“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Indonesian Government May Unlock Real Estate For Expats

Jakarta Globe, Dian Ariffahmi

Expatriates in Indonesia may soon be able to make the jump from being renters to owners, as the State Ministry of Public Housing announced on Thursday that it was planning changes to the law that would allow foreigners to own homes in cities and special economic zones.

Housing Minister Suharso Monoarfa said expats would be able to buy houses in special economic zones, such as in Batam and Kalimantan, where overseas companies receive incentives to run factories. Foreigners living in cities would be limited to owning apartments.

“I am not trying to indulge [expats],” he insisted at a seminar in Jakarta. Under the current law on foreign property ownership, expats are only allowed to hold fixed-term housing leases of up to 25 years, although they are permitted one extension for another 25 years.

The proposed change in government policy comes after numerous calls from property developers to ease restrictions on foreign property ownership, which has led to expats exploiting a wide variety of legal loopholes to indirectly own houses and apartments.

For example, an expat can give a local resident money to buy a home, with the parties signing an agreement beforehand that the resident would receive a loan from the foreigner worth the same amount as the home.

While the property is in the local’s name, it is signed over to the expat as collateral for the loan, making the foreigner the de facto owner.

“We have been asking the government to extend foreigners the right to hold leases to apartments and houses for a minimum of 75 years. But if it they be allowed to purchase property outright, that will be definitely good,” Teguh Satria, chairman of the Indonesian Real Estate Developers Association (REI), said on Thursday.

He added that relaxing foreign ownership regulations would make the Indonesian property market more competitive, compared to neighboring Malaysia and Thailand.

“Malaysia has already changed its property regulations. Previously, foreigners were only permitted to own two properties but now they are able to purchase more. They are even allowed to buy 49 percent of the apartment units in one building,” Teguh added.
