			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Elvira’s Paradise has come to a temporary standstill, construction wise, until we find an investor, we have had a number of enquiries resulting from our search, but none have actually come up with the money. </p>
<p>So to keep myself occupied I agreed to run in the Mrs. KFAANT, which stands for the Katherine Filipino Australian Association of the Northern Territory. It is a quest run every second year to raise funds for the KFAANT. I was approached by the President, Mrs. Rose Hewitt, Marichu Rawson and probably my best friend Mrs. Judy Payne and asked if I would enter the quest.</p>
<p>The winner of the quest is determined purely on the amount of funds raised by each contestant. This is the major fundraising venture by the Association, therefore a successful quest is most important to the Association, it needs the funds to pay for the rates, electricity, maintenance and if there is any money left in the bank, some capital works programs.</p>
<p>Some people have told me that I am crazy for entering the quest when I have so much on my plate. They tell me that I should concentrate on developing the Tourist Park, but if you can’t contribute to your community and try to improve the lives of the people around you, why were we put on this earth?</p>
<p>The final counting of the funds raised is to be held on Wednesday 27/08/08 and the crowning of the Mrs. KFAANT is to be conducted at the Annual Bario Fiesta on Saturday 30/08/08. Some of the Stalwarts of the Association are providing the entertainment for the evening by way of a number of traditional Filipino dances, and each contestant is going to showcase their talent as well as joining in with the local Filipino dancers for one number.</p>
<p>The other 2 contestants will be performing dances from the provinces that they come from and I will be singing, I hope. My voice hasn’t been up to scratch lately, due to a mild attack of the flu. Hopefully everyone will enjoy the evening of Filipino entertainment and food.</p>
<p>Meanwhile I am waiting for our first shipment of Cabins, Gazebos and Household and Garden furniture to arrive. It is scheduled to arrive in Australia by the end of September now, due to the cutback of ships coming to Darwin from Asia.</p>
<p>The hunt for one or more Investors continues as well. There is somebody out there in this big wonderful world of ours who can see the financial advantages of an Investment in Elvira’s Paradise, we just have to be patient and they will come. As it says in the Kevin Costner movie, “If you build it they will come”.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;">When I was 15yrs old we had quite a few relatives living in our house in Davao, amongst them were my first cousins Virgie and Wilson, and my second cousins Dante, and Tata. Dante was studying to be a priest but had decided to pull out; he entered University to study accounting. Even though he already had a girlfriend he was showing an interest in me, as well as a few other men in our area, but I was too shy to entertain their attention.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Dante used to help me with my homework and would sit close to me at the kitchen table. One night while he was sitting next to me helping me with my homework he put his hand on my leg, and I thought “oh my god I’m not a virgin anymore”. That’s how naive I was at the time. Anyway one thing led to another and eventually we started a relationship.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> We tried to keep it quiet, as we both knew that my mother especially wouldn’t like it. We used to go to the movies after school and go for walks on the beach nearby. One time when we were at the movies an uncle of mine saw us and told my mother. She hit the roof; as a result she kicked Dante and me out of home. Dante went his own way and I was left to my own devices. I was 16 by this time and had nowhere to stay; none of my relatives helped me for fear of upsetting my mother.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I ended up staying with a lady, who was a neighbour, who knew of my predicament. She told me that I could stay with her and she would help me continue with my studies, I was so grateful to her. I would get home from school and cook for her and wash her clothes and clean the house. There was one thing that I found confusing about her, she slept through the whole day and stayed out all night. I was only with her for a couple of weeks before I gathered the courage to ask her why she went out every night.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> She told me that she was seeing different men each night and that they gave her money that is how she had enough money to support me. It dawned on me that she was a prostitute, and I couldn’t bear the thought that I was being supported by a prostitute. It went against all of my religious beliefs. I decided to find Dante, as my current situation was partly his fault.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I finally tracked him down and convinced him that I was now his responsibility, and we got a room to rent. I fell pregnant with my first child during my 17<sup>th</sup> year. When his family found out that I was pregnant they told me that they would pay me if I got rid of the baby or gave them the baby after he was born. I used that money to go to Zamboanga; Dante had a brother there who was a doctor. I didn’t go there to get rid of the baby; I just wanted to get away from Davao until it was too late to get an abortion.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I only stayed with his brother the doctor for a few weeks. At first Dante’s brother didn’t want me to stay with him but I convinced him that it was Dante’s baby and that it was his families responsibility to look after me somehow. Dante was aware of where I was but didn’t tell anyone else in his family. Once I was 4mths pregnant I went back to Davao to stay with Dante. But after I went back he didn’t stay home much and when I would ask him why he always told me that he was working or playing basketball. One day I followed him and found out that there were 2 other women who thought that he was living with them.