An open letter
21 July 2021 Dearest Joel, I hope you're doing well and safe. Today marks your 6th year in Australia. Congratulations for this milestone. To embark a new life in a foreign land is not an easy decision. It takes a lot of courage, patience and perseverance to begin everything to an unknown place. Jobless, homeless and with a very tight budget to begin with in your journey. I'm glad to know that you keep up with the challenges and never give up. You were able to attain your objective to bring your family members in Australia. In the meantime, while the travel restriction is in place, keep firm in your plan to bring along your dad for him to see and to explore your beautiful country. I'm also happy to know that you got your Australian Citizenship after 5 years of long wait. You took the long path and managed to satisfy all the eligibility requirements for provisional visa subclass and permanent residency prior to your citizenship. You were also able to work in Baida Poultry -
