BUILDING A FUTURE IN AUSTRALIA
To fulfill the physical presence requirements of the
188 visa, Cheah currently spends most of her time in
Melbourne supervising the grooming shop. She returns
to Malaysia every now and then to help her husband
with their business.
She is actively learning the business culture of Australia
as well. She attends weekly meetings with advisors
from the consultancy to discuss the management
and strategies of her shop. When ready, she plans to
operate this business completely on her own.
Cheah said her three daughters, ages 27, 22 and 16,
are ver y satisfied with their new lives in Australia.