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> How he managed to have 3 women all thinking that they were the only one that he was living with, I still don’t know. I contacted both women and they said that as I was the one that was pregnant they would leave Dante alone. We lived happily, or so I thought.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Before I gave birth my mother got sick from Meningitis and was admitted to hospital, I tried to visit her as often as I could but my sister told the nurses that I wasn’t welcome there, so sometimes they would refuse me entry into the hospital ward. When my mother passed away, at the age of 32, I would go to our family home to make sure that my younger brothers were being looked after. They weren’t.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> My father was already seeing another woman only 2wks after my mother died. In the area that our family home was, all of the houses were abutting each other, and a fire started that couldn’t be put extinguished. Even though the fire started over a kilometre from our home we only had time to get the families clothes, we couldn’t save anything else.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> All of the residents who lost their homes were billeted in the local school assembly hall. That was the last time we saw our father for quite a few months, he moved in with his girlfriend, soon to become his second wife, and told us that we would have to look after ourselves. I made sure that the younger ones had somewhere to stay, my sister went on her own, my brother Rueben took care of his older brother Bulloy, and Nilo and I looked after Eric and Jun Jun.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]-->When I went into labour Dante took me to the hospital. I was in labour for 27hrs most of which was spent in the corridor of the maternity ward. While I was there a doctor came to examine me and during the examination I felt an immense feeling of relief while the doctor was seeing how dilated I was. So from then on every time a man walked past in a white coat I asked him to examine me, it really did relieve the pain.</p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Finally when the first doctor who examined me came back I asked him how many doctors were on duty, he said he was the only one. I now imagine that the first bogus doctor was the cleaner or something and he went and told all his friends, and they took turns at wearing his white coat. Some people may think that this is funny, but it was a long time before I did.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> When I awoke after the baby was born it was over 2 days since Dante had brought me there. I asked the nurses if anybody had visited me and she told said that not one person had come to see me or enquired about me. In the Philippines if you don’t pay your hospital bill they won’t let you take your baby home, so as soon as the nurse left I bundled up my baby and escaped from the hospital. When I got home I saw that Dante had taken all of his clothes.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I knew that there were only 3 places that he would go, Cebu, Zamboanga and Manila, as he had relatives in those cities. I wrote these three names on pieces of paper, folded them up and prayed for a long time for god to let me pick the right city. I picked Manila; I didn’t know anyone in Manila. Remember I was 17, naive, and alone. I packed a bag with all of my possessions and went to my grandmothers house to tell her what I was going to do, and asked her if she would send Eric and Jun Jun to me once I found somewhere to stay in Manila.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> She gave me all the money that she had, which was only 5pesos, and told me that we had a cousin who was a purser on the Williams shipping line, and he worked on the ship that ferried between Davao and Manila. I stood at the bottom of the gangplank to the ship waiting to see a lady of the right age to follow up the gangplank. I knew how things worked there, I would follow a lady up the gangplank but a little behind her, carrying my baby, I would be stopped by the attendant and asked for my ticket, I would then tell him that I was the babysitter for that lady up ahead and she had my ticket.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> In the Philippines you never question someone who you think is rich, so he let me go. I sat on the deck out in the open trying to avoid the ticket collector, but he finally came to me and asked for my ticket. I admitted to him that I didn’t have a ticket but that my cousin was the purser on the ship. My cousin was called, and I introduced myself to him. I begged him to let me stay on the ship until Manila and that somehow I would repay him if he paid for my ticket.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> After he did this for me I had another surprise, they found Eric. He had followed me onto the ship and hid in a toilet until the ship had left the harbour. Being only 4 years of age I had to admit that he was one brave little boy, but it meant that I had to ask our cousin the purser to stand me for another ticket for Eric.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Kelvin, my baby, was hungry, cold and dirty, and was crying constantly. A lady came over to me and told me that for some reason she felt connected to the baby and asked if she could hold him, she also gave me some money to buy some milk for him, as I didn’t have breast milk due to my malnourished state.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> While she was nursing my baby I told my story about how I had done my raffle and Manila was chosen to find my baby’s father. But that I didn’t know anyone in Manila and I had placed my trust in God. I showed her a photo of Dante, she was shocked, and she told me that she knew him. He was a distant cousin of hers and she was going to Manila to his wedding.