I just googled Singapore - sterile for fun. I'm certainly not alone with my thoughts. You'd love Salt Lake City.

You can't mention mental health, or 'KiwiBuild', or the housing crisis (tens of thousands livings in motels or worse), or the housing affordability crisis, or the lack of ICU beds.....looks like Cindy only wants a narrow focus on COVID because that is where she can project some purported 'crisis manager' skills. The total and utter failure of the government on all fronts is apparent but off-limits for discussion.
And Poto Williams, one of the most useless human beings around, continues to dig herself deeper with denials and inability to answer the simplest of questions - because like Kris Useless Faafoi, she is clueless like her leader.

The Government cannot say what it would take for a Kāinga Ora tenant to get kicked out of one of its houses.
It denies having a hard-line "no eviction" policy despite not evicting any Kāinga Ora tenants in the past three years.
Associate Minister of Housing Poto Williams says evictions do happen in "very rare circumstances" but could not detail what these circumstances would be.
When RNZ put a fairly serious example to her, grievous bodily harm, Williams could not say if this would warrant an eviction.
"It's speculative. You can say a lot of things. I can't judge that because I don't know, that's not a situation I'm aware of. That would probably require a police intervention and a charge of some sort I would have thought."
Seems Minister Poto Williams was not aware Kainga Ora had a no eviction policy until Nicola Willis in the House yesterday pointed to evidence given in the Tenancy Tribunal by KO that it is so and the CEO confirmed that today. (Tenancy Tribunal cases 4222149, 4223461 - worth a read unless inclined to the apoplectic.)
Meanwhile, COVID Santa Cindy delivers an early Christmas gift of COVID to Wellington.
