Work / South African wants to move to Poland, please provide some input? [59]

@StanislawSA

It is sad to hear about S.A. Try to persuade your husband to move to Australia, New Zealand or Canada first.
If you want to know whether you are allowed to move to a country, you can contact to its Embassy in Pretoria, they have some information on each embassy's website and follow the instruction.

Where do you live in SA?

Life / Advice to buy a 7-seat car in Warsaw (Peugeot 5008, Ford S-max, Ford Galaxy...) [6]

Thank you Bod.
I finally changed my mind and bought a 5-seat Ford Mondeo Combi car, year 2011, at Ford Auto Plaza, Warsaw.
The price is high if comparing to buying from users but they gave me 2 years guarantee. I am quite happy with that.
Now i am looking for another used car for my wife, using your searching techniques and advice.
Thanks a lot.

Travel / Most beautiful small towns / villages of Poland [49]

Thanks admin for merging my thread.
Thanks all of you for advising me of nice towns to visits. I already printed out all of your recommendations for our following weekends.
Last weekend we visited Uniejów, had warmbath there and got into the town nearby to have lunch. The town is small and peaceful with a small church.

We were in a restaurant where they serve polish foods and pizza. Not mention polish dishes, all of us, adults and children were so happy with their very big and delicious pizzas there.... Foods are much cheaper than in Warsaw.

We spent that night in a hotel and hold a birthday party there. We went back to Warsaw yesterday after having 4 hours shopping in Lódź.

Happy in Poland and wait for the next weekend. May be we will visit Kazimierz Dolny or £owicz, depends on times we have.
Thanks.

News / What are notable differences between Poland's National Security Strategy 2007 and 2014? [9]

You are right.
Besides, i think there would be another notable difference - with bigger and stronger threat, Poland will not rely too much on any nation and institution but has to be more independent to protect itself. This also leads to what Kowalski said above.

Of course I didn't found any 2014 version either.

President signed yesterday and hopefully the new version will soon be released.

News / What are notable differences between Poland's National Security Strategy 2007 and 2014? [9]

It was almost 2 weeks after Government adopted new National Security Strategy (21/10) but i see there is not much comments about it.
I can see full version of Poland's National Security Strategy 2007 but i don't see the 2014 version. I am wondering that when it be released or may be there is sensitive contents that it won't be made public?

The 2014 Strategy is constructed and adopted when political situation in the region is very stressed and unpredictable. So, you guys experts, please tell me what are notable differences between National security Strategy 2007 and 2014? or may be just looks to buy more NATO standard weapons?

Life / Please suggest a good garage in Warsaw to fix Toyota Yaris!!! [3]

Hi,
I have problem with accelerator of my Toyota Yaris.
The car stops at traffic light and when i want to speed up, it accelerates slowly as if there is not enough fuel, or not enough air...

I have the feeling that it can not run with its capability.
I think it has mechanical problems with engine air filter, oil filter, fuel filter or fuel pump or event problem with exhaust (stuck, for example).

Could anyone tell me a realiable and affordable auto garage to check and fix it. I am in Warsaw Centre.
Regards,
NB

Work / How much does a lieutenant colonel get in Poland? [8]

Yeah, i've heard that after around 20 years of military service they can retire. However, if they want to serve more, they also can apply to serve until 60. Is that right?
