So, I think that the best advice. Be a RESIDENT NOT A CITIZEN.
Maybe in the intrests of the phill goverment to stop non phills from buying up and taking over the country.
But if the phill goverment woke up and realised the investment in the country might shoot up if it allowed controlled forigen ownership and people being able to take dual citzenship with full propety rights etc.
Most of Londons success is down to the fact people from all round the world can invest and work here.


Say i came to phill to live and run a business which betwen the home and business employed 10 people thats changing 10 families fortunes, and as the business grew it employed more and more people plus the businesses who i traded with could employ more people. Does it matter whether a phill or a non phill runs the company?

rant over thats why phill is for holidays only for me to much grief opening accounts as an alien and the like.
