That works because they own houses over there and frends who can sell them stuff at discounted price. I did the same there. The finnish anon isnt allowed to own real estate over there.

That was back home. One ship every month. No airport.

You mean the cook islands or french polynesia? And don't I have the right to buy and own real estate in french polynesia as an eu citizen? I understand that many of the local patriarchs might not want to sell though

>I am sure its very easy to clean up 500k dogs on thousands of extremely remote islands

The problem is that the authorities always opt for sterilization, which is expensive and totally inefficient, you operate one while ten more are popping up in the bush. Whereas it would be easy to kill 100% of the dogs and 80% of the cats in no time for a fraction of the budget.

I looked it up again and it seems as though in the cook islands all foreigners need to seek permission from the local authority in order to settle there, so pretty unlikely probably. But for FP:

>European citizens can purchase properties in French Polynesia just like any Polynesian or French national.

International (non-European) buyers must have government authorization for all foreign investment to ensure the money is ‘clear’.

I'm assuming that by European they mean EU

>>199183879
I was in charge of the bureau that regulates the purchase of real estate and you cant purchase real estate unless you can justify that it will benefit the local economy (ie youll create a certain amount of jobs for us).
Eu law does not apply to us and eu citizen are treated the same as other foreigners.
Thats established local case law.
>>
>>199184477
https://www.properstar.com/french-polynesia/buy

There seems to be a decent amount of property available, even with 0 connections. And connections can be made too (of course many will simply refuse). So it looks like I will be able to buy if I simply get the money part sorted out
>>
>>199183569

They cant lmao. You need government authorization thats in local law

Weird if thats the case since all of the info online seems to suggest otherwise.

Well, I guess I'll find out the answer definitively when I start actively looking to buy property

I went to timor instead

Keep in mind our regulation is the most lax. Cook and samoa only allow natives to buy.

I was stationed on Yap Island while in the Air Force. It was comfy af and we had to go to Guam for supply runs. Guam has these enormous frogs that get flattened by cars and trucks. when they dried out we used them for frisbees.
you get tired of being on an island for awhile but if you're there long enough you never want to leave.

>>199186193
Very. Its really poor and quite expensive compared to sea or western indonesia (eastern is quite pricy). Theres also more crime supposedly but i never had any issues, i lived on a coast and in the highlands and i liked both. People are Nice, scenery is amazing and its really quaint. Maybe ill go back there and create my company. Ill try going to africa as well first to scout for islands.

I'll still test the waters but yeah doesn't look very promising especially after the Dutch anon's testimony.

I see, I had just assumed it would be like the amazon rainforest on land. The unique plantlife is something I think would be really cool to see, almost like going back in time to a previous age of the earth (French Polynesia)
Same with Socotra, but I don't even know if you can get there safely nowadays.
At least the water is so clear that if you pay attention you should be able to avoid most of the dangerous water critters, right?

>>199188298
jellyfish are transparent and urchins look like rocks
>>
>>199188381
We have these tiny jellyfish in the baltic but they don't sting or anything.
Are the urchins really that hard to spot? They stand out from what I've seen in nature docs. Stepping on one sounds hellish, I'll admit that.
Personally I'd be grossed out by those huge crabs that hang off of rubbish bins and can snip your toes off (and eat birds)
