Prostitution in New Zealand​



From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Prostitution in New Zealand, brothel-keeping, living off the proceeds of someone else's prostitution, and street solicitation are legal in New Zealand and have been since the Prostitution Reform Act 2003 came into effect. Coercion of sex workers is illegal.[1] The 2003 decriminalisation of brothels, escort agencies and soliciting, and the substitution of a minimal regulatory model, created worldwide interest; New Zealand prostitution laws are now some of the most liberal in the world.[2]

Until 2003, indoor prostitution in New Zealand was governed by the Massage Parlours Act 1978, which allowed brothels to operate in the guise of massage parlours. However, the act defined massage parlours as public places, so laws against soliciting in a public place applied to workers in parlours, and they were sometimes raided by police posing as clients.[3] Workers in the parlours were also required to provide their names and addresses to the police. Advertising the sale of sex ("soliciting"), running a brothel, and living off the earnings of prostitution were illegal.

Legal in NZ. If it wasn't I'd be behind bars by now.

I will let my kids know.

Really no point going to University and getting education to become professional anymore.

I am quite anti-education these days.

I think being educated is a curse. Because if you know then you see all this crap you feel really dumb and angry.

But if you know nothing and people tell you all kind of nonsense and stories and what not. Just believe and be happy!

We should burn down all the universities.

Destroy all knowledge. Go back to the dark ages no books just internet.

What is your opinion then?

That the dentist and the clinic were good people trying to help patients even break rules to go help and don't deserve this punishment?

Or

That the dentist and the clinic break rules, cheat system, rules are rules, deserve what they get?

Or

Somewhere in between? LOL! :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
In the viewpoint of a dental patient/consumer,if he can pay in full $4K from his medisave a/c, he will be happy to do the tooth implant surgery. However, if he has to pay the balance of 2,750 in cash ,most probably he will postpone his tooth implant surgery.

One of the tenets of professionalism (especially for professionals eg drs, lawyers, dentists, accountants, engineers) is FIDUCIARY DUTY.

So it is not about view points from who and who. FIDUCIARY. Meaning professionals are expected to do things and act according to what is correct and in the best interest of society even to the detriment of their own business and personal interests.
