Farm campaign disappoints Chinese investors

If the dairy industry is the backbone of our economy I am concerned that the first overseas sale or leaase of dairy interests will mean we cant defend further acquisitions because we've already set the precedent. Government terms are only short term as are their idiotic financing ideas.

foreigners buying leasehold lands who owns the lease of all The 130 farms and farms already sold. Shame on this government for allowing this.Where is their integrity. More to the point what did our servicemen sacrifice their lives for. It certainly was not for their country to be sold by their governments then or ever.May our dead servicemen R.I.P

Short term politics will never work, quick money may seem to solve our problems but that will all end up blankets and flintlocks in the end. The Chinese leased Hong Kong and if they don't want it that way then their own president fails.So why should we deliver a life style where you don't get blown up or beaten to death by your own government at all to people who use NZ banks sparingly,deal mostly with their own race in business and self finance relatives marrying relatives from China, into business and properties at an alarming rate in NZ. If we think we are having race relation problems now then you wait GOVERNMENT you aint seen nothing. Keep the land, New Zealand is still paying it off anyway.

If a New Zealander was to try and buy a farm or factory in China, would they be allowed? I don't think so. The sale of land to countries which don't allow this countries citizens to purchase land in their country should not be allowed. Out of that $120 million export earnings, 90% will most likely leave New Zealand and never benefit this country!

Shaniya Twain buys up a whole lot of land. Heaps of expat South Africans & Zimbawians buy up bulk farm land. No-one whispers boo. Talk of selling some to the Chinese and the ugly racist nature of New Zealsnders is on display for the world to see. The sooner there's a nuclear war the better. It'll be back to basics folks and you'll have more to worry about then the colour of someones else's skin.

The answer to stop this sale of national assets and national pride is BRING BACK WINSTON.

Who cares if they are disappointed there are enough cheap foreign workers on New Zealand dairy farms now with out foreign owners who will import more. These farms are producing dairy farms they will produce expert earnings wether they are foreign owned or new zealand owned but at least being new zealand owned the money will stay here.

Let China Buy control of your Industries and imigrate their own to workers cheaply,control our export produce,drainage-fragment NZ economy and resources to extinction,take over the the Govt,show you big headed kiwis what they think of your Human Rights and use you ses as puppets and NZ as a dumping ground for their waste,all thanks to you Redneck Kiwis Blow-fries,just wait and see He He he he He he

Natural Dairy Holdings (NZ)Ltd have displayed their total lack of due diligence by attempting to use a thieving, lying, kniving, unreliable intermediary to conduct their business. This intermediary, through unethical business practices in this country, should have citizenship revoked and a lifetime ban on gaining an entry permit back into NZ.
This type of "business person" has lured people into extending credit which was never going to be repaid, and much of which was used to purchase an expensive property and live a luxurious lifestyle.
"potentially boosting the national export earnings by $120 million a year" If this were true, why is there no mention of the purported $1.5bln that was to have been invested in the project? Export earnings are mentioned, but would the profit be reinvested in NZ or even stay in NZ for that matter?
I have no problem with overseas companies setting up businesses in NZ so long as they create employment, reinvest in NZ, conduct their chosen line of business on leasehold land, and are held fully accountable for any losses incurred.

And there's the bribe. $5 million fund for lending to new sharemilkers. Lending. I am underwhelmed.
