Dotcom said as a "former hacker", he had an analytical mind and had formed a view on the direction of the world.

"I am not optimistic about the long term and believe we will see an increase of international conflicts and pollution with a growing population and drastic reduction in resources.

"New Zealanders might not yet understand how fortunate they are, but when the time comes New Zealand will be one of the most desired countries to live in and its wealth could reach unexpected highs."

He said the nation was potentially self-sustainable, did not need nuclear power and was distant from international conflicts.

It could become "a rare paradise on earth".

It would seem he's in the same mould as Donald Trump - all bluff, with no serious capital behind himself, and a history of business that would seem to be short on ethics.

His Mega* businesses seem to be largely held buoyant by piracy and pornograhpy.

Still, Microsoft was largely built on deceipt as well, so who am I to draw judgement?

1208432 2011-06-12 00:59:00 yes, dodgy dealings but this interested me more:

"New Zealanders might not yet understand how fortunate they are, but when the time comes New Zealand will be one of the most desired countries to live in ."

That may be so, but how long do you think NZ would last if the rest of the world starts fighting over resources? I give it 5 minutes.

More to the point when the time comes I think we will basically be tenants in our own land.
Looking at his past history he is all piss and wind and not the type we really want here.
If it is so great here why is he just treating it as a holiday home.
