I taught a Masters in Health Management course here in NZ. The level of fraudulent certificates and qualifications, especially in relation to English proficiency was amazing. Many of the better achieving students were actually dentists, but for them to register in NZ they needed to do their practical exams for NZ, wait for it, in Canada, as Otago didn't have enough capacity - at a cost of $25K. Most now own bottle shops.

Many of the 'doctors' are Doctors of Ayuvedic Medicine, which is rightly not recognised here as it is up there with homeopathy
