New Zealand tightens visa rules: Govt says migration levels are 'unsustainable'

- New Zealand’s government is reducing the number of migrant workers it accepts.
The new visa restrictions are a way to get more locals into employment and ease inflation.
But the change in policy will leave some workers and employers
worried about their future.

The interviewee got it a little bit wrong. The cutback is for immigrants who can't speak English and are being exploited by employers who sponser them and charging fees, working excessive hours without pay and no days off. Non emglish speakers are also being ripped off by immigration agents charging huge prices to file free documents. Agents in countries of origin are charging and promising migrants jobs that don't exist. They arrive and work illegally because they can't afford to get home and their families need money. They are predominantly Indian, exploited by their own culture, and Phillipina, who arrive to a non existing job. Basic English will help them navigate their rights once they get here, but it's the country of origin that's at fault. Raising the bar to enter makes agents more accountable.
So basically it will help curb expIoitation? If what you're saying is true, then that's good. Unfortunately, many will interpret these measures as a victory for raclsm, and celebrate because of this idea.
Yes, the new rules are to help curb exploitation. Many of the workers are employed by their own people that have New Zealand residency. There has been under employment and some firms especially in construction have failed and gone into bankruptcy.
@TD1237 I agree. This is how this government dressed it. There is terrible exploitation, and migrants are charged upward of NZ$20,000. This awful government are, however, racist and I don't like them.
@@AilsaPehilabour party is racist divided the country by with there racist policies no surprises the Muppets got voted out. Typical labour supporters plays the racist card when they don't get what they want
@@TD1237 So wanting a holt on immigration because we can’t house everybody is racism?….duhhh
The phenomenon of people of Asian descent relocating to Europe or Anglo-Saxon majority countries for work is often referred to as immigration. Conversely, when individuals of European origin move to Asian countries for work, they are commonly referred to as expatriates. This disparity in terminology raises important questions about the perception of migration and the inherent biases within it.
That's because most Europeans that move to Asia aren't intending to live there permanently. Their visa is usually limited to work permits and they have limitations on getting citizenship. Immigrants move to European/Western countries fully intending to start a new life there and eventually get citizenship. That is the main difference, expatriates may move to Malaysia but never will become a Malaysian citizen while a Malaysian that moves to New Zealand usually intends to become a New Zealand citizen.
The reason for this is simple, the western expat has nothing to gain by becoming a Malaysian citizen (In fact it's a negative because Malaysia bans dual citizenship) while the Malaysian that leaves Malaysia usually is tired of the political instability, racial discrimination and unrest in their country. Calling a westerner an 'expat' has nothing to do with the race he is but rather his intentions on being there and the reality is a very large majority of the time the Asian is moving to the west for permanent reasons while the westerner is moving to Asia for temporary ones.
Very well explained 👏 thank you.
Most westerners who live in Asia do not intend to become citizens. They also do not suffocate government/health care infrastracture because they pay for it themselves. Asians who live abroad benefit from "free services" that can only take care of a number of citizens.
Every aussy and kiwi regardless of their ethnicity who works in mines, drill sites or rigs over seas are called expats. No one who actaully uses the word confuses the difference between living and working
@@riptyurass302 It has everything to do with race. When a "Westerner" moves to Japan or Thailand, Bali etc with the intention of living there permanently they are still referred to as "expats". If someone from Japan or Singapore moves to a Western country they are referred to as "immigrants" yet both acts, the act of moving to another country to live permanently is the same. Yet, if someone from Malaysia only works abroad but has no intention of living there permanently they are not referred to as expats but are assumed to be immigrants. Just like the automatic assumption is that "Westerners" have no plans to live in a non-Western country permanently. And the fact that you think a Westerner has "nothing to gain" ignores many factors. Westerners will move to make their money go further by living in a place that is cheaper to live. Or they met someone.
That first lady just doesn’t want to pay the regular amount to the employees she wants to cheap labor.
Who doesn't?
She should be paying minimum wages at least. She's not wrong either, when I worked at McDonald's while at university, probably 80% of the staff were international students. Locals are too good for this
@@garryjohnson6794people that aren't welcome to our country
@@garryjohnson6794people who aren't welcome here
the white people feel like theyre too good to work on kitchens etc. this is why service industries in richer nations typically hire immigrants.
NZ is not kicking migrants out of the country. What a silly statement to give airtime to, Al Jazeera.
