Hey cuz, be an Aussie

KIWIS living in Australia long-term should consider becoming residents, New Zealand’s Foreign Minister Gerry Brownlee says.

Doing so would not diminish their citizenship in New Zealand but would give them better rights in their adopted country, he said.

“New Zealanders should understand that New Zealand and Australia are separate countries and the rights and entitlements they enjoy at home do not necessarily translate to Australia,” he said after meeting with lobbyists from OzKiwi yesterday.
