WHY REFUGEES WANT TO COME TO NEW ZEALAND

A refugee is someone who has escaped from their country to avoid war, (fighting between nations or groups) famine, (a very bad shortage of food) disaster, (bad accident or misfortune) and persecution, (trying to hurt or arrest someone because you disagree with them).

Politics\Wars

Refugees are allowed to come to New Zealand without many problems. Also, there aren’t any wars currently in New Zealand, which is why refugees want to come to New Zealand. New Zealand has good politics by comparison to others, some countries suffer from heavy corruption. Corruption is lying or bribing, mostly done by people with power.

Rights\Responsibilities

New Zealand has more rights than the countries that many refugees are escaping. Also, if you live in New Zealand you have responsibilities like: getting a job, paying tax, and not breaking the law.

Education\Health

New Zealand has good education in schools, also, the education is free because the teachers get paid by the government. New Zealand has free Accident and Emergency care, if the care is under a certain cost. There is also free dental care if you are under 18.

Refugees are trying to escape war, famine, disaster or persecution in their country, and New Zealand is far away from other countries.