I think they would be if they changed the PR requirements for low-skilled migrants
They will be when the work visa runs out, now after 3 years instead of 5.
Al Jazeera isn’t known for factual reporting
I love how there is No New Zealanders Interviewed in this vid!
i know same problem in Australia and UK and when they get into positions of power, they lose the focus for those born in those countries.
You mean the natives before the WHITES CAME?????

This is the news channel to watch for news biased against the evil and racist west. Just look at the owners.

At the moment the Australian govt, is only playing lip service to cutting back immigration to appease the growing number of Australians who are voicing their concerns about over immigration. Last month a record number of immigrants arrived here more than 100,000 in just a single month. We are seeing more new arrivals a year than the populations of some of our largest towns and all in the middle of a housing crisis..Sorry but as an Australian I am more interested in the future of my own children and grand children than looking after the needs of foreigners. 760,000 people are in this country on tempoorary student visas which may make the education industry really profitable but as a country of only 26M people how exactly are we supposed to to house, find employment or provide essential services for all these people ?. There needs to be a halt put on immigration until the infrastructure can catch up or at least cut it right back as they did in the past when it became unstainable. Other countries being targetted by immigrants like NZ, Canada, UK are finding themselves in the same position and their citizens are saying enough is enough.
Good point! As someone who started of as a student and now employ 6 Australians and referred countless Australians to high paying jobs, I think government first need to find out an alternative to sustainable their Universities.
I do agree on your view of Australian first, however a lot of effort needs to be made before we shut the door.
International student pays up to 70% of the cost to run an university, 20% by govt and 10% by Australian students. If we stop international students, HECS alone will not be enough to fund the university. There is a reason international students are called cash cows unfortunately.
plus employers many from the same countries who have residency and agents in those countries are exploiting some of these people breaking labor laws, because these people not know their rights and it puts strain on the economy and public services.
Totally agree . Australia went into and still in a wrong Road. I came to Australia 26 years ago. After my divorce recently, i can’t afford to buy a buy a new house. My rent for a unit I living in is 40%increase in 2 years. I feel no hope is awaiting ahead at age 45.
Australia- pls Look after poeple who already here first , look after new generation who will be unable to buy expensive houses in all cities in Australia first. Do you hear me?
I don't see any benefits to the every day Australian of a huge international student intake. It just makes the top administrators wealthy. They can't even give their lecturers salaries let alone the negative economic impact it has on Aussies.
In Australia a large majority are temporary majority migrants.
Australia should have a look at this and do the same
They have already started to reject student visas
Yeah, no offense, but when I go to Australia, I want to feel like I'm in Australia, not China, India, or Pakistan. I'm not trying to sound mean, but when I travel, I expect to be among the locals. If I go to China, most of the people are Chinese, same for India and Pakistan, so why can't it be the same for Australia or European countries?
Because, foreigners are willing to pay more to study in Australia, then locals, blame your administrators, money over Aussie’s.
@@faa1412 Don't get me wrong, I agree with the idea that Australia should prioritize the people who are born there, but your reasoning is that you want to see Australians when you yourself are a visitor? There are many reasons why they should limit immigration, but so tourists can see more white people isn't one of them.
Also, did you not consider that some of the people you saw were also tourists like yourself? By your own logic we should also ban tourists like you.
I feel sorry for the indigenous black Australians who had their country stolen from them by European invaders.@@faa1412
Double dip recession , building companies going under , housing crisis , supermarket profits 📈, wages 📉 rent 📈
NZ reality
world wide reality thanks to the weak govts that locked everyone down during covid and printed money. Devaluing your dollar! whilst everyone sat at home. Shame on Labour.
New Zealand had a change of government so that means everything changes.
thank god for that, although 6 years of putting kiwis to their knees has destroyed our ppl
Dont believe that for a second.
@@user-hk2vp7il4o national as bad as labour both are useless, labour with covid measures and cycle lanes all over and national unemployment again
Hopefully for the better.
Why didn't they interview anyone from NZ on the street about this
As a New Zealander, I can say that we barely even see this information. Most have no idea that this is even happening, so we don't really have an opinion.
@@rebeccaRYX87 Okay thanks for that from a Kiwi
Nothing in comparison with Canada...
Smart move, Australia has to do also.
Yes, there is a lot of abuse and exploitation by immigrant employers (ethnic).
New Zealand doesn't need Uber drivers, Retail workers, or taxi drivers. A lot of people who come here on other visas take low skilled jobs which can be easily taken by Kiwis.
