  I think it's a reference to the fact that NZ looks like a great place to ride out a nuclear exchange. Most of the nuclear powers are in the northern hemisphere, so you want to be southern. Obviously you want to be somewhere that's not going to be a target, and as a small island nation without nukes (and in fact one that forbids nuclear-powered vehicles from entering its airspace: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Zealand_nuclear-free_zone https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Zealand_nuclear-free_zon...), NZ is very unlikely to be targeted by any nuclear combatants. It's just big enough that it's got some chance of sustaining basic industry in event of the major powers collapsing back into the stone age. Despite that, as a remote island, no one's likely to invade it for its resources or infrastructure after a nuclear war. It's just too hard to get there without modern navies and air forces. So, all that to say I think the OP is (sarcastically?) suggesting that someone rich has acquired a place in NZ and is looking to dump this bunker they no longer have a use for.
