They've really kicked themselves in the butt with that one! What a joke. Interestingly Sprint and AT&T in the USA have discussed banning VoIP traffic, and Telstra in Australia is also strongly considering it. It seems that the interweb is now doing to Telcos what it did to the music and motion ...

Surely this can be done through certified mail to the embassy? I received no time benefit by having my degree attested in Australia, however, in your case it might be the way to go.

XBox 1 or XBox 360?

If it's an Xbox 1 you'll have to get a new power supply and pretty much fit it yourself. It's easy to do though, I've pulled apart dozens of XBox 1s.

If it's a 360 do a warranty claim.

OK I just read the article and think it must have been a slow news day.

It says quite clearly they did not conform to the policy regarding drinks, and that they had their bags searched.

Big Deal! It's indicative of SFA.

It won't be implemented until they revalue the Dirham, and it will be taken into account for the revaluation. i.e. with the revaulation, the cost of imported goods should decrease, and provide some headroom for the VAT. 5% is not much of a price hike. In Australia we introduce a 10% VAT (called GST)...

You could start the trend by sending 5% of your salary to the goverment (one large VAT) - its only half as much as Australia (and no income tax) so you'll still be way ahead. You're assuming I spend 100% of my salary. Added to that, as I mentioned with the revaluation of the dirham, the cost of imp...

I personally can't see prices remaining static if there is 5% VAT. Currently prices in Dubai are lower than say the UK for example as a result of the lack of VAT. For prices to remain static after the introduction of 5% VAT then somewhere somebody (ie. manufacture, importer, distributor or retailer...

Spin around in a circle,
rub your tummy and pat your head at the same time,
sacrafice a chicken (A bucket of KFC will do)
and they should magically appear.

Otherwise come to our next meet, say hi and who knows.

Try explaining that to the Zimbawge National Bank!


well, given the exchange rate, a 100% increase in the ZBG isn't going to do it any favours.