New Zealand is a small country.
Good on the government for tightening visas.
New Zealanders dont really want those jobs, or theyd be taken
@@plyjhnycut off the flow of cheap foreign labour and eventually the wages will rise to workers expectations. Stop the cheap foreign labour or at a minimum ensure the low skilled immigrants have no chance at citizenship.
@@plyjhnyI apply for those jobs constantly and get denied. I am māori. I've worked in customer service for over 5 years, looking for work for almost a year now and no one, I mean NO ONE will even give me a try. I have the skills, experience and am very willing to learn new skills all the time.
The industry I work in is completely overrun by Filipinos and Indians, a great amount of them speak broken English to the point I'd have to deal with several of their clients. Citizens get overlooked because you foreigners don't seem to know that public holidays exist. Which is wrll and good for you and the company, (I purposefully work public holidays alot purely because I actually enjoy working) but it's not common for new Zealanders. We relish our time spent with family or even on ourselves.
@@plyjhny You know this how? Our local supermarket (a major chain) is full of full and part time Indians who are hired by Indian managers. I know a lot of people who want to do those jobs but can't get past handing in an application that goes nowhere.
@@oneday458 I have had to start applying for jobs outside of my experience and skill range. F2f Hospitality, retail, supermarket etc. Not that there is anything wrong with them, but I don't even get call backs for those jobs. Seriously?! I'm lucky to have some support but for goodness sake I feel like begging at this point for someone to just give me a try. I'm tired and over it.
Exploitation is a serious crime. It’s compared to modern day slavery. Unfortunately, it still exists in many countries too.
Yep, its not even illegal or regulated in Singapore, Qatar, UAE and other 'developed' countries in Asia/Middle East. They take your passport and work you to death.
No mention on increased and out of control rent and housing fuelled by high migration.
Cutting back on immigration during recession makes sense. More nations should do it.
Unless they are trying to force Recession. This is exactly why US and Australia are flooding the countries with immigrants
Canada is doing the same
Too little and too late.
Lololololololol….. sure after they already shat on everything they kinda have no choice but to! At turdeaus will, he will bring anyone into the country even if it’s criminals if it means he will get a vote…
@@AletheAce Canada still sitting on a gold mine of natural resources. They will be ok.
i’m sorry people but NZ dosnt look like NZ anymore. NZ dosnt have to apologise to the world for taking the steps to be more discerning in its immigration policies. maybe you are not aware but kiwis are under distress at the moment and they have a housing crisis. not to mention a recession. a large majority are living below the poverty line .
Thanks mate. People seem to glaze over that stuff.
@@heyman4590 no worries. even though i’m not living in NZ at the moment. I worry about NZ and our fellow kiwis . proud to be kiwi but how can the average person enjoy their birth place if they can’t afford to live . basically NZ is being dismantled. it’s heartbreaking.
By kiwi do you mean indigenous Maori or 3rd generation English and Irish settlers?
@@andreflavell3453 it's not just the infrastructure created around the political unrest. It's also the quintessential Kiwi attitude has become almost non existent. I see that we blend in with what's around us more now as opposed to being authentic to you or even being just positive. It's quite discerning to see and feel the jovial, it's alright mate way of being just slowly disappearing. I know all new Zealanders aren't the same but good God, I wish I could go back and be an adult when I was a child. People were so much nicer to be around.
A large majority of new zealanders live below the poverty line??? What world do you live in
The first woman interviewed spoke is a Nepali but spoke in a Filipino accent.
That means, like in the Middle East, Singapore, Hong Kong and everywhere the restaurant industry is staffed so much with Filipinos, that the non-Filipinos are picking up their accents. This is a phenomenon I see very much in the Middle East and it always hits my ears.
The people voted for these policies and now they are being implement. Sorry whats the problem? Its called a democracy
It's about time it changed. The current policy suppresses wages, so the rich business owners get richer. Make New Zealand Great Again!
As a citizen of a third world country,it’s disheartening to see rich countries treating us like s**t but the reality is that people here go to extreme lengths to migrate to other countries….So lets hope time will come where the reverse will happen….
The sad part is that most of you wouldn't even come here to live if your countries weren't the way they were. But let me ask you this if a war broke out in your new country and they were recruiting migrants, would you join? Or flee back to your country?
They can’t take everyone in.
I don't think it would happen 🤷♂
Well, maybe stay away from where you're not wanted.
