Does NZ need foreign controllers?

[XTurb]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can tell me if there is a need in NZ for more air traffic controllers and if so is there an opportunity for controllers from other countries to come and work in NZ?

If so can anyone give me a starting point or any useful contacts?

Thanks.

Without hijacking the thread too much, I think what we need here are controllers exposed to high traffic flow terminal areas like LAX LHR etc. Becuase sometimes I just despair at the controlling. I don't think it is a case of diiferent rules is it?
