　　今年6月份的新西蘭人離境遷往澳洲的人數(shù)是30年來(lái)歷史同期的最高峰，這一數(shù)字再次說(shuō)明國(guó)人對(duì)于國(guó)家黨口口聲聲的“經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇”是多么沒有信心。

　　工黨經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展事務(wù)發(fā)言人、財(cái)經(jīng)事務(wù)副發(fā)言人大衛(wèi)帕克指出：長(zhǎng)期永久性離開新西蘭往澳洲去的人到6月份為止已比移入境內(nèi)的人數(shù)多出3100人，這是自1981年6月的3400人以來(lái)的又一最高紀(jì)錄。5月份流出人口達(dá)3300人――也是32年來(lái)最惡劣的5月份數(shù)據(jù)。

　　新西蘭人正是用腳投票，心意已決。他們對(duì)于國(guó)家黨所稱我國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)正在復(fù)蘇中已經(jīng)不再相信。

　　國(guó)家黨在創(chuàng)造就業(yè)、或拉近本國(guó)與澳洲間工資差距等方面毫無(wú)作為，而財(cái)政部正警告說(shuō)我國(guó)的經(jīng)常項(xiàng)目逆差以及新西蘭的債務(wù)水平都在繼續(xù)增長(zhǎng)。預(yù)計(jì)如果國(guó)家黨連續(xù)執(zhí)政6年，新西蘭將變得更窮，更更窮，越來(lái)越窮。因?yàn)槲覈?guó)面臨的根本問題是結(jié)構(gòu)性的、長(zhǎng)期的。

　　大衛(wèi)帕克說(shuō)，這是為何工黨要出臺(tái)大膽的計(jì)劃從而帶領(lǐng)國(guó)家向前的驅(qū)動(dòng)力。在國(guó)家黨治下，我們正茫無(wú)頭緒地漂流。怪不得新西蘭人要紛紛外逃呢。

Kiwis fleeing reach a 30-year June high 

The highest number of Kiwis leaving New Zealand for Australia in June for 30 years reinforces how little faith Kiwis have in National’s claimed ‘economic recovery’, says Labour’s Economic Development and Associate Finance spokesperson David Parker.“Permanent and long-term departures to Australia outnumbered arrivals by 3100 in June, the highest net outflow since 3400 in June 1981,” David Parker said.“This follows on May’s net outflow of 3300 --- the worst May figures for 32 years.

“Kiwis are voting with their feet,” David Parker said. “They don’t believe National’s claims that the economy is on the road to recovery.

“National is doing to nothing to help create jobs or to close the wage gap with Australia, while Treasury is warning that the current account deficit and New Zealand’s level of indebtedness are set to continue growing.“After six years of National’s management it is forecast that New Zealand will get poorer, then poorer, then poorer still,” David Parker said. “The underlying problems are structural and long-term.

“That is why Labour has announced a bold plan to take our country forward. Under National we are drifting without a plan. No wonder Kiwis are fleeing.”