Excuse me you whuckwit. Your people coming to my country just because they worked hard does not mean they should automatically be allowed citizenship. You bring broken English so no one can understand you, you bring your own countries views and make no effort to learn the culture of the place you are benefitting from. Do you even understand that they are decimating the city I grew up in here in NZ, just to house foreigners. The living conditions arent as great as yoi seem to think they are. Cost of living crisis is real here too. You people will soon outnumber the actual natives of this country and I am not here for it. Take your attitude and your people back with you.
I am not entirely sure, but the same phenomenon might happen in Germany in the next few years.
There are 4.2 million immigrants to 900,000 first nation indigenous. Its pretty sad 😔
same here in Canada. too many foreign workers immigrating to the country. All the entry level jobs that are supposed to go to young canadians are being taken by foreign workers. and the government of Trudeau is doing nothing about it.
because the corporations who support and sponsor the liberal party love it. They get a near infinite pool of disposable, exploitable, cheap labour.
Been happening in South Africa for over 2 decades now. My Mum said waitressing jobs used to be done by low skilled Black and Coloured South Africans and young adults still sorting their lives but now all those waitressing jobs in almost all eateries and restaurants in tourist areas if SA like Cape Town, Durban etc and nationally are occupied by low skilled Zimbabweans, Congolese, Ghanaians, Kenyans, Zambians etc; all doing waitressing jobs whilst they probably came into South Africa on student or tourist visa and overstayed. so SAn restaurant business owners also hire them more as they can exploit them…only pay them with tips which is illegal based on labour laws but government isn’t checking or enforcing any of it. Also many foreigners now go into Uber driving as another low skill job lately. It’s a mess all round when it comes to our unsecured and porous borders…they all think South Africa is some heaven in Africa and all trek down to here and we have one of the highest unemployment rates in the world, because we are hiring the rest of continent that’s not even accounted for as majority here illegally
UK is completely messed up in the name of multiculturalism
He loves to bring khalistani for vote banks politics
We have the same issues here in Singapore. Over 40% of our population are foreign workers. Mind you that excludes foreigners with the permanent resident permits that are counted as the local population. Plenty of challenges in terms of employment opportunities, bias hiring practices or housing prices that inevitably has a spill over effect to the rising cost of living.
A common gripe here is that we have mandatory military service for citizens, however we're protecting people that were provided a better life and opportunity for growth but will abandon our country at the first signs of trouble. The gov expects us to die for these people?!?!?
Can i ask does anyone wonder why it being reported? Maybe as a warning for next year.
Unsustainable???? Try it out for a few years and then get back on line!
My sister has tons of experience in cleaning she applied for the same job with her friend it is a Filipino cleaning business she got rejected because she's a kiwi we should definitely kick business owners out like that
References?? It sucks, but employers in NZ are tough
@@growtocycle6992 that's true it's getting harder and harder
visa reduce to 3 years, and this is 'kick them out?' I don't see how this logic plays
less will get approved to move on to upper class visa because 3-years is quite difficult to manage comparing to 2 years or less in the past
Immigrants requiring other immigrants to have visa is ironic.
Temporary work permit means Temporary. You work you get paid your contract ends or permit expire expexr to go back simple
why doesnt our government offer affordable training for its own low skilled people to take over these jobs
Because many kiwis don’t want to do these jobs.
100% correct it is the same in Australia bringing in labour from overseas is a quick fix unfortunately politicians who are elected for short terms only look for the short term fixes that they will get credit for instead of implementing longer term solutions.
They do. I formally worked for an org that offered free training in hospo and intro into general labouring. The issue is that by the end of the courses, our numbers that have passed and moved into the workforce have halved, and then some don't even pass the drug testing. It's a community problem for you and I to fix, not a govt problem
Employers prefer immigrants çheap labour
@@kimkay2196 And in many cases they have a better work ethic, which is what Kiwis USED to have and were well-known for world-side.
these are people on a temporary work visa. It is temporary. There is never any guarantee that you would be able to stay forever, that is not promised. Some skilled temporary visa holders may have an opportunity to get residency, but not all of them.
Thank you New Zealand for protecting your country
This does nothing to help locals 😂. You guys who are cheering for less migration would end up becoming toilet cleaners and underpaid gardeners. Most Locals in most countries do not want do the "lowly dirty jobs" and they have the migrants do it.
like new zealanders will do those jobs 😂😂
Don't worry indians will marry your people and get spouse visa
@@vomme2457 😂
@@vomme2457I live with one in a boarding home. She came to this country and literally no one wants her, she’s dumb as a brick.
