One of the joys of New Zealanders is that they are always surrounded by three pure primary colors: the blue of the sky, the white of the clouds and the green of the trees.
165438+1In mid-October, at the invitation of Dominion Post, we met with Tricolor New Zealand as scheduled. Starting from the northern hemisphere in late autumn, flying over the vast Pacific Ocean, and arriving in Auckland in early spring. Out of the airport, blue sky, white clouds and green trees will blow against our faces. Under the layers of blue, white and green, we can only involuntarily open our mouths and let the moist, fresh and slightly cool air penetrate into our lungs and stay in our hearts.
100% pure new Zealand (100% pure new Zealand) gave us a precious gift.
Indeed, this one in New Zealand? Big oxygen is best for the air in the room? Major? It seems that nature is for enjoyment. New Zealanders know how to enjoy. At Oakland Bridge, at Wellington Botanical Garden, at Citizen Bay Beach, in victoria hill? I always feel that at least half of the people in New Zealand are idle outdoors, or climbing mountains, jogging, riding mountain bikes, or just enjoying the kiss of the air. I really don't know whether such pure air is too much or too little for people who are close to nature all day.
My eyes were always blue, white and green along the way, and my ears were not idle. I heard that there are three New Zealand ones? Strange things? .
First, every household has at least two trash cans of different colors, one for recyclable garbage and the other for non-recyclable garbage. People who have a garden should prepare a trash can to hold green garbage such as branches, grass and leaves. If the garbage is not classified as required, sanitation workers can refuse to accept it, and their families may be severely punished.
Second, does the government want to introduce it? Fart tax? Farmers are required to pay taxes on the odor emitted by their cattle and sheep, because these animals account for more than half of New Zealand's greenhouse gas emissions.
Third, in 20 10, in order to revive the economy, the New Zealand government planned to mine gold and other mineral deposits in several national parks, which was strongly opposed by the public and public opinion. For the sake of blue sky and white clouds, this plan to develop the economy had to be abandoned.
Do you see it? 100% pure? Aren't they all? Natural? This depends on the environmental awareness that permeates every cell of New Zealanders, from garbage sorting to gas emission to economic development.
? Pure? Not just the natural environment. Recently, a global corruption index report was released, and New Zealand was rated as? The cleanest country in the world? . The role of media supervision in shaping this national image cannot be underestimated.
In Wellington, the capital, when the delegation visited the Dominion Post, Ms. Katney, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, introduced with a little pride that the Dominion Post was good at investigative reporting and commentary, with the largest circulation but the greatest influence. ? We've reported it before? Come down? I have met corrupt officials and exposed a promising public security bureau chief suspected of rape. ?
I have been to three cities in New Zealand, but I can't see the modernization of this moderately developed country. I rarely see skyscrapers, never bustling, and rarely fly with my legs. Even in the downtown business district, after 4: 05 pm, there are very few pedestrians; In the jungle and grassland outside the city, there are few people and time is slow. It is common for rainbows to appear slowly after rain, and even cattle and sheep are very leisurely.
This? The last piece of pure land in the world? I feel a little lazy. Maybe it's because the air is so good and the scenery is so beautiful. The life of New Zealanders has long been full of the three primary colors of nature, blue, white and green, which can't accommodate colorful cities and are unwilling to do it. Outside of life? Under more pressure. Or maybe it's because Not seeking wealth but seeking equality? Social security system, New Zealanders? Sick and sick? All of them are in charge, so that they can sit back and relax and lose the motivation to struggle.
A few days in New Zealand coincided with the final stage of the national election. Around the reform of the social welfare system, the ruling ideas of the Labor Party and the National Party have aroused widespread debate: the Labor Party advocates providing more benefits and preferential treatment to low-income people, while the National Party advocates promoting more employment of low-income people by reducing benefits. Xinmin Overseas Chinese, the largest local Chinese newspaper, takes "What is welfare surplus?" Social injustice? There is no difference between diligence and laziness? Lazy paradise? ",made an in-depth report on the bipartisan proposal and New Zealand's welfare system. According to the report, improving welfare and raising lazy people makes no difference between working and not working, resulting in more lazy people and poorer countries.
After returning to China, the results of New Zealand's general election were announced and the National Party won. Some media commented that this choice reflects New Zealanders' reflection on the high welfare system that has been followed for many years, which means that New Zealand will pursue vitality and efficiency and advocate the values of hard work and struggle on the premise of maintaining high welfare.
The tricolor New Zealand attracts many immigrants, among which China immigrants account for a large part: there are more than 200,000 overseas Chinese in New Zealand's population of more than 4 million.
There is a small town called Arrow Town in Queenstown. Is this an early China? Gold rush? Residence. Well-preserved cottages and old houses bear witness to the China people who have been hired to work here since 1869. How to build one from scratch? China village? How to sow the seeds of the feelings of the Chinese and New Zealand people on the land of New Zealand at the earliest?
But if you ask the Chinese in New Zealand today, what about the gold rush? But this is not necessarily the main reason for their immigration. Shortly before our visit, statistics released by Statistics New Zealand showed that the unemployment rate in New Zealand had climbed to 6.6% in the third quarter of this year, reaching157,000, and the unemployment problem among young people and immigrants was more prominent.
Are you staying or going back to China? A China student studying in New Zealand said that this is a multiple-choice question that many people in China are facing now.
