My eldest works in Holland as a welder/plater. He found his job advertised in one of the redtop dailys.

No offence but you do realise that the Dubai property market has imploded and people are deserting the country in their droves to avoid being jailed for bad debts.

Exactly, the party there is well and truly over. Added to which many contractors apparently waiting months to get paid.

You'll need a Visa to work in Oz, check the Australian govt website as it's a minefield with regards to which visa to come in on, and they're tightening their belts at the moment.

If you can get employer sponsored visa all the better if it's just a working holiday rather than relocation.
