DA.T, Is it cheaper for PR to study there? I'm thinking that if it is cheaper in OZ, maybe i'll take a degree or master over there. Noscon, I used to live nearby UNSW Sydney but don't know much coz i only worked in Sydney. I think normal meal cost the same $7. I suspect Sydnye is...

** Retirement ** If we stay in Oz (>10yrs) and still a PR, will we be eligible for 'old-age' benefit after retirement age? I think i read somewhere in Centrelink webpage that we'd get the benefit if we're below certain income? I hope i'd hv enough income so no need to rely on govt support...