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> When we got off the ship, her father and mother were waiting for her; she introduced me to them and was slapped in the face, in front of me, for bringing me with her. I explained the situation to them and told them that we had only just met on the ship. I forced them to give me a bed for the night and promised that the next day I would leave them alone.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The next day I found out where Dante was working and went to his office. There I showed him his baby and convinced him to take us in and cancel the wedding. We then moved into a room that an Aunty of his had. They were very poor and survived on the pittance that Dante’s mother sent to them. Once Dante’s mother found out that we were living with them she stopped sending them money. Of course eventually they told us that we would have to move out, because they would starve without his mothers help.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The night they turned us away a cyclone was battering Manila. We walked until we got to Munoz Markets where we could stand out of the rain and wind, we just stood there for hours, until eventually I asked Dante where we were going to stay. Thinking that he was the man and would know what to do. He said that we would just stay there until someone feels sorry for us and takes us in.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I was not going to just stand there and wait for something to happen. Eric was already picking up the centavos that people were throwing at our feet. Passers-by thought that we were beggars. I handed Kelvin to Dante and told them all to wait there; I would find us a place to stay.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I picked up the skewers that were thrown on the street, they were used to skewer the chicken feet that were being cooked and sold on the sidewalk. I then stuck them in the ground as I walked and I kept going until I found a sign advertising a room for rent. I knocked on the door of the house with the sign and made a deal with the owner to let us stay there on the promise that I would pay them as soon as we could, and that I would cook and clean for them as well.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The room that she gave us had a dirt floor, I mad a hammock for Kelvin so that he wouldn’t have to sleep in the dirt and Eric lay across mine and Dante’s legs to keep him off the floor as well. Dante and I slept sitting up. Dante lost his job as soon as he broke off his wedding because his wife to be was the manager’s secretary. But I have to give him credit; the day after we slept in the dirt he got a job as a taxi driver.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> A soon as we had saved some money I went off again to find somewhere better to stay, that is how I met the woman who I will call Mummy for the rest of my life along with hundreds of other people whom she has taken into her home. Mummy had a big house not far from Munoz Markets and someone told me that she often rents rooms out and that she is a very kind lady.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I went to Mummy’s house and told her my story and straight away she said that I could stay in her spare room. Compared to sleeping on a dirt floor I felt as though I was in a palace at Mummy and Kuya’s house, Kuya is Mummy’s husband, and he likes to be called Kuya because he likes to think that he is everyone’s elder brother. A nicer couple you would never meet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="../"> </a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;">An investment in the Tourism Industry in Katherine in the Northern Territory of Australia is a sound <a href="../">investment</a>. In the Katherine Times, Katherine’s weekly newspaper, on 16/7/08, the front page says TOURIST NUMBER UP.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> A manager of one of the Tourist Parks is quoted as saying that it has been a bumper season. His park and others have been booked out every night, serving 100 meals each night to the hungry tourists. The caravan park in question has a capacity for 500 and they have even had to let caravans camp in areas that have been designated as no parking areas due to lack of available accommodation at other Tourist Parks in the area.</p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> If this doesn’t prove that an <a href="../">investment</a> in Elvira’s Paradise is a wise investment then what will. Elvira Loquias has a 79acre property with approval to develop a Tourist Park. She is looking for an investor to contribute $300,000 to help complete the development.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The difference between her Tourist Park and the others in Katherine is that it is the only Park in the Katherine area that didn’t get flooded in the 1998 flood, so not only will the Park be successful during the tourist season it will also be the best place to stay during the wet season. Because of its location you can be certain that the guests and their property will be safe even if Katherine gets another flood where 6ft of water inundates the main street.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> In the same article it says that the Tourism Authority believes that visitors are staying in Katherine longer due to the ever increasing attractions of the region, even the huge upswing in fuel prices hasn’t deterred the tourists from coming to Katherine. The Authority itself encourages investors to consider and <a href="../">investment</a> in the accommodation industry in the region.</p>
