Hi Russell I already posted a reply to your question on your own thread earlier today, but to explain briefly... I have a long history doing NGO work here but these days I have a company that is involved in tourism. Apart from that, I also am able to offer my experience here to people who want help in getting set up in Madagascar. I specialise in helping people who speak English and don't want to deal with the authorities here in French. I can only provide the part that gets you established, such as your documents and visa. I can't help you with finding a job. But you know, to get set up in a new country costs some money, I'm not sure if you sound like you are ready? You cannot work in Madagascar unless you have a job offer from a Malagasy company and make an application to the ministry of foreign affairs, and normally, it would be your employer who did that for you, or, you set up your own company, get an investors visa, and that can over time be transformed into a permanent residents visa. Then you create business for yourself or your company subcontracts to another organisation. It might be easier for you to look at mining jobs, and ask your new employer to organise your visa. Do please be aware that Madagascar is one of the poorest countries on earth, the poorest country on earth that is not at war. It is not easy generating income here.
