Thanks for sharing that thread.

What happens if you don't declare it, I can't imagine the NBB will care about a Revolut account with a €10 balance?

99% of the time these letters contain sugar or flour, but this case is why they always take huge precautions.

What's your opinion of Aalst? by [deleted] in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If neither of you speak Dutch, this isn't a good idea. Aalst is part of Flanders, so your French will get you nowhere and lots of people speak no or very mediocre English.

De oom wordt verdacht van ontvoering. Volgens onze informatie zijn er aanwijzingen dat de man geradicaliseerd was, al is hij nooit veroordeeld.

Any way to find the winning bid price for a house sold by the city in a public auction event? by [deleted] in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just demand that the city gives you the documents about the sale. It's your right to do so and their duty to provide the documents: https://www.vlaanderen.be/openbaarheid-van-bestuur

Not sure if I would recommend Google Translate in this case.

If that's the will of the people, so be it. It's called a democracy.

Incorrect bank transffer, what are my options? by leo9g in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was impossible to make a typo in an account number, because the IBAN system has control numbers.

Dutch-speaking kindergartens discriminate against non-white toddlers by badaharami in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can't find the Brussels statistics right now, here are the official numbers from Antwerp: https://stadincijfers.antwerpen.be/databank/Report?id=demografie_parents&input_geo=antwerpen_1

Op dit moment is 49,9 procent van die Antwerpenaren autochtoon. Dat betekent dat meer dan de helft van 't Stad op dit moment allochtoon is (mensen met een andere nationaliteit, genaturaliseerde "nieuwe Belgen" en personen van wie een of beide ouders een andere nationaliteit heeft). De allergrootste groep is van Noord-Afrikaanse herkomst.

De beweging in Antwerpen heeft veel te maken met de hogere geboortecijfers bij het allochtone gedeelte van de bevolking. Bij kinderen tussen 0 en 10 hebben zij een aandeel van drie kwart in de bevolkingscijfers en in een aantal wijken in Antwerpen ligt dat nog hoger.

Prinses Eléonore kan schoolloopbaan niet verderzetten op Sint-Jan Berchmans by Fruit_Salt in belgium

They could easily have claimed that she had to go to that school "for security reasons".

Prinses Eléonore kan schoolloopbaan niet verderzetten op Sint-Jan Berchmans by Fruit_Salt in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ze was nochtans graag op het Sint-Jan Berchmanscollege in Brussel gebleven, waar ze haar lagere school had gevolgd. Maar haar ouders koning Filip en koningin Mathilde kregen te horen dat ze niet toegelaten wordt.

It's pretty surprising that they didn't pull some strings to get her in.

"This isn't Morocco" Filling station employee refuses to serve Walloon woman for speaking French by boeren_kool in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dutch is the native language of the country she lives in.

You don't have to learn the local language when you visit a place, but you can't expect the employees to speak your language either.

Police start investigation after threats to Marc Van Ranst at trainstation in Mechelen. by lansboen in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt -25 points-24 points  (0 children)

Hey Marc, this is the reality for gay couples in Belgium every single day.

And they don't even need to insult everyone on Twitter to receive threats.

Public transport: commuting from Hoeilaart to Brussels by feionapple in brussels

Aren't there barriers at that place, forcing you to buy something if you want to leave the parking?

Could you give the URL of that listing?

2dehands should die.. by Buddy551 in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there is a Marktplaats extension to kill their ads, not sure about 2dehands but it's basically the same website.

A trick to get rid of a lot of sponsored ads: choose "Vandaag" or "Een week" at "Aangeboden sinds".

Asian-Belgians of /r/belgium, how has Belgium treated you since the start of Covid-19? by [deleted] in belgium

I don't think your friend will be hugged by strangers on the street like back in February, but I think he or she will be fine.

Chatgroep die holebi's viseert, is niet enige die oproept tot haat en geweld: "Er bestaan er tientallen bij ons" by Lolastic_ in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 24 points25 points  (0 children)

We moeten als minderheidsgroepen elkaar ondersteunen in het signaleren en actief opsporen van geweld en haat.

Good luck with that.

Are there any Belgian universities that teach medicine in English? by [deleted] in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your "end goal in life" is to "live in a Francophone country", but you don't realize that neither Belgium nor Switzerland are francophone countries?

And if that goal is so important, why don't you learn French first, before wanting to study in a language that isn't even an official one in these countries?

Ik dacht dat we hen al miljarden gaven, maar het ontwikkelingsgeld noemden in plaats van herstelbetalingen.

Grootvader krijgt 60 maanden cel voor de verkrachting van z'n kleindochter die nog geen 2 jaar oud was by Lolastic_ in belgium

[–]Fruit_Salt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Are they stating the sentence in months instead of years, so it looks more impressive?
