SUMMARY


When I started this thread, my intention was to explore the valuable pieces of advice that Scroobal mentioned were found in the old forum and port it over to the new forum.

The old emigration folder had 57,120 messages.

Thus i thought the amount of work would be huge. However most of the messages are not found. There are only 50 visible threads in that folder at this moment.

....

Anyone wishing to know about migration to Australia, Canada and New Zealand will find this thread useful.

It contains valuable helpful advice and insights - stuff that you may not find easily on the net.

In my opinion, if migration is your intention, then reading this thread will give you a good insight as to whether you really want to bear the negative issues of migration and if life in another country is suited for you.

.....

There are of course many gems left in the 50 threads. If you like, browse the old forum and consider porting some of the insights given there to this thread so that others will benefit too.

.....

I close my contribution to this thread with this thought from Leongsam:

To each his own.

It all depends upon want you want out of life.

You only have one.


Thank you.

They're all still there. Just go to the bottom of the page and click on "next 50" and the next lot of threads will appear.
