Try the Kiwimetre...


For New Zealanders, this is a very interesting survey promoted by TV1 and it's had some interesting results. I gave it a go today and found the questions very interesting as it asked questions such as which flag do you prefer (currently voting for either a new as opposed to the old flag) and different questions regarding the icons one associates closely with New Zealand.

The poll also asked some interesting questions about the role of religion, and views on sports, Maori, ties to the Crown and immigration etc. I found the poll to be interesting in the scope of it's questioning and wonder how the results will be used in any forums as they are trying to get as wide a scope of NZers completing this survey as possible.

There weren't any specific questions about views on education or food but there were some on poverty, the role of the wealthy to address this and for which political party voted for in the last elections. I think some of the information being published on this is seeking to ask different questions about what constitutes being "kiwi" today but I still think that it will be those who are able to get internet access to such surveys will have a say but those who don't have access, won't have their say...
