Can't decide???

sobrang thank you sa mga reply niyo! now i can rest my mind. we CAN afford to have our kid study there!! haha, we don't have to leave him here after all! thank goodness.

sobrang thank you again sa inyo. now all i have to do is arrange everything para maka-start sha ng school year jan ng june (instead of sept, which i was expecting).

this is really a relief! thanks guys :)

For Philippine School-Doha:

Must have reservation (on-going for new students/transferees)

Reservation fee: QR100

High School Tuition: QR500/month (txtbooks & uniforms not included)+ miscellaneous.

Ask your spouse to call PSD #4364148/4364149 for futher details.

(I have kids studying there, high school & elementary)

Good luck kabayan!

Sorry! don't know much about Philippine School here as my kids go to British School, Because my hubby is British.

Thanks! Nicaq25 is there to answer your questions!

But I do know from my friends that they follow exactly the same curriculum in Philippines, also they start on June end in April. British Schools starts either end of August or beginning of September end on June completely different from Philippine School.

Sorry! again that's all I know!

Just keep dancing, it will do you good!

kiarajane, you seem to know about the tuition fee rates of the phil schools there, could you please tell me how much?

i've been looking all over for that information ever since i saw how expensive all the other schools are (i'm bringing my kids with me, and one of them will be in 1st yr HS this schoolyear), however, there's no available information anywhere online. i can't call them, coz i'm still here in the phils. and their email addresses dont work (my email to them bounced back!)

are they also following the 3 terms that other schools do? or is it the same here?

okei...Jrdebug, hoping for ur success too & to your family!

Really, i just chat w/ my husby & told him how i waited for him & our baby. He's excited too!

We'll both praying for it.

I thank too to the people whom just i knew in this website but willing enough to help (thanks to sl..)

Doha is far so good as long as u will come here sticking w/ ur principles & living all for GOD.

then,you will have the Glory!

-best of luck-

it's ok lailing. anyway, what u said is right. u helped both of us and for that i thank u. i informed my wife last nite abt these new advices and she got even more excited for me to get there.

have a nice day everyone...

thanks again!

hi,

if u only know till in my bed time i'll end up laughing!!!

No, coz its_quddus was addressing me "kabayan too".

Thinking he was a kabayan i did'nt see his profile yet that time.

sorry guyz,

it just happened that its_quddus asked advice w/similarity to jrdebug.

what matters most is that i've answered your questions in particular.

for the two of u, it's all my fault..

sorry guys! hahaha i'm laughing now!

just i read ur comment Jr...

Really i thought its_quddus is a Filipino!

hahaha, i'm so serious addressing him "Kabayan"

Whose profile i've seen?

Let me check guyz...

nweiz, good pm...

No, but still planning for my husby to come after paying all my debts...hahaha

It's hard to leave our baby behind but what we'll do in PHILS.? Is'nt it?

I found future here though hard to be apart from my fam.

But life is life.

Anyway, i'm hopeful to bring my fam here sooner depending on the opportunities.

no offense meant man.

there seems to be something wrong here. Quddus is not a kabayan. He's from India. although, there is nothing wrong with interacting with any other race. just to set the record straight.

Lai, if you are not working as a civil engineer, then what field are you in?

I think she Knows I am an Indian not kabayan... She has already set the record straight!! I am not understanding, what's going wrong??

something seems to be wrong here. first of all, quddus is not a kabayan. he is from india. just to set the record straight.

if you are not working as a civil engineer, then which field are you into now?

You can mail me on [email protected] or else [email protected] be waiting for your mail... Take care..

It has to be before 5.00pm. We finish work at 5.00pm. OK

i'll be the one to email u its_quddus just give me ur email add.

bye..

i'll be the one to email u its_quddus just give me ur email add.

bye..

Give me your mail I will drop a mail!!

Take care Lail... Bye..

We'll discussed later hah coz i have to go to my accom now.

Really thank you for your concern..

Yup its_quddus! sharing of flat here is allowed as observed.

In fact, this is one way to lessen the rental payments too.(some are dividing it equally).

For now, i'm searchig a 1b/r flat exclusive for us girls in the company.

It's going home time..i'll resume by 4pm

Thanks knowing u kabayan,

MABUHAY!

(just email me & i'll tel you my offer here pssssttt..)

You seems to be in Civil Enginnering trade. let me know If your husband is in the line or what is his backgound. I may be able to get somebody to help you but it deoends on his industry.

Lail... May God Open All His Happiness Door to Welcome You.. and so soon you will be enjou your life with your family!!

Hey at this point adding to the above discussion, Can I male and female share the flat in Doha?? I mean to say that, is this kind of relationship ok with Qatari's??