They should cut back as no housing.
They, the Governments of the day should have addressed immigration levels years ago. Who has been calling the shots? The UN? If they are, they might be realizing now, that's it's unworkable. Ask Britain lol.
And a shortage of housing makes things harsh and expensive.
Why is this even showing my timeline ? I never wanted to visit or live in NZ
Problem is that the locals aren’t willing to do these “blue collared” jobs
they are.
They definitely are
I know so many New Zealanders who are looking for blue collar jobs. Employers just won't hire them after age 40 because they think they can't handle the heavy lifting.
They are, they're just not willing to do it for wage slave salaries.
I apply constantly but get denied because I'm not willing to get paid chump change for a job I know I am GREAT at!! So f you!!
This is expected when the whole world now leans toward capitalism. There will be ups and downs. Guess which part of the cycle we're at right now?
Ok UK population 70 million now. New Zealand population like 5.2 million. UK has a smaller land mass than New Zealand also.
Land space is not the issue.
It's a good thing to not be flooded with foreigners, they should be fixing their own countries.
International students are not migrants. They contributed significantly to the country’s economy and in some cases, the excellent reputation of the institutions of higher learning they went to. I found it appalling just how badly they are treated by the developed countries.
It's even worse in Europe. Expect to be treated worse than refugees and illegals if you're a student in Europe from a developing country.
Nepali indian Pakistani Bangladeshi .. huge number of labor available..so they will flood anywhere they get chance..
No affordable housing stock available , hospitals , roads , school at absolute capacity.....the pressure on infrastructure just to much and it's only a small place and now if it was judged a small business it would be technically bankrupt after Adern Labour Govt spent $100billion / debt. Really Sad . New govt doing the right thing probably
I don't know what this video is talking about. If you want to get a work visa in NZ you need to fulfill a series of requirements in terms of skills. Then the employer needs to prove they tried to hire a local but none could fulfill the position. You can't just get a work visa to fry chips in the fish and chips store.
Hey NZ would you like Australia to send you over some more 501's?
If they're not on our Aussie dole, they're usually in our jails.
There was a govt temp work visa scheme that fast tracked work visa's for migrants, this is being repealed and I would say probably what this story should have been about. It has been found that there was a high level of abuse of this program which took advantage of the workers for the employers benefit, couple that with a recession and the program has been stopped. NZ businesses, mostly small business like the first interviewee pay the absolute minimum possible, kiwis don't want to be exploited to work for less than it costs to live so we don't take those jobs unless absolutely necessary. It's time to report the news not tell stories, NZ has a problem with low wages in a global economy, bad business decisions in 08 caused big buy in from forgien investors and now profits go offshore and wages stay low but nobody wants to address that.
It’s their country, their rules.
Interesting! But I think this is good to create a safer society, safe for immigrants too by not being exploited. It is good government to admit that too high immigration is unsustainable. Canada is facing a housing and living crisis, a part of which is due to unchecked immigration.
It's not the high immagration no's it's the stupid government s fault for selling off to over seas investments who don't live here n raise the prices of rents or leave houses vaccent easily way to curb high rents n mortgages is let immagrints n kiwis rent to buy Yr first home if it weren't fur a immagrints helping payinf taxes n keeping the economy afloat weather there highly skilled or not
Immigrants in NZ are exploited by there own race / nationality
GOOD FENCES MAKE GOOD NEIGHBORS. .....
Amen.
So don’t expect to be too welcomed abroad. You do know that the kiwi diaspora is relatively huge, on a per capita basis. You do know that right?

@@elizabethclark8552 There are very few locals in New Zealand.
Migrants from Britain and Europe completely pushed the Native locals on the fringes. Overpopulated the Maori land and took everything from the Natives.
It's the same story wherever Europeans migrate. First few come and then millions follow.
