According to http://www.gsa.com, an increasing number of governments have recently introduced mandatory registration of prepaid SIM card users (interestingly rejected by USA and UK) primarily as a tool to counter terrorism and support law enforcement efforts. However, to date there is no evidence th...
Most golf tour companies will have some clout and might get you a better green fee rate or t-time. We have used them in the past, they are very reliable, got us some deals on green fees and driver always waiting to take you home. If you book your own taxi, some of the courses are quite far out of to...
There is a British lady lawyer works for one of the forum sponsors, Chavalit and Partners. She was recommended to us and has helped a lot of expats with property purchase, writing of wills etc. Not sure if she could help your father, but you could ask the question.
