The Desecration Of ‘Pure’ New Zealand

June 10, 2016 By Endarken Leave a Comment

Thanks to the Panama Papers whistleblower, some of the fantastical delusions that most of the world holds about New Zealand, are finally falling to pieces.

While trust lawyers market us to foreign capital, Tourism New Zealand has spent the last 17 years proclaiming us to be “100% Pure New Zealand.“

Although there was a time when New Zealand had a pristine and untouched environment, it is long past.

Yet the assertions to the contrary are deliberately constructed, tailored and manicured by marketing and advertising gurus who, with wheels freshly greased by public funds, then impress them upon the global public.

Exactly how much public money is spent on maintaining the facade, no one knows.

Panama Papers: Long John Key Silver Turns New Zealand Into Tax Haven Treasure Island

May 23, 2016 By Endarken Leave a Comment

I warned that New Zealand would be used as a tax haven on October 26th, 2011, if the National government was reelected.

I wasn’t the first.

Never did I expect we would be proven right in such a spectacular fashion as via the Panama Papers leak.

A leak that has shone light on an agenda to use New Zealand as a port of safe harbor for vast swathes of foreign cash. An agenda that does not stem solely from the ruling party. It comes from on high.
