New Zealand immigration hits an all-time high following pandemic lull_我的网站

一 |     WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- New Zealand's immigration numbers have hit an all-time high, enabling employers to fill jobs but also putting pressure on the housing market, according to economists.The net number of immigrants was 110,000 in the year ending August, beating the previous high of 103,000 set a month earlier, according to figures released Wednesday by Statistics New Zealand. The numbers represent a big turnaround after more people left New Zealand than arrived during much of the COVID-19 pandemic.“We are talking very, very big numbers for a small economy like ours,” said Jarrod Kerr, chief economist at Kiwibank. Kerr said the surge likely reflected pent-up demand that had built during the pandemic. He said it had come as a relief to employers, who last year were having great difficulty finding skilled workers to fill vacant roles.New Zealand's unemployment rate remains at a relatively low 3.6%. But Kerr also cautioned the migrants would need a lot of resources, including tens of thousands of homes — something that remained in short supply.The figures show the greatest number of immigrants came from India, followed by Philippines and China. The total number of immigrants reached a record 225,000 during the year while the number of New Zealanders leaving also neared record levels, at 115,000.The figures included a net loss of nearly 43,000 New Zealand citizens, many of whom were lured to Australia with offers of better pay. Under a reciprocal arrangement, New Zealanders and Australians can live and work in either country. “Unfortunately, we lose trained, smart individuals,” Kerr said. “That is something that worries us.”The figures were released three days before New Zealand holds a general election, although immigration hasn't been a major campaign issue. Both main parties have focused on the soaring cost-of-living, tax cuts and crime. ___Follow AP's global migration coverage at https://apnews.com/hub/migration。    盛夏灼灼,暑气蒸腾,广大户外劳动者不惧高温、坚守岗位,默默保障城市的有序运转。佛山福彩坚守公益为民初心,福彩站点既是筹集公益金、汇聚公益力量的前沿阵地,更是扎根基层、贴近群众、传递爱心的窗口。为深入践行福彩“扶老、助残、救孤、济困”发行宗旨,切实关爱高温下的一线从业者,帮扶社会困难群体,佛山福彩启动2026年“夏日送清凉”公益关爱行动,诚邀各站点携手共建“福彩清凉公益驿站”,将日常经营场所打造为面向户外劳动者的基层公益服务阵地,并向全市福彩站点发出倡议:一、亮明公益标识,打造城市“纳凉港湾”具备条件的站点主动张贴“福彩清凉公益驿站”标识,面向环卫工人、外卖骑手及有需要的市民免费开放。充分利用站内空调设施,营造清凉舒适的休憩环境,让奔波者有一处可歇脚、可纳凉的安心之所。佛山福彩清凉公益驿站标识福彩党员志愿者与站点销售人员张贴“福彩清凉公益驿站”标识,搭建基层公益服务阵地。二、配齐暖心物资,搭建夏日“温情驿站”设立“爱心补给角”,常备免费饮用水、防暑药品、应急雨伞、便民急救包等物资,切实做到“热可纳凉、渴可饮水、累可歇脚、伤可应急”,以细致行动回应群众所需。
