Examining trans-Tasman migration of new immigrants to New Zealand from the people's republic of China: a quantitative approach / Liu, Liangni Sally   Article
Liu, Liangni Sally Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract ‘Back-door’ migration refers to the entry of overseas-born New Zealand citizens to Australia. Many New Zealand Chinese migrants from the People's Republic of China (PRC) are within this migration flow. Based on a detailed analysis on the permanent and long-term arrival and departure data from Statistics New Zealand and an online survey conducted by the author, this paper examines the trans-Tasman migration of New Zealand's PRC migrants. The result shows that compared with New Zealand-born citizens, the trans-Tasman migration of China-born New Zealand citizens is not large in number. The 2001 Australia immigration policy change of the welfare provisions to New Zealand citizens discouraged ‘back-door’ migration of the PRC migrants in the short term only. Australia still remains a favoured destination for many of them. Economic consideration is the main factor drawing these migrants to Australia. This paper also reveals a circulatory feature of the PRC migrants' trans-Tasman migratory movements, as evidenced by a significant number of respondents who had migrated from New Zealand to Australia indicating that they would come back to New Zealand at some future time.

Transnational physical activity and sport engagement of new Asian migrants in Aotearoa/New Zealand / Liu, Tao ; Liu, Liangni Sally   Journal Article
Liu, Liangni Sally Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Based upon a literature review, this paper first identifies and articulates the importance of studying physical activity and sport (PAS) engagement of new Asian migrants within a particular geographical location – New Zealand. A pilot study with a series of in-depth interviews highlights some challenges that New Zealand Regional Sports Organisations (RSOs) and new Asian migrants face in terms of PAS engagement. Findings from the pilot study interviews indicate that RSOs in New Zealand are well aware of these challenges, and these challenges mainly stem from a lack of understanding of the needs of new Asian migrant communities. These findings also indicate that ethnicity plays a significant role in influencing migrants' PAS engagement.
