Maybe it was on Hotcopper, I got quite excited and had a good rant, here it is, I was quite impressed.
This is Day 1 in NZ's total shutdown, we will be the first to come out the other side.
We are about 200 cases compared to ausie being 10 times that and only 5 times the size.
NZ is an isolated island in the middle of the ocean and the tasman sea will nobble any zombie CV boat people trying to get here.
The airports is our weakness and we are slowly getting in control of that.
As CV spreads devastation through the rest of the world, as it gets to Africa and India, NZ will be coming out the other side and back to work.
We will be the first to make benefits out of the new self testing at borders so we can reopen.
In this total lockdown all the workers at NTL will be paid to stay at home by the government, and I am thinking that its going to be a 8 to 12 week shut down rather than a 4 week one that we started today.
In that time, the management can continue on with their work.
When NZ comes out of it, we will be sending people back to the mines, whilst the rest of the world is in turmoil with health systems unable to cope with the pandemic, and manufacturing is halted in the gold mines around the world.
The political frame work for NZ, has totally changed within 5 days here.
The fashionable greenie rules clobbering farming and mining, have and will further be relaxed, govt and RBNZ and banks are opening up finance.
Now in NZ, with unemployment set to rise from 4% to 10% minimum, with the hospitality and tourism industry facing total devastation, their is now an unstoppable political will, to assist the growth of any business venture providing jobs and economic growth.
Its amazing, when you face total ruin, everyone realises that you cannot afford the luxury to waste time on greenie BS.
The game changed for NTL a few days ago.
