Very interesting
« on: April 12, 2008, 12:16:58 AM »

reffering to a remark from Mark to bob, i find this very intersting ! never thought of it like this

'Our'  'problem' is the 'western approach'.

We think 'laws are laws' and 'rules are rules' - yes they are here also - BUT :-))) and I could tell you a story or two, all about incredible things done completely legally and recommended through the lawyers.... So the confusion is working for both sides. Not only against you.

There is no set of rules that could not be looked at in one way or the other. So the approach, the knowing of the right people, the compariosn of how you can obtain what where through whom.... is the most important thing.

Instead of asking 'what do I have the right to do or have here' - one should simply ask 'how do we make this or that possible'.

It works fine normally - and people are very helpful, also in the governmemnt - if duly respected and if you deal with the right level.:-). Lower levels might be confused or fear to overstep their competence.

So don't be afraid of the 'mine-field'. Normally nothing blows up - but yes, one could loose a fair bit of money for nothing if one is not knowledgable. Just don't rush into anything.

See you soon!
