cherries1:this food tatafo dey sweet me sha.. Basmati rice is a bit more expensive than the rest but it is well worth it for fried rice things(my opinion). Jasmine rice is gummy gummy. as noted, not ideal for fried rice unless you are gunning for fried rice balls . in my area, Indian shops stock more quality basmati brands than others but i reckon other asian shops will do just fine. If per chance you are able to, do look around for these markets around you, you never can tell when you run into some positive sales will change your life. 1 Like |

bossladyMo: -yeah same for me back in 2011, NAB were the only ones that guaranteed me ease of access in creating one in the shortest time possible. NAB also did the whole application package thing which was impressive for they had sent them to my destination address. Although I turned up at the bank just for the sheer purpose of meeting my account manager. Got both debit (chip) and EFTPOS cards activated that same day. didnt have to go in but i did it anyway. -took a fixed bonus interest rate of 1.10% p.a for 9 months on top of the standard variable NAB iSaver interest rate which i think was about 5% then. -free financial advice for the 1st year with them.. So yeah not much |

bossladyMo: call me bias but i will stick with NAB as it was very flexible with the migrant banking option out of the 3 even though i heard there are better rates with Commonwealth. |

UBKtech: @ The Bolded : Correct.. Your head is there.. @Bossladymo, With the phone option. go with prepaid option. you cannot go wrong with that. there is also prepaid boost mobile (blackberry options). I think the real bonus here about the starting from somewhere is that the person(s) you end up working for will stand as your local reference. it paid out eventually . I learnt to follow-up with calls to the names on the adverts sometimes before and also after dropping CVs. was not a big fan of www.seek.com.au but back then when it was reigning this side, i used this site www.snipey.com.au and it was heavenly. Connected me straight to the recruiters bypassing the agencies but shame they are under maintenance now. PS: mehn those tradies ehn..giving their occupation the "chargeable" respect it deserves. |

bossladyMo: Interestingly i have now come to understand if you really really really have to get a bank (NAB) loan for anything as well, your credit history can also consist of any of your regular payments -regular rent payments -if you buy a car with financing and you have set direct debit to it, ensure that you do not default in any payment. -regular utilities (gas+electricity) payment So if you are living..make sure you are good to go and try not to default on payments. |

tonybunor:Welcome to Brisbane. CQU is in the heart of the city. you will be fine Will have to agree with @FutureDon on the use of Qatar Airways as the cheapest out of the big semi-direct flights. However, given your timing, i guess you might not have an option but to go for one of them. Also exchange rate from USD to AUD is still higher. Carry ya USD join body and enter. Cheers! 1 Like |
Nairaland / General / Re: Bitter Experience At Nigerian Embassy In Australia. by MisterNRC(m): 1:14pm On Sep 27, 2014 |
Ok.... So i must come here to allay a few fears. Eventually made the trip to Canberra and i must commend the level of service i got at the High Commission. Granted that I still have a few opinions about getting a whole new passport number thing in the event of a renewal, i will add that the official [Great Service and super Service...Mr Umar] i met was very quick to assist with the explanations on why one needs a new passport number while renewing an existing one (still don't agree with this reasoning tho after all if everything were maintained online like they are, then i should be able to request an extension and not a new passport identity) Anyways, I didn't spend up to an hour for everything there and it is was a welcome decision. Data Capture: I was made to fill a data form twice [This was so that the High Commission can build its database of Nigerians in Australia] . The logic i did not get was why did I have to fill the same document by hand twice when it could have been photocopied after filling it once? Then again if you say that they will save money on ink..isn't that the same ink that they used to print multiple copies of the form in the first place. Administrative fees: Still don't get why we have to pay an extra fee for Administrative services, after paying the due fare for the passsport services. Guarantors Form: This is a requirement as even the immigration website says that it is only needed for the first timer applications, however, it is recommended for all visa applications from High commissions outside Nigeria so you have to get it while going to the High Commission. Anyways, was glad i didnt have any sad stories to recount afterwards and it was a welcome process. |

Chai!... OP it is well...All the way from Perth.........CHAI!!! my wife was dealt the same hand in Jo'burg. Excuse she was told was that the passport officer had taken his wife and kids to the airport and he has taken the day off, that's why she would have to come back the next week. 2 trips later, she got her kpali. Anyways heading to Canberra myself this month. If i had my way i would have been in Lagos to get this done but oh well, lets see the excuse this time around Question tho is, did you get any subtle hints from them to "grease their palm"? If not that's a HUGE improvement if you ask me. |

African educational systems have surprising outcomes. The smartest students pass with First Class and get admissions to Medical and Engineering schools. The 2nd Class students get MBAs and LLBs to manage the First Class students. The 3rd Class students enter Politics and rule both the 1st and 2nd Class students. The "Failures" enter the Underworld of crime and control the politicians and the businesses. And, best of all, those who did not attend school become Prophets and everyone follows them.... What a paradox and an irony of life!☹ #copyright #faajihouse #criticalthinking 22 Likes |

He arrived at the airport at about 9 p.m. with his escort, Emenike was overwhelmed by his fans’ greetings. Despite the tight security, they surrounded him, and the footballer was forced to give out cash and club jerseys, while he made his way into the departure lounge.
