di katulad sa atin sa pinas na almost every hour meron on (on sundays). O well, ganyan lng tlga most developed countries.

    Oo ika nga ni Mang Kadyo The Philosopher eh "religion preys on the weak and needy" huhuhu. Medyo wais kase mga tao sa developed countries - alam nilang hard work ang katapat ng success at hindi devotion sa religion.

    Kahit sa census eh madami dito nilalagay na "No Religion" sila. Pero kanya kanyang trip lang yan kaya ako eh tuloy ang devotion ko ke St. Michael Pale Pilsen, the patron saint of alcoholics.

    Kurikong, kurikong...sa tumbong ay umusbong!

    We will be applying for TFN, medicare and centrelink accounts once we arrive in Au. I understand that I have to inform our bank as well as centrelink of our TFN. Question po, kailangan din po ba sa Medicare ang TFN? Kasi tiningnan ko yung application form ng Medicare, walang portion para sa TFN. I guess hindi kailangan i-provide ang TFN details sa Medicare. Sana may makapag-confirm. Salamat.

    @legato09 may binibigay bang ID ang centerlink? I've applied kasi online and lodge a familytax benefit claim, gusto ko rin magkaID para proof of age/identification. Thanks!

    “Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don’t. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.”
    ― Harvey MacKay

    Ask ko lang sana.. I'm on 190 visa state sponsored. Pag dating ko, klangan ba na mag "courtesy call" sa sponsoring state? Or will I have to inform them na dumating na ako? Or automatic na yan dun sa immigration? clarify ko lang.. Hope may mag respond asap kasi will be leaving na next week. Thanks!
