<New Zealand Government's immigration policy is designed to attract quality immigrants, that is to say, people that either have a good education and good skills to offer New Zealand > ElM, if it were only true. They need a driver's licence so they don't crash while they cause traffic jams and so they can get a taxi soon. Or don't bother with the licence, or get one printed in Thailand or somewhere. Good skills in handling bureaucracy is a major talent so they can fiddle the system and get the rest of their tribe in too. There are heaps of people who came from Taiwan and Hong Kong as a stepping stone to Oz. Oz has seen how stupid New Zealanders are, so they've shut that route. They live for years here, get citizenship, then swoop into Oz. Meanwhile they've enjoyed taxpayer funded education, medicine, prison services, welfare and commonly-owned facilities [such as the water supply which had to be extended - what I'd built would have been sufficient if it had been priced correctly and the population constrained - guess who paid for both the old AND the new water supply].
