Stepping Stones
What New Zealand looks like to immigrants
This made me laugh. According to this report on New Zealand Immigrants from the ABC, the rate of residents leaving New Zealand is growing at an alarming rate. The funny part is that most of the growth is due to residents that weren’t born in New Zealand!
New Zealand residents are able to come to Australia to work and live without even applying for a visa. If the trend continues, Revenue Minister Peter Dunne says New Zealand will become a “transit lounge” for immigrants.
Even immigrants know that Australia is better than New Zealand.