That's Preety good!! Hope you will get settle down soon, Yes you are right, family should come first.. what ever we are doing its all for our family.. Congr :-)

Now I am aggressively wanted to know Lail.. How much You are getting?? You didn't answer to my question "Are you there with your family??"

i already signed the offer sheet. sent it back to them together with the other documents. right now, it is just waiting game. but my wife sure is excited to go.

i have to have my family with me. they have to be where i am. that's what family's for, right? we just have to make do with what is on the table. :-)

kiara, i cannot find the Picnic Group Post. can you please point me to it?

thanks a lot guys!

My work also kabayan does'nt fit exactly to my field.

But I am patient...hahaha

All works/kind of job can be learned depending on your willingness.

You're right too, people who are well-versed w/ software are highly paid here. But u have a good offer at present too!

Hopefully it will come by the power of my PRAYERS!!!

GOD BLESS YOU!

Hey man you can go for it, but my openion is if you have family dont take risk!! first be sure for your side.. and than take the decision.. but now I believe after hearing form Lailing I did a mistake.. lets hope for the best!!

Best of Luck for you and your family!!

Are you there with your family??

That's true! Infact, they interviewed me in Doha. It was a permanent job. Well could you please tell me in that gross How much I could be save to my family??

Kabayan,

If I'll tell you how much offer i have, then u will regret w/ ur decison & hoping ur in DOHA now.

It's very low, but i accept just for a start here.

Your offer is good, start diverting now!!!

Its depend on your lifestyle I completly agreed with you!! But wht I realised after a deep servy, ppl are getting much more than what they offered in IT. Basically, I am Software engineer currently working for IBM India for the last 3 years.

Coming from IT background and entering in Airlines industry might be difficult and it may cause problem in future to my professional career... infact Abu Dhabi commerical bank offer me 15000Dh .. just waiting for there final Call.. Do remember me in your valuable prayers!!

It I were you I will take the offer. QA is a very good company. You can change your job after completion of your contract period. I think they will give you the release after serving your contact period. I havn't met a person who has resigned from QA so far to varify the issue.

gross monthly should be around QAR8,000 just the same as you quddus. actually, i am already receiving a higher salary than what i was offered there. and the position is lower also. but my main goal is just to penetrate the qatar market aside from the fact that the organization i am joining is quite prestigious. i'm sure both parties will benefit from this.

i am supposed to bring my family after 3 months but i would let things wait til after a year or until the end of my daughter's school year.

thanks again!

You can searched for 1b/r flat here.

You're offer is good as a Filipino.

Even how much salary/offer u have, if you're lifestyle goes beyond, still u will live unsatisfied.

It's okay...

Visit the Picnic Group Post. Wants to join for the trip with us

But you know I missed the chance, basically I am from INDIA and QA offered me for ground job, before declining to this Job I asked so many ppl in forum all suggest me not to take the opportunity!! Did I took a wrong decission ?? If "YES" than I will try to divert again ;-)

Cost of living here and in Saudi are the same. In our experienced here in Qatar they are more generous than any part of GCC.

But! that is depends on your category.

As a Filipino your offer is quite good as for a start and they have Philippine School here for your children and their school fees are not as expensive as British and American School.

Jobs for your wife are easy to find especially she's trained for this kind of job, as peoples favorite place to hang out here are coffee shops. Hope she get a job soon so she's able to help you to have an additional income.

When we first came down here the impression I get is the Qatari are very friendly and very civilized, until now we never have a problem with them compare living in Saudi where most of people are into keeping on eye to what others people do and put you into trouble, Here you won't feel that way!!!

So, Good luck for you and your wife!!!

Mabuhay!!!

Do unto others, what you want to do unto you!!!

I found a one bed room apartment in a villa with seperate entrance, big living and dining, seperate kitchen, attched western style toilet, inside carpark for 2 cars,surrounded by garden space, very modern and new furniture, fully equiped kitchen with 6 burner oven.

Price QR 4500 a month + W/E.

Two months paid upfront(1 Month deposit+1 month rental) and monthly rental on the 1 st of every month paid by post dated cheques.

Hello dear, Actually I was offered a package of QRS8000 total, but I rejected the offer sources said that this much of pakcage in not enough to survive with family!! will please assist me on the same:-)

By the way the some adds are coming regarding the rent house..are these rents are on monthly basis for example QRS4500 PM??

Thanks in Advance!!

Well, could you please tell the final lumsum amount including your Basic+HRa+Transporation and other allownces!!

Kabayan,

For me its just okay for a small family & hopefully your wife will be hired immediately.

It's common here that salaries are based from where country u are. It's a good start for you since you're new here.

Well, foods does'nt cost much & in fact i have a lower offer than you just i consider everything slowly but surely.

Or it's better to bring your family here maybe after 2-3 mos of adjustment.

WELCOME!!!
