Re: Toowoomba? Current job market? Easy to find a job?

It's interesting to read this thread.

I'm in contact with a company about a job in Toowoomba (a company I previously worked for in UK, Tanzania and Bahrain/Saudi), and it seems they might be...

Re: Moving to Mwanza, Tanzania

Karibu sana!

I'm pleased it's going well for you so far and feel that the employer plays a massive part in the settlement process for expats.

Re: Bahrain move

I only managed to live in Bahrain for a year, as my Saudi iqama couldn't be processed (I was unlucky enough to be working in KSA), but I have to say that I found Bahrain very enjoyable. I didn't have...

Re: Moving to Mwanza, Tanzania

Firstly, AJMJ, apologies that I could not help with your questions. My knowledge of Mwanza was limited to one trip of just a few days. But Gandalong seems to think it's fine! Hopefully if you have...

OK, well it sounds like you are working for a responsible employer and they are taking care of all the right things, like mine did for me.

On the tax front, I was employed by a Tz company...

Re: Moving to Mwanza, Tanzania

OK that's good. Firstly, Mwanza is quite a nice in comparison to some other places. You have the beach, some nice rocks and as a town/city it's quite tidy (again, relative to other places). I don't...

Re: Moving to Mwanza, Tanzania

Hi and sorry for a very late reply. I used this forum before heading to Bahrain and KSA, but my relevance to you is that I was in Tanzania from 2009-2012, having moved from UK (I'm British).

Re: KSA Labor Law / Employment Law

Thanks Hood.

I'm waiting on a couple of legal firms to come back to me. There is an element of query on the calculation but also a much more significant point that I need to know my position on -...

Re: KSA Labor Law / Employment Law

Hi Scot

I won't comment on the specifics, and the question of 'is it worth it' depends on the final terms of settlement, which are due to be confirmed.

Sadly, faith in my company to handle...

Re: What's for lunch?

Nice one :rofl:

People in my office don't seem to eat lunch every day. I feel almost guilty.

So instead of ordering from the local ranch (oops, restaurant) or popping in to KFC, today I went...

Re: Questions about Bahrain

Welcome to the board.

I moved here less than 2 weeks ago and so far I have nothing negative to say about it at all. The media back in UK was definitely painting a picture, and whilst these events...

Drink-driving is common where I was too, just across the border from Kenya. But the locals could never understand why I refused to drink and drive.

Re: Bahrain before Saudi

I'm a law abiding citizen in UK and multiply that x 1000 in another country. It's just not worth it, whatever the action.

Temptation, weak willpower, and greed = recipe for disaster.

Re: Bahrain before Saudi

I think for any of us expats living overseas, fear of a foreign jail must remain one of the uppermost thoughts in our heads in most actions we do.

Well, I just watched the video link you put up Para, with no breaks or cuts. That would have taken weeks or months in Africa and I would have missed 90% of it.
