Very effective measure ! But watch out your universities.

Yes..good..ideas...especially..african country....

New Zealanders are very polite. They say that foreing interference is an oversea's election aprears to have taken place. Appear is a highlydiplomatic verb.

Foreign donations to politicians should be banned. Foreign entities and persons should be prohibited from investment or ownership of any media in the US. New Zealand should do this as well.

This SHOULD be a no brainer. Apparently we have a lot to learn.

I wish i could live in new zealand.. i wonder if there are any mexican in nz?

So, ... if borders do not matter why this law?

NZ may be seen as the lil bro in the south, but it often shows a lot more intelligence than its so-called hostile, money-minded big bro

They are being smart, while we are not, and not being smart is dangerous. Let’s start being smart about foreign influence in all our political processes.

Yeah, because every nation is just itching to interfere in New Zealand's elections! Thank heavens NZ is taking measures to prevent the frenzy of interference.