<p><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:&quot;">It also states that one problem facing the tourist industry is limited accommodation options, Elvira’s Paradise will help solve this perceived problem. Elvira with the help of further<span> </span><a href="../">investment</a>, will be providing Bali Hut style accommodation and quality furnishings. The quality of accommodation has not been seen in a Tourist or Caravan Park in the Northern Territory before now.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;">Tourism NT recently commissioned a tourism research Group at Charles Darwin University to help develop a vision and positioning for the industry in Katherine. It revealed that the primary motivator for people coming to the region was Nitmuluk National Park and its Gorge, fishing and indigenous cultural experiences.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Its position was also mentioned, being on the only road leading to and from Darwin and at the crossroads to the east and west. In the news article in the Katherine Times on 16<sup>th</sup> July 2008 it is quoted as saying that The Nitmuluk Gorge was perceived as being a motivator for an initial visit to the region but people returned to the region because of other attractions available.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> This is why an <a href="../">investment</a> in Elvira’s Paradise is a sound investment, despite the ever increasing cost of fuel the tourist numbers are growing, each year surpassing the previous one. In another article in the same newspaper it states that the lack of four star accommodation in Katherine is a hindrance to keeping the tourists in the region for longer stays.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> S<!--[endif]-->hould Elvira Loquias find an investor willing to invest the $300,000 that she needs to complete her Tourist Park, she will be providing accommodation of a 4 star quality. The investor can be assured of the security of his <a href="../">investment</a> because Elvira is offering a 40% share of the property and business.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> With the value of the property being estimated at over $1.2m on completion of Stage 1 this means that the astute investor will have made a profit of over 50% in less than a year, with a continuing 40% share of the net income generated by Stage 1.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> What an <a href="../">investment</a> opportunity. But thats not all, the mining industry is booming in the Northern Territory. Within the next 2yrs, that is by the year 2010 there will be the opportunity to provide accommodation and meals for the staff of 3 mines that will be beginning production. They have already let it be know that they will be needing to accommodate their workers in or around Katherine.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Without doubt a Tourist or Caravan Park, if you prefer, with motel or cabin style accommodation will be a very secure <a href="../">investment</a> in the Katherine region. There already is a dire need for more accommodation facilities in the region, what will it be like when the mines commence.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><a href="../"></a>The <a href="../">accommodation</a> market in Katherine, Northern Territory, Australia, is booming. There are hardly any houses or units for rent and no rooms for rent. Very few of the Caravan Parks in Katherine accept permanent tenants, preferring to save their sites for the tourist market.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> By comparison to other regions of Australia there aren’t even many homes for sale on the open market. If you are thinking well there must be plenty of land available in or around Katherine you would be wrong. The last residential block to be sold went for just under $90,000.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The cost of building a reasonable home, not flash just reasonable, is in the vicinity of $300,000. So for around the $400,000 that you would have to spend you will get a rental income of $300 per week. Some would say that it isn’t a bad return.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I have a proposition to put to you. For a similar amount you could invest in Elvira’s Paradise, the newest Caravan Park in Katherine. Your capital growth would be higher than it would be if you bought a home, and your return on investment would be much higher.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Elvira Loquias is looking for an investor to become a partner with her in Elvira’s Paradise, she is offering 35% of the freehold and the business, in return for a $300,000 contribution. This money will be used to complete what she has already started.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Elvira has already invested over $550,000 in this project, once completed it is estimated that its value will exceed $1.2m, giving you a profit of $120,000 in only a few months, plus 35% of an estimated $60,000 profit per annum for Stage 1.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Being situated on a total of 79acres there is plenty of room for subsequent Stages. Mine worker’s <a href="../">accommodation</a> will be a priority by 2010. Elvira has calculated that the 50 cabins requested by the mines being developed in the area will provide a profit of over $1m per annum after completion of that Stage.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I have never seen a development with such potential as this one, nor have I ever seen an <a href="../">investment</a> with such security of returns and capital investment. This development cannot lose, Tourist <a href="../">accommodation</a> in Katherine during the dry season is scarce and available motel accommodation during the dry season is virtually non existant.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The NT Tourism authority shows that over 800,000 tourists come to the Northern Territory each year. Most drive and all who drive must pass through Katherine no matter where they are heading in the Northern Territory. <span> </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;">Someone please tell me, how do I find an Investor for Elvira’s Paradise. I must be doing something wrong because it can’t be the returns that she is offering or the security.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Where else can you get a probable 100% return on your investment within 2 yrs. The security offered is a 40% share of the property and business. If you consider the medium term of the investment i.e. 5yr returns you as the <a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">investor</a> will probably quadruple your money.