Okay, last update on this story ...
They read some viewer response and according to the hosts it was slightly more than half who agreed with the idea that NZ isn't a great place for migrants and that racism is a problem.
The other half seemed to be divided into two categories. The first is typified by this reponse, which I'll try my best to quote from memory: "Ching Chongs who don't like it here should go back to China."
The second half of the half were, 'If you come from Zimbabwe (or South Africa, or some other third-world country) NZ is great!'
So it seems that the majority of Kiwis may be good, sensible people ... of course, they're probably packing their things for Oz. :sigh:
