Auckland Council Imposes 'Giant Buddhist Monstrosity' Over Local Community - No Consultation
Jordan Kelly • 1 July 2025

You live in an idyllic rural valley . . . and you're about to find this big bastard looking down over your property. Nice.

Waiwera Valley residents are up in arms over Auckland Council's plans to erect a 16-metre Buddhist statue on a hillside overlooking their peaceful and idyllic rural community.


The New Zealand Herald interviewed a residents' representative, who says the locals don't consider the planned "monstrosity" to be the "art" piece the Auckland Council purports it to be - and on which grounds it is justifying the placement and the expenditure.


Take a look and a listen here.


Why wouldn't you want your rates increased to pay to have this evil-looking thing bearing down on your once visually-uninterrupted scenic valley? After all, your rates are being spent so much more strategically on this thing than on fixing potholes in the local roads and dealing with water management issues and the like.