I've not been to NZ before. There is chaos in various parts of the world. Wars in Ukraine, Russia, Myanmar, Iran, Middleeast. Particularly in Palestine, Isreal. There is bad economic and political situations in China, and probably in USA. There potential for conflict in China-Taiwan-Philippines area. There are areas in Africa which may have internal problems. As we have seen, illegal entry of migrants into USA from mexico suggest problems in South and Central America countries. The recent kidnapping of Isreali civilian hostages with killings of thousands and the subsequent killings of many fold palestinans, shows that UN is feeding a problem. UN people don't want to be there. It is a hellhole, they employ associates which probably misuse the provisions, and the world is feeding a population that is filled with hatred. and the muslim world just do not have population control. NZ is at a far corner of the world. I heard it is a pleasant place. Mountains are rugged, there are goats and wild cattles. Recently heard boat people are arriving in Australia again. A pragmatic approach definitely is migrant control. Mass demonstrations in Australia, usa universities shows that there is cultural differences. The immigration policies for the past 3 decades are too liberal everywhere. China probably has inserted some operatives into UK, USA, Australia. China grow too big . The ego is big, breathing down Australia. The world fed into that for the past two or 3 decades of phenomenal growth in China through global Capitalism. The richers simply made so much money that I donno how to count the wealth. Economic boom, and now a warming planet at various places. Australia has a rather harsh environment in that large parts are arid deserts and they are not going to change it. There will be times, Australia will experience heat waves, and the Australians will move to NZ. The heatwaves are currently in south east asia. Cambodia Thailand Myanmar, these are dry hot places often having temperatures up to 40deg C for a few months of the year. Saudi futuristic cities construction seems to be slowing down. Back to USA, the people streaming into Texas through Mexico. I heard there are two incidents of squatters killed people and some gangsters sneaked in as asylum seekers.Border patrol is simply very difficult and dangerous drugs got through and drugs killed some people. People is human Capital. When a country is able to harness people, it can grow but often a time, there is chaos instead. In my opinion, some border controls through various policies are definitely needed. UN is too naive and keep trying to grow world population to a dangerous level.
What bit of a WORKING visa do people not understand? If the work dries up then you are not needed. A working visa is not a license to stay in the country permanently. Desirable countries need to be selective. Take the best, reject the rest.

Stay where u r
Forget it.
Some dude named Brenton T. warned us about this
Such a vague generalization from that girl is probably why the kiwis are tired of the immigrants 😅
should they be sent back? Does it depend on the time they can be there?Unless they plan on becoming a citizen?
Or they can find a new job?
Whatever it takes to keep everything straight in the world and not lgqbt.
Been to New Zealand in 1976, as a tourist and lots of jobs available, quite and peaceful country but i decided to stay in Australia.
New Zealand is to Australia what Canada is to America, a quieter more peaceful version of the bigger neighbour. It isn't better or worse, just different.
Give them work visas like in UAE ,but never give them permanent residence and problem solved
that sounds like such a scumbag scheme to enforce
No wonder lots of skilled migrants moved out of middle east coz they know they will forever be slaves and not getting the same benefits as citizens.

It was the government that created the so called immigration partway after covid to help rebuild the economy and now you don't need them again.
These people work ten times harder than you@@OskarP223
I think that it’s cool to live in another country but the reality is that sometimes the best thing, if you have to or want to work abroad, is to keep jumping countries and bring your skills back home or to somewhere that needs it. Yeah I may be privileged because of where I was born but I see a lot of expats moving out of the country to cheaper places and kind of pushing up prices for locals making it hard for them. And here in America I see that it’s hard to get a well paying or even blue collar job because you’re being undermined by immigrant cheap labor that we cannot and should not compete with. The rich get richer by using these exploitative methods and we shouldn’t stand for it. Endless immigration does have an effect on even a healthy economy. When there is no shortage of people you can exploit, it is no surprise when things go bad.
If they are willing to fill those positions!
Great move from national!
Good! We don’t want to end up like Sweden.
Already there.
I think Al Jazeera should stay out of reporting on NZ, Aus, and Pacific Island issues and focus on remaining the best everywhere else. As soon as I saw this being a 2min vid I knew straight away it's just extra content.
Maybe Al Jazeera should focus on understanding why arab states, who were the major African enslavers, do not take refugees.
Australia already full
Good move before it’s too late it’s a small country just look at the USA or Canada dealing with this immigration crisis
Dead right- need to do the same here in Ireland. You can’t have a free for all undermining the native population
😂😂😂 1:18 even NZ government not bothered about Al Jazeera😂😂😂😂
Where are these migrants from?
sa Quiapo lang pala yan e
"New Zealand" GOvernment : migration levels are 'unsustainable'
meanwhile the indigenous peoples of "New Zealand" : .........................oh vey...why we didn't think that back then...

let's see if this again will be deleted by the pro zionis masquerading as pro palestine channel of Al Jazeera.
and I'm screenshoot this posts.