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> So it can’t be the return, is it that people are hesitant to <a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">invest</a> in the Northern Territory of Australia. I can’t imagine why, have a look at the growth of the Northern Territory. Tourists are continuing to flock to the Territory despite the cost of fuel.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The mining sector is booming especially in the Katherine Region, in the not too distant future there will be a dire need for accommodation for the mining staff. This will affect the tourism industry if we don’t do something about increasing available short-term accommodation.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> I was talking to a friend the other day who lives in Emerald in Central Queensland. He was telling me that all of the caravan parks and motels are fully booked because of the mines in their area. Nobody could confuse Emerald with a Tourist destination, it is only a stopover for people who are travelling further west, and a tourist has trouble finding accommodation in Emerald.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Some of the parks are only offering donga style accommodation, and they are getting in excess of $300 per week for single bed in a donga. At Elvira’s Paradise Elvira is going to have Bali style huts and quality décor. Katherine property values will explode in the next couple of years due mainly to the mining boom but also because more and more tourists are learning about the Northern Territory.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Where else can you go for a holiday and be absolutely guaranteed that it won’t rain between the months of May and October and the temperature is usually hovering around 27deg during the day and rarely goes below 15deg at night. We in the Northern Territory take our weather for granted, but the visitor’s wake up in the morning and say “what a beautiful day”, our answer is “this is what every day is like”. Just another day in Paradise, hopefully, Elvira’s Paradise.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> In Darwin’s “The Sunday Times” on 6/8/08 there was an article about the accommodation shortages in Darwin and Kakadu, the same, only more severe, applies to Katherine. There are many caravans parking along the side of the road because they can’t get a site in one of the caravan parks, they are all full.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Elvira Loquias’ project is in a win/win situation, except for 1 thing, she needs to find another $300,000 to complete the project. If you research what your costs would be to set up another similar project you would be looking at having to <a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">invest</a> well over $1,000,000 to achieve what she is trying to do.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;">Elvira’s Paradise is looking for an <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">Investor</a>.</strong> Somewhere amongst the millions of people using the Internet there must be someone who is interested in investing in a Caravan Park in Australia, or knows someone who wants to invest in one.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:black;" lang="EN-US"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Elvira is looking for someone to help her continue with her development. She is prepared to offer a percentage of the freehold and the business. This will give the <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">investor</a> </strong>an immediate realization of his investment, as well as excellent potential returns. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:black;" lang="EN-US"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> She needs $300,000 to complete Stage 1 of the project; in return she is offering a 35% share of the property and business. She has 79acres only 10klms from Katherine in the Northern Territory of Australia. Stage 1 will utilize only 2.5acres of the property leaving plenty of room for further development.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span lang="EN-US"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Once completed, Elvira’s Paradise will be uniquely positioned in the market place. The first Tourist Park when entering Katherine, in a flood free zone, with a quality of accommodation and décor not seen in Katherine or even the Northern Territory. Presently there are 7 Parks catering to the tourist and 5 locations with Hotel or Motel style accommodation, all of which are full during the tourist season. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The Motel style accommodation available in Katherine is all the same, one could say generic. Elvira’s Paradise will be providing Bali style accommodation, quality timber buildings and furniture; décor that is pleasing to the eye, a spectacular swimming pool and beautiful well maintained gardens.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> There is a dire need for another caravan park in Katherine as the existing parks are booked out; some by up to a year in advance, and the motels have an excellent occupancy rate of 90% for the tourist season. The mining industry is booming in the area, so even the low season will begin to show high occupancy rates, once the next 2 mines have commenced full production.</span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText2"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> </span>Do your research, have a look at Tourism trends for Australia, especially in The Northern Territory. Tourism NT, the marketing body for Tourism in the Northern Territory says that the NT had 853,000 overnight visitors and holidaymakers for the year ending March 2008. Most of these visitors travelled through Katherine, nobody comes to the NT without a visit to its Capital City, Darwin, and if you don’t fly into Darwin, that is if you drive, or travel by bus or train, you have to pass through Katherine.