Answers



1) NZ is part of Australia

False. Two different countries it is a 3 hour plane trip between the countries.


2) NZ has the currently number one ranked rugby team in the world


True. Anyone who has not witnessed them in action, check them out they are quite an amazing team. AKA. The All Blacks.


3) dave nz is a nice guy

True.


4) NZ finished ahead of the USA in the final placings at the 2002 World basketball champs


True. A real oddity here while basketball is a popular sport here, with NZ's population of 4 million, there is only so much sporting talent to go around. Rugby gets alot. NZ would do well to cover 30 points vs The USA in basketball on most occasions.


5) NZ is a 3rd world country and stricken by poverty

False. This couldn't be further from the truth. NZ is a well developed nation with very little poverty.


6) Prostitution is legal in NZ

True. There are legal brothels and adult entertainment joints in NZ. Technically street workers aren't legal but these days that is generally turned a blind eye to by the boys in blue too.


7) NZ has a female prime minister

True. But guys don't get excited what she has in brains she certainly lacks in the looks department.


8) Sydney with a population of 3 milllion is a NZ City

False. Sydney is an Australian City and has more than 3 million anyway.
