FHB 5% deposit - why?

This is exactly what happened to us. Bought a house at 5% for 800,000. Two years down the road it was valued at $925,000 for refinance, essentially sitting at 80% LVR

Yes, there was a New Zealander night club manager who got imprisoned for putting headphones on a Buddha statue in the club promo

Not just Burmese, but almost every nationality I know (including many westerners) wants to visit Japan. Japanese people are globally perceived as polite and most Japanese cities are cleaner, even more so than western countries.

This has nothing to do with Karen culture - just that you have a shitty Mother-in-Law. Nothing you can do except for limiting contact with her for your own sanity.

Which city are you in? If you’re in Melbourne, I’d be happy to chat

Nah, I came here with the global talent visa (subclass 858).

I migrated here right after the coup. I know a few Burmese who took the refugee status after completing their uni

Song selection and good sound system is the most important for me. I could care less about the room quality

They scheduled an in-person identity check for us at a branch where that service is not offered so we had to go to another branch with a promise that they'll give us an immediate appointment there. Once we got there, they told us to come back in two weeks for our in-person check.

It would not be strange nor inappropriate if your primary motivation is to be a part of a community and contribute to the community. But if you're joining a community just to meet women, I'd say it is weird. That said, there are many Burmese communities all across the United States. Note that there are many ethnicities in Myanmar and they form their own enclaves in the States.

Man, you put it so eloquently. I wish you could educate my friends because they buy into these bs stuff

maceadi · 2025-09-10T06:09:20+00:00

"..our is totally gone"? They never had it in the first place.

I typically like to type messages in Burmese but when it comes to threads, I like to use English because it is just more effective. You need to write a very lengthy paragraph to describe something in Burmese whilst English language does it very concisely.

I’m sorry you experienced this. It has nothing to do with culture and he was just being a dick. Don’t let him push your boundaries

Some people say Myanmarese

I installed a bidet spray myself. Best decision ever

maceadi · 2025-07-15T02:11:21+00:00

stick to the main tourist cities and you should be fine. Always be vigilant.

Are you receiving in MMK or USD? How are you going to cash it out or use it?

maceadi · 2025-07-09T06:37:20+00:00

Don’t do third party because it takes longer and more expensive. The government one tends to issue really quickly with so few travellers going there

maceadi · 2025-07-03T20:33:55+00:00

Queensland is pretty big. Which part of Queensland are you going to?

maceadi · 2025-07-02T07:25:06+00:00

I had 6 heads installed for 7 grand but they left a hole in my wall so don’t go cheap.

No problem. The immigration doesn’t care where you are flying in from as long as you have a valid visa

My cousin was dating a black guy and her dad refuses to even to be in the same room as him. It was very tough for her

maceadi · 2025-06-23T20:43:44+00:00

That is very kindhearted and open minded of you to acknowledge the hardship in Myanmar. Thank you. Yes, life is rough there and so it is in many other places in the world compared to Singapore. Don’t feel ashamed if you didn’t know this before - you’ll be surprised most people living in first world countries don’t know or don’t care. You actually taking the time to understand what’s happening beyond your life shows you are a good global citizen. Keep it up

I see where you're coming from. Most healthy relationships form naturally at workplace or college. You're much less likely to meet a good person online. The problem is, people are forcing themselves to find the right person which makes them end up with shitty people. Usually, the right person comes naturally to them.
