Which countries we view as most friendly to NZ
An interesting poll by the Asia NZ Foundation asking people about 19 countries and if they view them as friendly or a threat. The “net friendly” score is those who said friendly less those who said a threat. The scores in order are:
- Australia +85%
- Canada +80%
- UK +78%
- Japan +67%
- Germany +55%
- Thailand +44%
- South Korea +42%
- Philippines +41%
- India +37%
- South Africa +37%
- Vietnam +37%
- US +30%
- Indonesia +24%
- Bangladesh +15%
- Myanmar +6%
- China -4%
- Pakistan -5%
- Russia -31%
- North Korea -36%
Somewhat surprised to see Pakistan so low.
