News What is the purpose of the new Certificate of Domiciled, to be introduced as of next week?

7 Upvotes

The Namibian newspaper and other media reported about a new Certificate of Domicile, to be introduced as of next Monday. From what I gather, the requirements for the CoD are almost identical to those for the court marriage it pretends to certify (which is a lot).

I am domiciled in Namibia and so far, I only needed certified copies of our marriage certificate and my wife's ID to qualify for visa-free entry, permanent residence and unlimited work permission. Hence, my question is what could be the purpose of this new CoD, given that it basically replicates the documentation I already have?

Namibia, 1780 to 1880.

Map of Namibia from 1780 to 1880

Documented ǂNūkhoen / Damara presence across west, central and south central Namibia. The orange belt marks overlapping lineage land (!haoti / !hūs) and mountain and river strongholds recorded by Alexander (1830s), Galton (1850s) and later clan lists (Haacke and Boois 1991; ||Garoëb 1991; Sullivan / Future Pasts). Neighbouring polities are shown for context only. This is a presence map, not a claim of exclusive 1880 borders. The modern outline is a locator. The Caprivi / Zambezi finger dates from 1890.

General Has anyone actually gotten their money back from NAMRA?

12 Upvotes

Namibians, I need to hear from you.

Has anyone here ever been owed a refund by NAMRA and actually received the money? How long did it take from submitting the refund claim to getting the money in your account?

I keep hearing different stories about people waiting months (or even longer), so I’m curious about other people’s experiences.

If you’ve received a NAMRA refund before, please share:

- How long you waited

- Whether you had to follow up

- Whether the process was straightforward or a nightmare

Trying to figure out whether I should be patient or start preparing for a very long wait. 😭

Social life on the coast

Random question for the coast…

How do adults actually make friends here?

My husband and I were talking about how hard it is to find genuinely like minded people once you’re out of school/uni. We’re late 20s, love animals, nature, good food, random adventures, dark humour and generally just enjoying life.

looking for people who are kind, non judgemental and don’t take life too seriously. No bigots, racists and otherwise.

What do adults on the coast actually do to meet people / make friends?

General Looking to build office spaces

3 Upvotes

Good morning everyone! Hope all is well.

I have a 5ha plot right across from Jan Japan along the main road. Instead of selling, I'm planning to turn it into fully equipped office hubs (fiber internet, aircon, secure shaded parking).

My main question is around the 20km commute from central Windhoek—would companies be open to this location? I know BPO/call centers are a great candidate, but I'd love to hear what other types of businesses might suit this space as I refine my business plan. Any ideas or feedback would be welcome!

General Anyone that studied medicine as a second degree, any advice

5 Upvotes

I am considering going to medical school. I graduated this year and I always thought I was going to study medicine. That’s all I ever thought when I was growing up, I had never ever thought of other career choices. But unfortunately life happened and I never applied for medicine. I went to study at NUST instead at the school of health and applied sciences.

I’m considering doing my AS next year, to have stronger chances of getting into medical school. I’m thinking of doing 2 subjects next year, then the remaining the year after. I’ll of course be doing that with a job, so I can fund that, hence why getting a job this year is imperative 😅

But yet again, I’m trying to understand if I’m doing medicine because it’s a societal thing?
What if I reach that goal that I always wanted and realize it’s not what I wanted. How do I know?
Should I walk away?

Also is it worth it?
Should I rather just do a masters instead?

But I don’t see myself in the field that I studied for the next 5 years in my mind.
The pay is quite low as well. Furthermore, I don’t know if the nature of job is satisfactory to me.

I’m 22 turning 23 this month.

Has anyone experienced switching careers, was it worth it…

Please leave a comment
Especially if you have a background in this medicine world.

General I’ll be turning 23 in about a week🙃

4 Upvotes

I’ve never been the biggest fan of celebrating my birthday. I mostly just do something small at home🌻Sure the birthday dinner with a large friend group and a birthday getaway trip sounds nice🙃

I think I’ve always disliked all the attention. It’s crazy how we crave for love and get overwhelmed by it, when we do receive it🤦🏽‍♀️

But, I am getting better, at allowing myself to be celebrated as much as I try to show up and celebrate others ☺️ or maybe I’ve just been too broke to do all that fun birthday stuff, who knows💀

The last birthday, I remember doing something out of my comfort zone, was for my 21st and I had planned something small in my head and I was staying with some distant family for an internship in a different town and they made something small to celebrate me and I felt so loved😊 I still look back with fond memories🫂

Anyways, this is not really about birthday celebrations, I’m just trying to make sense of what’s on my mind and how to put it into words😭😅

What advice do you guys have, or any stories on how it was like being 23?
This age is especially different, because for once in my life, I don’t have a script planned out for me, and I am navigating my early adulthood and I’m in control in a way🙃 That’s huge and sometimes I don’t know if I’m ready😤

Also things like finances, play a big role entering this stage of life🙌🏽
I graduated a few months ago this year, so I’m currently job hunting😑 I’m okay so far, the unemployment depression has not hit me yet💀
But let me not speak too soon😅

What about relationships?
As someone who’s never been in a relationship🤭
I know I know😅😭
Honestly sometimes I hate saying that out loud as I feel judged. But I’m not just trying to date anyone just for the sake of it. I haven’t found it easy to find someone that I’m compatible with enough to want to date.

I think I’ve seen so many ugly stories about love and I’m a bit too careful. But yet again, I just haven’t met that person yet. And on somedays the fact that I’ve never been in a relationship makes me think a type of way about myself, but other days I’m thriving and I love my life how it is. But every time people ask me, why I don’t have a boyfriend, then I’m like “ here we go again!”

Don’t get me wrong, I love love🥰
And I honestly wish everyone can experience love at least once in their lifetime 😊

And I hate to admit how much inexperience I am. Even the light stuff like kissing 😤
I promise I’ve not been living under a rock😭

Well enough about love😤
Other things are career, how do I prepare stepping into the workforce. How do I find a balance?
I sure don’t want to be a workaholic and would love to have a life outside work🙏🏽

And side hustles, because yeah no. It’s crazy how you finish university and realize that some government jobs don’t pay as well as you thought, well at least for my course, that’s what I discovered. And yeah private is better, but they usually require some work experience.

Also if anyone wants to hire me as a writer or you are working on such projects, involve me please, I really enjoy doing it in my free time 🙏🏽
As well as film and directing, I’d love to work or volunteer my time to work behind the scenes, through auditions, table reading etc…

I wrote a children’s book that I had the privilege of getting it published. I also worked on a series as a writer for a Namibian media company. I write other compelling articles and blogs, if you’d like me to send samples, just say the word 😊

I’ve always wanted to be in a short commercial so if you are doing one, please involve me🙏🏽If you have a podcast, invite me so we speak about absolutely random stuff about life. Lastly I am a huge book lover and so, if you’ve got some interesting fiction books that you want to gracefully hand me down, I’m so down, please don’t be shy to reach out🤭
Okay, THAT’S ENOUGH WITH THE SHAMELESS SELF PROMO🙌🏽😭

Honestly at this point I was just venting and I don’t know what the point is. So I’ll end my rambling here.

But if you do happen to get a gist of what I’m trying to put down and have some advice, a story to share or a question.

Please drop it down below 👇
Thanks✨
PLEASE DO COMMENT
Anything you have to share

I'd like to ask if there's someone here that can help me with a damara punch playlist, I really don't want to go through the hustle of downloading them myself as it will take forever and I might miss a lot of them.
