the new zealand governments a o a may be to feel low skilled jobs with new zealand nationals, but do those nationals. well, those jobs author enough new zealand us to fill those positions and does it pay enough for everyone to be happy or? yeah, it's uh, of course, new zealand has benefits from migration over a long time and you'll see the strategy very similar. we have 30 percent of our population is close to 30 percent and for on board people. so migration is the integral part of the season society. but of course, there are fluctuations in economy that leads also to fluctuations and migration rules or regulations. and the problem of course, is that quite often this is tends to be reactive and because these policies take a long time to implement. so we have had unprecedented growth in immigration like like in australia and leading to unprecedented growth in the population growth . right? so we've had close to 3 percent population growth in the 2023. that's sort of, i'm good. all for the most part. a developed country so uh that's clearly something needs to be done. yeah. well one do
