Pretty much you could say New Zealand is officially under Martial Law. Also within the Emergency powers are the powers for govt to change laws at will without notice.
Hi Steve. I dont know how long we will all have being on the internet and phones. New Zealand goes into full lockdown tonight. 11.59pm (NZST).
Country has urged everyone to do alot of essential things online. Phones have been overloaded, internet sites crashing and upgrading notices.
I have bought Walkie Talkies for the family incase things crash. National Emergency has been declared officially. Giving emergency powers to military and police rule.

Our Prime Minister has also stated that anyone who is a foreigner or citizen has to use where they are as self quarantine/isolation. (people in airports have to stay where they are)
Regional borders enforced with roadblocks. No one is allowed to travel between these regional borders.
You have to designate one person from each family home to do the essential shopping. Police and Military can arrest you if you do not have a good excuse to be out. Only Essential workers and designated shoppers allowed out. The only exception is limited exercise and you cannot be in groups. But exercise Alone.
This is whats in store for America if Trump fails to draw a fine line between Liberty and Emergency safety.
Our leader has now made New Zealand 100% Socialist/Communist.
Fact is our hospitals were already overlaoded before the virus got to us. We are going to be in deep do do for a long time. And people think this will only last 1 month.
Seeing what Israel is doing by tracking everyone through cellphones. I fear New Zealand may do something very similar. If so I will destroy my phone and go Dark.
I will keep Watching and in touch by email through a different source.
G-d bless Steve. I pray for your safety and protection.
