'We've Seen This Movie Before and It Didn't End Well':  Immigration Lawyer Michael Yoon on the Ongoing Flood of Kiwis Heading for Australia

In a short but hard-hitting commentary, immigration lawyer Michael Yoon comments on the fact that New Zealand "isn't just losing people, it's losing talent, skills and potential".


Meantime, in a much deeper dive, but an only slightly longer clip, The Platform's Leah Panapa talks to NZ Institute of Economic Research Senior Economist Ting Huang about why so many Kiwis are moving to Australia.


Especially instructive, is the Comments section under this particularly video. They really are a must-read for anyone wanting to understand the mindset and lived experience of the many Kiwis who feel forced to leave a country they love.
