Dear All,
Hello.
My name is Amit Jain. I am from Surat, Gujarat, India. I do job in a Mumbai based company.
At this outset let me first thank Expat.com Website.This website helped me tremendously when I was doing the similar search work for Ghana one year back. Many contacts which I got because of this website are now my friends.
Thanks Expat.com.
As said from last one year I am in Ghana but now I will be shifting to Khartoum, Sudan and will be there from 27th September for a period of 1 year.
I will be working in the field of agri commodities.
I have gone through all the 99 forums, classifieds, other sections before posting these questions. I left nothing in the Sudan section unread. Some of the information is available but it is old.
Following are my questions:-
1. In which area should I live ? My requirement is 1 bedroom with kitchen and wash room (say a studio apartment). Budget up to 500 USD.
2. I am a pure vegetarian person. Is there any Indian restaurant which also serve veg food ?
3. What are the means of commuting locally ? What will be the approximate expense ?
4. Do hindi(bollywood) movies gets released there?
5. Is electricity and water in regular supply ?
6. Is english language enough or a person must be knowing Arabic?
7. Do Master/Visa affiliated debit or credit card work?
8. Is Khartoum and Omdurman twin cities ?
9. Is any Indian channel available ?
10. Is there any get together sort of thing by Indians?
11. Which mobile company's sim should be taken for local and India Calling ?
12. Which mobile company's sim should be taken for internet surfing ?
13. How many Indians live in Sudan as well as in Khartoum , any approximation ?
14. Any other precaution or a Sudani Custom which I should keep in mind ?
15. I have a Dish TV decoder with me in Ghana, will it work there and is it legal to bring it ?
Answer(s) to above as well as any other sort of help is highly appreciated.
