John Key told us that resource consents process should be shortened yesterday. However, the discussion of the policy should take more time to conclude. The leader should enhance the discussion more quickly than it used to be.


Resounding Victory by National

I was not sure about the meaning of ‘resounding victory’. However, I looked into the Internet dictionary. According it, it is a great triumph of the game. So, National Party won in the election significantly. John Key keeps his Prime Minister seat until 2017. National is continuing the ruling party. I am so happy to hear that their current policy of accepting immigrants and focusing on economic growth will be continuous until 2017.


PR PROCESS

One of my Japanese friends is trying to conditional PR (Permanent Residency Visa) for NZ. He advances to the final process on this matter.

I am so afraid that I would be very upset about the officer’s reaction about my PR obtaining process….

However, I have to write 7 chapters in total from now on. I am going to complete the rough draft of the book until the end of August.There are about 10 days to go. I have to open my engine in full speed….
