NZed on NZ

I've been browsing for similar blogs of Filipino living here in New Zealand. And most of them, telling stories about differences and alikes compared back home. Typical, I would say. Prospective NZ immigrants frequently visit these blogs to get a glimpse as much as they can with regards to living here. Thanks to internet, these fellow Filipinos now don't have to rely on hearsays and what their (immigration) agents told them. Have to admit there are dodgy agents out there who would paint a "very bright" image of NZ just to get desperate Filipinos to sign-up for their services. Mind you, they're not particularly wrong. Just that, not particulary accurate either. And more often than not, there are some critical informations being left out. Either intentionally or just plain misinformed too. And well, you can't blame them for that, they're out there to make money. Not some public service to improve other people's lives. OK, probably not all of them.

With regards to pinoy's blogs, I reckon for the fun of it, in the spirit of "gaya-gaya", jump in as well....hehehe. However, I'll keep it original as much as possible by focusing more on current events and issues facing New Zealand. By telling the other side of New Zealand to help a fellow kababayan a greater understanding of their adopted country. And not the "sugar coated" version all the time. Reality check to say the least.

Here we go....
