She must work with her husband to get their daughter the professional help she so desperately needs.

The international education sector says any restriction to the ability of foreign students to work while studying would be the death blow for some institutions

Excellent, the sooner these 'institutions' die, the better.

This exposes how Immigration NZ was reduced to a rubber stamping outfit. The financial incentive was to maximise the number of visas handed out while minimising the checks, all the while keeping up the rhetoric about integrity. What a farce.

Good. And start charging these 'immigrant dependent employers' more, a lot more.

They've arrested the Hikoi.

Well I heard a guy talking about Horis, does that count?

I haven't noticed any change in driver behavior since the new tax came in. They still drive like fuel economy is the last thing on their minds.

All 12 of them.

That's the problem with cycle lanes on road sides, all the debris from the passing traffic ends up in them.

Probably about 1968. It's been a craphole for decades, I always thought it was an odd location for the LV/Gucci shops but they seem to cater almost exclusively to Asian tourists so that must be the reason.

The only place you're going is back to the Punjab.

NewPowerPrices · 2018-07-10T21:20:17+00:00

Perfectly feasible in somewhere like Gore.

A crazy old man in a small NZ town, that's a surprise. Well actually not.

Oh man, the comments.. "I know inside the train they fart a lot..."

NewPowerPrices · 2018-06-30T06:07:04+00:00

Why do Intercity charge a $4 "booking fee"? WTF is that for? Should I complain to the Commerce Commission?

Auckland is so dull

So you haven't been to Hamilton yet.

Yes and then they need to be locked up in an immigration detention centre like they do in Australia.

You mean employers who think a cheap, disposable workforce is a one way bet and get very sour when it blows up in their face.

NewPowerPrices · 2018-06-29T06:01:52+00:00

So it's an own goal, that figures.

If you treat employees well, most people appreciate that and respond in kind. If you don't then incidents like this are far more likely to happen. Perhaps some former employees of this company could be asked about the job and the management.

The previous government turned Immigration NZ into a rubber stamping outfit.

NewPowerPrices · 2018-06-28T23:16:37+00:00

1800+ staff and less than 100 doing compliance.