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The greatest opportunity we have is the commencement of the 2 new mines in the district, should we be successful in the tendering process, we will have an immediate need for more accommodation facilities. The mines have an expected lifespan of at least 10yrs and will pay for the accommodation of its miners whether there is a tenant or not, and this is 7 days per week 52 weeks of the year.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:1.3pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> If you ever meet Elvira Loquias you will see that she is a unique, determined and ambitious woman, she has a heart of gold and helps anyone who asks. Should you decide to become and <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">investor</a></strong> with her, not only will you be getting excellent capital growth and returns, you will also be helping an unforgettable lady achieve her dream.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:27pt;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;">I have been reading a lot about <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">Investment Angels</a></strong>, but where are they. The only place that they seem to be found is in sites that require an upfront fee to join in the hope that you will find one on that particular site.</p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The problem with that is that I would think that the majority of people in need of investors don’t have the sort of money that these sites require to join. Another thing is the people requiring investors have already spent every cent they had on trying to get their project off the ground.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Let’s face it, you wouldn’t be looking for an investor if you had the money to continue with your project, and it is a big risk to spend $1,000 up front in the hope of finding an investor. If there really are <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">Investment Angels</a></strong> out there why can’t the fee be charged when the deal in completed.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> It doesn’t seem very angelic to me to ask for fees in advance with no guarantee of success. Don’t <strong>Investment Angels</strong> browse the Internet looking to do their good deeds?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;">Why do they need to register on a website that is obviously set up with profit as their only motive.</p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Don’t get me wrong, we all need to make a profit, but I hesitate to spend money in advance in the hope that you might get a ticket in a raffle, and then you have to hope that you win the raffle. Do you get my drift? Let me pay a bigger fee after you find me an investor.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> The <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">Investment Angel</a></strong> websites will tell you that they have to get paid upfront because of all of the work they have to do to help you find an Investor. I am not asking you to do my financial plan, business plan, my tax or anything else other than introduce me to an Investor and let me do the selling.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> Let me give you an example: &#8211; A lovely little lady called Elvira Loquias is looking for someone to invest in her newly approved Tourist Park in Katherine in the Northern Territory of Australia. She needs an investor because costs have blown out; it has taken so long to find the tradesmen to do the job that their prices have gone up.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> It is all a matter of supply and demand, the tradesmen know that there is more work than they can handle so they just keep putting their prices up. Elvira had allowed $300,000 for the development, now she needs another $300,000 to complete the project. You might say that she didn’t plan it very well, you are wrong; the price of materials and labour has doubled in the last 12mths.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]--> If an <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">Investment Angel</a></strong> is out there, be an angel to this angel. Elvira’s Paradise will double your money in a very short time. On completion of Elvira’s Paradise your $300,000 investment will be worth $500,000, not only will you have 33% of the freehold you will also have 33% of the business.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align:justify;"><span lang="EN-US">Elvira’s Paradise is in the business of providing quality and affordable accommodation, short and long term. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;">Its aim is to provide a relaxing atmosphere in aesthetically pleasing surroundings, mainly for tourists who are touring Australia. Giving them a friendly, restful place to relax after their day’s activities.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Elvira’s Paradise has been developed in a manner to cause as little disturbance to the environment and it’s natural surroundings as possible. All development and structures are complementary to the natural surrounds, not obtrusive, using first class materials to meet world-class standards.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;">Each site, whether it be a cabin, caravan site or camping site has been designed and created in such a manner as to give the occupant a feeling of being in the Australian Outback.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--></span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;">Elvira Loquias migrated to Australia in 1988, immediately gaining full time employment. Working mostly in the clothing industry as production manager for various medium sized companies. Branching out on her own in the form of E.M.L. Marketing Pty Ltd. Currently holding a contract with the Department of Defence as the Tailor at RAAF Base Tindal, Katherine, NT, Australia.