I notice how racist NZers have become---and people don't even recognise it. While they may have personal contacts with ethnically diverse individuals, they reflect xenophobic, ethnocentric, stereotypy in their general comments. Government policies are leading the way. There has been coverage of the difficulties of entry to NZ on visitors visa's experienced by people not from "European" background in the international press.
Even the personal ads in the main NZ newspapers specify/identify ethnicity or race! In most countries this would be regarded as discrimination and not allowed.
