Around me, there are quite a number of people migration to NZ. If you want to have a slow pace and don't bother able status, that might be a good choice.

which would be a good city in nz to live in?

is the degree of racism in nz as bad as that in certain sectors in australia?

i met a couple of new zealanders...they seemed cheerful, relaxed, not taken to offence easily

is that your experience too?

Auckland is the biggest city in NZ and the has attracted tons of Asians all over. Somehow in auckland, you kinda meet more asians than Kiwis! :biggrin:

Auckland to me is a good place in NZ.

Recently there was a protest oragnized in Auckland to protest crimes against asians due to the recent spate of crimes involving asian victimes. Guess what, the organiser is a former singaporean who migrated there 21 yrs ago.......

If there are loads of Asians in Auckland, then I would avoid the city like a plague. :eek:

Asians spoil all the neighborhoods they move into with their disgusting behaviour. :mad:

Wellington is also another option, quiet and beautiful but not so much of nightlife. Auckland is not recommended.

Thousands of New Zealanders cross the Tasman every week to settle permanently in Australia.

They do so because the long term prospects in Australia are so much better compared to NZ.

NZ is far too small to be able to develop a vibrant economy. It's something of a backwater.. ok for retirees (if they don't mind the awful weather) or someone who just wants a holiday home but not for someone who wants to build wealth.

I have to agree with you on this. If I am going as a retiree, basically, I will be deemed to have enough dough to survive on my own without having the need to find a job, so ultimately, they will not view us a a "threat" (trying to snatch their rice bowl). However, if we are going there as a working emigrant, then some of them will have a different attitude towards us. In short - they welcome people who go there to spend money but not people who go there looking for money.

I wonder if any Singaporeans settle in the South Island.

Burnt out Aussies who want a seachange will move across the Tasman.

It will be pretty nice to stay there long term if I can stand the cold ... and as long as there is a hardware store for my DIY needs, an Asian grocery store, cricket and fresh air.

There is a Singapore Club in Christchurch (South Island) and last I heard, there were about 100+ Singaporean families living in Christchurch. The numbers are gradually increasing year by year.

As for the cold, getting a well insulated home and good winter wear would definitely take care of the cold season. But one would eventually acclimatise to the 'cold' and shorter sunlight hours of Winter.

Your DIY needs are surely taken care of with the many large stores like Mitre 10, Bunnings, Placemakers etc. Asian Grocery Warehouse Stores are mushrooming all over Christchurch as well as many Asian take aways/dine ins too.

Cricket, Rugby and Netball are the National Pastime sports of NZ.

tons of Asians all over

Consider Argentina then. There are fewer Asians there..

angry_one · Aug 21, 2008

LOL or Mexico, Eastern Europe, Africa, Russia.

Asians aren't the only ones spoiling new neighbourhoods. The fundamental Islamists or Africans are much worse. Islamists even want to overthrow the governments that kindly let them stay. Africans always try not to pay for their meals.

Why is New Zealand better than Australia ?

Is it easy to find job in New Zealand now ?

zack123 · Aug 22, 2008

Are there specific conditions to migrate to NZ? e.g 1 million funds, etc etc?

Does everyone here on the member forums hate Singapore to the core? I was wondering. Well NZ is the best place to live in and the pace of life is slower. It is really true indeed. Very nice country with nice people. Peaceful and serenity.

But rest assured you all guys won't regret leaving Singapore to get a PR in another country. But to live in Singapre, everyone must be damn rich to be able to stay here. Actually Singapore is a great country with no natural resource. That is how most countries came to wonder "HOW THE FUCK SINGAPORE RAISE TO ECONOMIC POWERHOUSE?".

That is why so many countries and PM of different countries admire Singapore standard.

Well that is just my views. Maybe your opinion might differ. Till then have a nice adventure. But the problem is NZ pr requirement might be abit strict. :p

Are you sure it is so easy to migrate to NZ without contributing to the economy or investing in the country? :rolleyes:
