Isn't that what NZ is already like - lots of people would love to live there but can't get in?
Or are you meaning they could get massive corporations to move there and become a major economic power?

NZ could pick the cream of the world's crop if they continue to lock covid out and let their folk enjoy a normal life.
Not sure what their immigration points system would look like in terms of how hard to get in, if they are one of the truly free places to go and live while the western bedwetters punish everyone for their incompetence, while also booking holidays on the quiet.

What was it Winnie once said? "Scientists should be on tap, not on top"
Time to get these doomsters back in their box, although that is easier said than done if they are paraded on TV every day!

"SAGE doomsters push back on easing lockdown any time soon: No10 advisers say Covid infections must fall from 750,000 to fewer than 10,000, the Rule of Six should stay for a YEAR and we could be wearing masks FOREVER
Sir Jeremy Farrar said infections must fall to 10,000, 75 times lower than the level he estimates at present
Professor John Edmunds warned less restrictive measures like face masks may be in place 'forever'
He also warned the variant of the virus found in Bristol may be able to dodge immunity from Covid vaccines
Public Health England has so far found 21 cases of the Bristol variant, including 14 in the city region
It's an evolved version of Kent variant but has a mutation that could make it easier to evade current immunity"
Covid UK: New Bristol variant could reinfect vaccinated, SAGE warns | Daily Mail Online
