China more flexible regulation on permanent residency for foreigners



Foreigners who have lived in China 10 consecutive years will be eligible for the "green card" , according to a draft of a proposed regulation.
The document and other amendments intended to ease the requirements now required to grant permanent residence, are currently being evaluated by the Ministry of Public Security.
 an expert on immigration issues Beijing Institute of Technology, revealed that the ministry proposed to lower the threshold for those applying for this status during a symposium held last August, and is evaluating the reaction of experts.



The aim of the measure, according to Liu, is recruiting most immigrants field leading technologies for more than 10 years living in China and want to apply for permanent residence, provided they have spent at least nine months each year in the country. Many of them have jobs, housing and a good tax registration. The success of your application no longer depend on their position.
The current regulation requires applicants in the technology sector, a deputy general status or Associate Professor (or higher) for at least four successive years.
If the new proposal is approved, more foreigners will be eligible for a residence permit.
the Ministry of Public Security, said in October that his department is working with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a document that could lead to greater issuance of residence permits . 

 The Ministry of Public Security confirmed that the proposed regulation is being prepared, but did not give more information because of the sensitivity of the matter.

Police in Beijing, about 850 foreigners have applied for the permit and more than 780 had been cleared until mid-October.
China approved about 248 applications per year in the technology sector from 2004 to 2011, a low rate for a country eager for knowledge, said Liu, who attributed these poor figures to the rigorous regulations.
"The current method of assessing the contribution of foreigners to China by the range of his post is biased and also deters other experts to come, he added.
In addition to evaluating the position of the applicants, Liu recommended the Government to classify foreign sectors and make a relationship with the professions most needed for potential immigrants.
As for immigrant investors to applicants that establish a company, Liu said that the proposal also suggests reducing investment criteria.




 


The first Chinese law covering the entrances and exits of Chinese and foreign, Regulatory Law and Out, was approved in June and will take effect in July 2013, will lead the increase in the number of green cards.
Huiyao Wang, deputy director of the China Talent Research, an institute of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, said the government is also considering expanding the use of permanent residence permits.
HR authorities soon issued a document will give people who have green cards have the same rights as Chinese citizens, except the right to elect and be elected.
Under the new document, those with the card can be used as vede the travel certificate, in addition to registering at hotels, he said.
"Most importantly, the permit is expected to eventually build a personal network by associating the bank account, the number of insurance and health account. This will make life easier for foreigners, "he said.
 Require a minimum of 10 years living in the country, since China is one of the most popular in the world.the residence permit for foreigners provide a sense of security, especially those who are married and have children.The green card applicants normally have spent much of his life in China and are deserving of the advantages of a residence permit.

History of Indonesia




Indonesia is a country whose territory is occupied for thousands of years, not in vain here lived the Java Man, one of the oldest on record. The history of this archipelago before and after becoming a country is impressive, it is a story full of historical moments.Java Man, the Papuans, Malays, Polynesians ... all of them were going through here, until the Europeans arrived, and until today. 

Indonesia is Southeast Asia, which is why this is a region with important business contacts with countries like India or China, constructed its civilizations, an activity that being on the coast of Sumatra, near the Straits of Malaka, this Archipelago was an important geostrategic location.In Java, for example, the kingdoms that had happened in their best expressions monuments, is why Indonesia is a country with a wide range of religious temples to visit Buddhist temples such as Borobudur, the largest this religion exists worldwide. 
Already in our era, during the time of the Buddhists, and the Indians began to appear the first Indian Muslims, a situation that began in the eighth century and that today results in an Indonesia that has the largest Muslim population in the world. 

The Europeans arrived in Indonesia until well into the sixteenth century, in particular the Portuguese were first to do so, interested in trade, after the Dutch arrived, the creation of the East India Company, and the business of sugar and coffee. In the nineteenth century the Dutch controlled much of the archipelago, area, and global trade in these products. The Dutch took control of the area, a situation that lasted until 1945 when after a Japanese invasion of the island in August 1945, with the Dutch out of it and just defeated Japan in World War II, Indonesia proclaims independence and the Republic of Indonesia, endorsed in 1949. 

Indonesia thus becomes one of the first democracies in the region, a situation that is short, since a coup in 1965 gives power to the dictator Suharto, a general who had the support of the CIA to overthrow the left government. It's when the economy becomes embroiled in a crisis by falling oil prices in the 70s. Suharto was in power until almost the XXI century, in an era of confrontation and tension, until the first democratic elections in 1999. 

Today, Indonesia is torn between his problems of different religions in the country, hardly unifiable, and tourism that seeks emerging in places like Riau, Bali or Jakarta its wonderful beaches and its equally impressive and comfortable hotels to stay during their holidays in Indonesia, an ideal place to spend your vacation in one of 6,000 islands.

Malaysia

Malaysia has grown from a developing country that depended on the production and export of raw materials, to become one of the most rapidly industrialized and third richest in Southeast Asia. Under the New Economic Policy (NEP) launched in 1970, which sought a better distribution of national income and diversify the structure and ownership of the economy, hitherto dominated by the Chinese community (which caused several ethnic clashes), Malaysia has become one of the leading producers of electronic components in the world. It was also the first country in Southeast Asia to develop a national car .




When the NEP ended in 1990, the industry accounted for almost 30% of gross domestic product (GDP), a high figure compared with 20% a decade earlier, in 2002 accounted for 33.5% of GDP. In the early 1990s, industrial products accounted for nearly 60% of total revenue from exports, and today the figure is similar. In 2006, construction accounted for 2.70 percent.
The tertiary industry also expanded very rapidly under the NEP and services today are the most important economic activities. In 2006 accounted for 41.3% of GDP. Tourism, like financial services, has grown substantially since the 1970s and today provides numerous foreign exchange earnings. Since the 1990s, Malaysia is a major tourist destination, with 17.5 million visitors in 2006, which was 4.018 million dollars of foreign exchange earnings.




  


Although over 90% of tourism visits peninsular Malaysia, tourism in Sabah and Sarawak is also growing.

In 2006 the gross domestic product (GDP) was estimated at 150,672,000 dollars. This amounted to $ 5,769.90 per capita, one of the highest in Southeast Asia.