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Six years ago she branched out into Property Development, buying and renovating houses for the purpose of renting out rooms rather than the full house. The strategy being that return on investment is greater than what would be attained otherwise. Expanding on this theory she decided to go into the business of providing accommodation for tourists in the Northern Territory.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->The tourism market in the Northern Territory has been strong in the past and is still growing. Tourists are attracted to the Northern Territory from all over the world. The attractions are many, Aboriginal Culture, diverse species of wildlife (most notably crocodiles), the Outback, the vastness of the Northern Territory, to name but a few. A tourist can drive for 2,000klms from the southern border to the northern beaches of the Northern Territory and 800klms from east to west. Katherine is situated approximately 300klms south of Darwin, Australia’s gateway to Asia. All Australians have the desire to travel throughout the country, it is bred into us at an early age and is an ambition fostered in the schools. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Overseas tourists come to Australia to see the wide-open spaces of the Outback as depicted in movies such as Mad Max, Crocodile Dundee and Wolf Creek. If a tourist is driving to Darwin from Eastern, Western or Southern States they all have to travel through Katherine. A survey conducted in 2007 showed that on one night alone there were 84 caravans parked along the roads around Katherine due to their inability to secure accommodation. The tourist season is during our dry season spanning the months of April through to September, but more and more tourists are discovering the wonders of our wet season.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:black;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Elvira is looking for investors to help her continue with her development.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoBodyText">Elvira’s Paradise is looking for <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">investors</a></strong> to help complete Katherine’s newest Tourist Park; it is situated only 10klms from Katherine, the true centre of the Northern Territory. It is at the crossroads from all points on the compass. If you are travelling to Darwin no matter where you are in Australia you have to drive through Katherine. Accommodation in Katherine is at a premium, during the tourist season it is virtually impossible to get a room or caravan site unless you book in advance or get lucky early in the day.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:27pt;text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Elvira’s Paradise is the only Tourist Park site within close proximity to Katherine that didn’t flood in 1998. It is being designed to give the guests the feeling that they are in the bush, the sites aren’t placed side by side like sardines in a can.</p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Consider your return. An investment of $300,000 will get you a 30% share of the property and it’s income. That means that when the development is completed you will have your total investment realised. The estimated value of the property once stage 1 is complete is approximately $1.2m, 30% ownership of the Park recoups your capital outlay immediately with a nice little profit of $100,000, we haven’t even started to calculate the 30% share of the income of stage 1 and all future stages. Where can you <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">invest</a></strong> your money with such security and returns?</p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Stage 1 is only using approximately 2acres of the total property. Being a 79acre property there is plenty of room for expansion. The balance of the property is a bushwalkers paradise with rocky outcrops to climb, sink holes/caves and little canyons.</p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->The wildlife is abundant, and dozens of species of birds can be viewed all through the day, including black cockatoos, rosellas and galahs to name a few. At present the Rosellas are calling Elvira’s Paradise home. Kangaroos and wallabies call Elvira’s Paradise home as well.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:27pt;text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Occupancy rates in Katherine exceed those in other areas of Australia as Katherine has a very reliable tourist season, as well as a super strong rental market, gold and other minerals have been discovered near Katherine and 2 of these mines have let it be known that they are looking to accommodate their workers in or around Katherine.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:27pt;text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Imagine if you got in on the ground floor of the accommodation market in Emerald or any other well-established mining town. This is your opportunity to <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">invest</a></strong> wisely and get a great return.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:27pt;text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->Elvira wants her Paradise to be a unique Resort, it will have an Asian theme with Bali Style Huts and Décor throughout the Park, complimenting the natural looking Swimming pool set back against a rocky outcrop, with a gazebo up on the hill overlooking the pool. The camping area, set beside the pool also will have gazebos for the comfort of campers.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:27pt;text-align:justify;">If you ever meet Elvira Loquias you will see that she is a unique, determined and ambitious woman, she has a heart of gold and helps anyone who asks. Should you decide to <strong><a href="http://elvirasparadise.com/">invest</a></strong> with her, not only will you be getting excellent capital growth and returns, you will also be helping an unforgettable lady achieve her dream.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right:27pt;text-align:justify;"><!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]--></p>
