feel the same here...
far from WW!, WW2, Mongol invasion, Soviet influence, TTP, ISIS, etc... Yes, resources are scarce as far as job market is concerned.. also, learnt the waterways are way polluted with nitrates.. anyway, better than Pak.
he has a first hand experience so his opinion holds value. nonetheless, not a 'fact' as one needs a large data size to empirically state something as evidence..

The population mostly lives on the northern island which is closer to the equator. The souther island is colder and most of the country is infertile:
Why is New Zealand so sparsely populated? Why don't they attract the best brains from the rest of the world on a large scale?
Answer (1 of 18): I live here as an immigrant. So I can tell you my personal opinion first hand… and based on my direct experience. I came here as high skilled. So I was imported as a “brain”. There are relatively few similar cases compared to the total number of yearly immigrants. First, the i...
That's not the reason for their small population https://www.quora.com/Why-is-New-Ze...s-from-the-rest-of-the-world-on-a-large-scale
Not sure if this is well known internationally, but New Zealand is the major terrestial landmass of a largely submerged microcontinent Zealandia.

The Continent Zealandia
NOAA - National Centers for Enviornmental Information
The term Zealandia was coined by geophysicist Bruce Luyendyk in 1995
New Zealand and New Caledonia were previously considered part of a region known as Australasia
New Zealand might be Australia’s smaller neighbor but it’s sitting on a massive new continent scientists have named “Zealandia,” according to a publication released by The Geological Society of America.
New Zealand and Australia might be able to finally give each other more breathing room. It turns out they sit on separate continents. New Zealand calls a 1.8 million square mile land mass known as Zealandia home. This new continent also includes New Caledonia, along with several other territories and island groups.
The idea of a potential continent in this area has been around for some time. Geophysicist Bruce Luyendyk coined the term Zealandia in 1995.
The dedicated study of this area over the past 10 years has determined it is not just a group of continental islands and fragments but that it has a continental crust large and separate enough to be officially declared a separate continent.
Previously, New Zealand and New Caledonia were grouped with Australia under the moniker Australasia.
While most of us would call this the eighth continent, geologists often consider Europe and Asia as one continent called Eurasia.
The publication by The Geological Society of America comes barely a week after scientists found a “lost continent” under the Indian Ocean.
This has huge implications for our nations future because New Zealands EEZ (exclusive Economic Zone) would by convention extend past the boundaries of the continental shelf. The region includes natural gas fields, mineral deposits , oil and fishing rights.
