New Zealand’s population hits 5 million

Acordding to a weeks ago statstics, the higher ups anounced that New Zealand's poplaution hit 5 million. It hit 5 million on March which was the point at which we went into lockdown. Hitting that 5 milllion was the quickest time we hit 1 million. We hit 4 million in 2003 so it took us 17 years to hit 5 million. 17 years was the fastest we managed to hit 1 milllion. Which is surprising for me.
