Married to Filipino and would love to move to her place (Davao City)

Hello, Dear All!
Greetings and Happy New Year...

I am from India. Married to Filipino. Since she likes it there, I would love to move to her place (Davao City). We are married in India and currently living in India. What are my possibilities to work and how much do I need to earn minimum to lead a family?  Please help me to take a wise decision. Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,
Praveen Kumar G

Very nice of you to think of your wife in this way.

For work you could set up a restaurant if that is your skill set.  Other wise not much work around, unless you have a specialist skill set, then I would recommend obtaining the job before you go to the Philippines.

The other option would be stay in India and fly her home more often so she gets to see her family.

For how much do you need?  This will depend on numerous things:

* How many flights back to India each year?
* How many children you have (food and education for them)?
* What sort of education do you want for you children?
* Do you want to own a car?
* Will you rent or will you buy a house/apartment?

If you want a car and good (top range) Philippine education for two children when in college (university)  (not at international standards) then you would be looking at around: 2,500,000php per year.

Great! Thanks for all your inputs.

We do not have babies yet. and We do not need to rent or buy House. she has her own house where her mom living. (A decent size house though).

I am not into the restaurant business. But, I have over 10 years experience in Recruitment, Staffing, Management etc. Is there any scope for such fields?

Here in India, I am earning around INR 1000000/annum. And we would travel only once in a year to India and back to the Philippines.

What could be the odds or supports?

Please post in PHP.

The rest is up to you.  Remember this is not a recruitment site, so please do not ask about direct employment here.

Good luck with everything.

I wasn't asking for recruitment. I was asking the scope of that area.

Anyhow, Thanks for your response.

Hi Praveen, I am afraid that there probably wont be many good paying jobs in Davao for you, since the city is still relatively small and there are not so many opportunities as in Manila for example. Maybe this article can help a bit.

What I would do in your situation is find a job online first before you move to Davao. https://jobstreet.com.ph is a good place to start.
