The U.S. and Europe are not alone! Massive immigration to Western countries is a global phenomenon!
"New Zealand has tightened work visa rules in response to "unsustainable" migration levels, say authorities.
Low-skilled applicants now have to fulfil English-language requirements and are allowed to stay for three years - down from five previously.
"Getting our immigration settings right is critical to this government's plan to rebuild the economy," said Immigration Minister Erica Stanford.
A near-record 173,000 people migrated to New Zealand last year. ...
Authorities have also decided to axe earlier plans to add 11 roles, such as welders, fitters and turners, to the list of occupations that would qualify for a fast track to residency. ..."
Under the tightened rules, applicants for most work visas now have to fulfill requirements for skills and work experience.
Employers are responsible for ensuring that migrants meet the specified requirements before offering them a job.