Because they didn't have the power to enforce it. Just because you were first doesn't mean you're entitled to the land, historically the invaders massacred everyone until no one before them had a claim. It wasn't until the 1800s where governments were able to enforce their claims against normal peoples through law and order. Not only this, but the Maori couldn't even get along with different tribes. How were they supposed to unite and kick the brits out if they were too busy eating each other, just dwindling their own population.
Do you have a point, or have you already short circuited your tiny brain.
Cause they had no money. Thats why
I remember New Zealand used to offer free land for anyone who migrated there
This is TH-cam not tiktok you idiot.
when was that - the 1860s? ( at the end of the Maori Land Wars).
Their country their rules..... They will decide what's best for them
New Zealand is larger than Great Britain with a population half the size of London.
And it should stay that way.
They still give tourist visa easily,, unlike their neighbours
Unfortunately New Zealanders have become lazy , we used to be known for our hard work ethic , now we have many who would rather be on benefits and stay at home , our social welfare policies which were originally designed to help out a few for a short time have become a lifestyle choice for too many , drugs and alcohol abuse have taken a toll on our workforce as well no doubt , and we live in a time where we have become greedy , 7 days shopping , the consumer mindset of living beyond our means , rampant inflation , money is becoming worthless, average house price in 1974 was 16k , now it’s 700-1mil ! Dad worked , mum stayed at home , life was family and simple, oh how things have changed , an Asian person was unique and exotic , travel was a trip to Rotorua , dinner was roast beef , potatoes and cabbage , we worked hard and played rugby in the weekends whether you liked it or not , we manufactured most of everything we needed , the country was quite well off and people were happy , here we are in 2024 and quite frankly it’s a circus , not only in NZ but when I look around tge world (easy with the internet , another addiction) I see chaos , much created by the west , our leaders have much to answer for going into numerous countries and causing death, destruction and anarchy, now proxy wars , a few getting super rich from much misery and no wonder people look to escape these countries to look for peace and prosperity and ways to support families back home . My parents helped Cambodians settle here in NZ back in the 70s , what beautiful people they are , so hard working and talented and generous, I don’t profess to have tge answers and this is just a rant for my own mental preservation, my heart is heavy when I look at the state of the world , I’m a 5th Gen NZer , Maori, Irish , English bloodlines but a NZer I am , all I ask is respect this little place on the backside of the world, we are lucky to be here and let’s hope for better days ahead where we can all work along beside each other in peace no matter your creed or culture.
Yea there needs to be a limit on how long you can receive WINZ support because for some people they're getting on SLP with 'mental health issues' then getting paid a weekly wage equivalent to full-time work on minimum wage by sitting around doing nothing. Why would you ever get a job?
WINZ Reported we have 200,000 people on Jobseeker and 100,000 people on SLP. Willing to bet MINIMUM 10% of them have been on these programs for 5+ years.
Slow down the migration otherwise there would be Housing crisis, Health Care overcrowd and Infrastructural stress which all going to cost and anti-migration sentiment will grow.
Perfect decision by New Zealand
Plenty of work in the middle East, or not Al JAZEERA?
Canada could learn a thing or two from NZ and Aus.
*Head of State New Zealand,still King UK🇬🇧.*
What exactly is "low skilled"?
Please come to Canada, just tell them you are a students.
Good for New Zealand
The elites invited migrants not ordinary New Zealanders
Which is the most common country migrants are coming from??
Depends which part of the world you're from. If you're from Europe it'll be Ukrainians/Syrians, if it's North America it'll be South Americans, and if it's Oceania it'll be the Indians/Chinese. It's all about perspective.
@@riptyurass302The most generalized take I’ve seen 😂. Chronically online people are on the rise
@@riptyurass302for the récord the Europe part is dead wrong I’ve lived in two European nations. You forgot to mention North Africans etc
Poorly researched story with uninformed participants. NZ is in the state it is now due to racial nepotism / exploitation and discrimination. NZ really loves cheap labor. 😢
She looks like a Filipino.
Good
After their Prime Minister criticized the US for not having more open borders.
I think you mean NZ's former Prime Minister. We got rid of Labour and switched to a new PM recently.
Good for them 👏
Thats just horrible.
common sense ... should have thought about this decades ago ...
Due to Peaceful community …
🤡 are you referring Hindus from India?
Good for NZ laughing at the racist comments here..goes to show who is who
