Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Stages of Obtaining Indonesian Citizenship", you may read also "How to Obtain Indonesian Citizenship?" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Does Indonesia Implementing Citizenship By Investment?'.

One of the www.hukumindo.com netizens from abroad asked:"Like most of the countries, does Indonesia have Citizenship by Investment. Now USA, Turkey, many European countries are implementing it?" As the title above, this article intends to answer the question. The issue of citizenship by investment is not new, however, what should be observed is that not all countries apply this. Let's check it out.

Term of Citizenship by Investment

What Is Citizenship by Investment? Citizenship by investment (CBI) is the process that legally grants individuals—and, in some cases, their families—a second citizenship in exchange for a financial contribution to the host country’s economy.[1]

The concept of citizenship by investment was first developed in the Caribbean, with St. Kitts and Nevis being the first to offer the scheme in 1984. There are only a handful of countries around the world that currently offer a citizenship by investment programme, five of which are located in the Caribbean. 2018 saw another four countries announce their intention to launch citizenship by investment programmes – Jordan, Moldova, Montenegro and Turkey. Montenegro’s programme is due to be cancelled at the end of 2021, while Moldova cancelled in September 2020.[2]

Citizenship by investment Benefits. Having a second citizenship can help individuals avoid unfair persecution from certain states or escape from a conflict-torn region. It can also provide an alternative to political asylum, security from an unstable environment, or a better education and lifestyle for children.[3]

Countries That Implement Citizenship by Investment

List of countries offering Citizenship by Investment. It’s vital for investors looking to obtain citizenship in another country to know where they can maximize their investments. Here are countries where investments provide a profitable return along with citizenship:[4]

1. Malta

2. Antigua and Barbuda   

Antigua and Barbuda have one of the most competitive Citizenship by Investment programmes in the Caribbean. Their passport provides visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 151 destinations. The nation is an attractive place to own a second home, with excellent air links to North America and Europe.   

3. Austria   

Austria also offers Citizenship by Investment to foreign nationals, but the programme is quite different from other countries’ offers. Notably, Austria doesn’t have any passive investor visa programme, meaning applicants must actively invest in the Austrian economy. Investing in government bonds or real estate does not offer a golden visa.  

Benefits include visa-free or visa-on-arrival travel to 189 destinations, including Canada, Hong Kong, the rest of the EU and Europe’s Schengen Area.   

4. Dominica   

Dominica’s Citizenship by Investment has two options: Investing in real estate or a minimum of $100,000 of economic contribution through donation.

Montenegro grants full citizenship to investors who can invest at least €350,000 in the country’s economy through real estate and economic contribution. The passport provides visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 124 destinations, including Europe’s Schengen Area, Russia and Turkey.   

9. Portugal   

Portugal is one of the oldest countries in Europe. Investors may apply for the Golden Resident Permit Programme, unlike other direct Citizenship by Investment programmes. Portugal allows investors to obtain citizenship without having to live in Portugal.

Second Stage: Residing in Indonesia Territory for Maximum 1 Year and Extendable By Obtaining Limited Stay Permit Card (KITAS) Visa

KITAS is a 'Limited Stay Permit Card', before being named 'KITAS' it was called 'KIMS' or 'Temporary Resident Permit Card'. This card is intended for Foreign Citizens working in Indonesia so that they can stay in Indonesia (a kind of resident permit) and must be extended once a year. To get this card, you must have a job in Indonesia and be sponsored by the company where the foreign citizen works.[2] You may read the term and conditions to obtain this visa by reading our link article as follow: "Knowing KITAS (Limited Stay Permit Card) In Indonesia".

Faulty Weather Forecast Leading to The Emergence of a Lawsuit

Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Knowing the Terms of Visiting Visa in Indonesia", "I Have a Contract Whose Goods Have Not Been Delivered, How Do I Sue Under Indonesian Law?", you may read also "What Language Must Be Used In The Agreement In Indonesia?" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Faulty Weather Forecast Leading to The Emergence of a Lawsuit'.

How do you feel about rainy days? Most people love the sunshine and hate the rain. That certainly seems to be the case with a woman in Tel Aviv, Israel who decided that she should sue a television station over their weather report. She knows that the forecasters can’t change the weather, but she thought they could at least get the weather right. When they didn’t, she decided to sue.[1]

A woman in Haifa sued Channel 2, along with weather forecaster Danny Rup, in small claims court. She wanted to receive $1,000 because Rup had predicted on television that the day would be sunny. It turned out to be rainy and stormy. The woman had listened to Rup’s forecast and decided that she could leave home dressed lightly, and that turned out to be very inappropriate as the day turned nasty. Because she was out in inclement weather, she claims that she caught the flu and missed out on four days of work. She also spent $38 on medication, and suffered from stress because of the incident. At least she left out a claim for her messed hair.[2]

The woman says that she not only wants to have financial compensation for the suffering and sickness she endured, but she also wants Rup to apologize for getting the weather wrong. Most of us have watched weather reports on the news, listened to them on the radio, and read them in the paper for most of our lives. While the best forecasters using the latest state of the art equipment are right much of the time, they are never right all of the time. They are forecasting and predicting the weather, and many things can cause changes that turn a day from beautiful to bitter rather quickly. It is the way nature works, and even with the best guesses no predictions will be 100% accurate.[3]

Understanding courts? well not really. The TV station actually settled this case out of court for $1,000. Most would see this as a frivolous lawsuit, and many still find it hard to believe that she actually received any compensation. Further, she also received her apology. However, at least she was only suing for a small amount to cover what she felt were the damages against her. It does seem to set a precedent, at least in Israel, though.[4] And if you have any legal issue with this topic, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.

A couple in the northern Indian state of Uttarakhand are suing their only son and wife for not giving them grandchildren after six years of marriage. Sanjeev and Sadhana Prasad, 61 and 57, said they spent their savings on raising their son and paying for his pilot training and lavish wedding. They are demanding nearly $650,000 in compensation if no grandchildren are born within a year. The son and his wife did not appear to have commented. This highly unusual lawsuit was filed on the grounds of "mental abuse".[1]

Prasad said he had spent all his savings on his son, sending him to the US in 2006 for pilot training at a cost of $65,000. The son returned to India in 2007, but lost his job and his family had to support him financially for more than two years, reports the Times of India. Shrey Sagar, 35, has finally landed a job as a pilot. His parents said they arranged his marriage to Shubhangi Sinha, now 31, in 2016, in the hope that they would have "grandchildren to play with" in their old age.[2]

The parents said they paid for a wedding reception at a five-star hotel, an $80,000 luxury car and a honeymoon abroad. "My son has been married for six years but is not planning on having a baby yet," said Prasad. "At least if we have grandchildren to spend time with, our suffering will be bearable." The couple's lawyer, AK Srivastava, told The National that the couple were seeking damages "for mental atrocities". "It's every parent's dream to be a grandparent. They've been waiting for years to have grandchildren." The couple's petition, filed in Haridwar, is scheduled to go up to trial on May 17. The son and his wife did not appear to have commented.[3] And if you have any legal issue with this topic, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be happy to assist you.
