    Both gutless and both devious and both have been selling NZ for decades. Stuff them.

    Small countries in general are vulnerable to this sort of thing. In Switzerland you're not allowed to buy a house unless you live in Switzerland. It's not an unusual law to have really and it's broadly similar to Chinese domestic law in that area.

    It is not right to blame anyone else than the NZ Govt for not plugging the leak. OK the leak is above the waterline ("we can control it") but that's no long-term reassurance.

    Yep, sold under previous guvmint (Key = socialist in all but name) but all our politicians are as piss-weak as Waikato when it comes to enforcing conditions against their Chinese masters. Fuck the NZ citizenry, let's go with what the Chinese want.

    If you want to walk in there, just do it. Just take the most direct path that gets you there effectively. What are they going to do? Take you to court?
    You could always claim ignorance of the law, thats pretty much what Mr Wong is doing.
    Wish I'd known when I walked up to the Pinnacles, i would have put my foot in his paddock through the fence and gone "NAH na na nan nAH NAH
    That'd show him.

    Its a long walk if you go to the pinnacles via Kawakawa.

    Ignorance of the law isn't really a valid defense.

    I have friends and family in China, they call us "strawberrys" over there, because we collapse easily... Rich clowns all over the world, act like "Eric".. I've come across plenty of Our Own, in this country , with exactly the same attitude and behaviour. The best we can do, is to immediately start lobbying the appropriate Ministers, plus get National Radio involved before any deals are done. The media can be a powerfull tool, everyone would get pissed really fast if this was being talked about on air, and he would get what he deserves pretty quickly. I'll bet "this" PM isnt playing golf with them like the last one, and Aruveda is controlling the milk-scene over there now, after careful marketing of the botulism-scare through that Silk-Purse whose husband owns most of it.TXT National Radio :2101

    If you read what I say then you will notice that I was saying that not knowing what the law is isn't a valid defense if you're charged.

    I never said anything about walking on the land.

    It would be great if there were meaningful change about foreign ownership of land here.

    The media is indeed a powerful tool. Just observe how well 'givealittle' works.

    If the govt doesn't ensure access, then the world will know that a contract in NZ is not binding. Pandora's box is a toy box in comparison.
