We don't have high crime rates, our police don't carry guns and instances of corruption are virtually unheard of. We don't have abject poverty or hunger and we don't have the pollution, congestion, health issues and cramped city living that we see elsewhere. Does that belong on a Tui billboard? |

Every nation has pollution, corruption, social injustice, class systems etc . It's not about presence, but it's extent . And we're doing OK, no matter what PF1 speculation might tell you . Crime here isn't THAT bad . Out homocide rate could do with some serious ironing out though . . . 2/100k as opposed to Aus' 1 . 2/100k is embarrassing . You do have to wonder how honest those reports are though . . . |
