I read over the weekend that fran Wild 63 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 3: is going to contest the South Wiled Upper Menoralty. She 64 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 3: remember her, She is the former Wellington man. She lives 65 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 3: there now. She lived in Greatown, I think, and she 66 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 3: sat there and people said why don't you, and she thought, 67 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 3: why not? I don't really mind fran Wild It would 68 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,119 Speaker 3: have been nice if she had sorted out Wellington's wastewater 69 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 3: back in the day. But I could have said that 70 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 3: about many mayors. She got some stuff done. She particularly 71 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 3: made the stadium, you may remember. But in the middle 72 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 3: of this article about frame while going for the Wildered 73 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 3: Upper manyoralty, there was a sentence that stood out like 74 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 3: the proverbial. She said, years of really cheap rates and 75 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 3: under investment in infrastructure have now caught up with many councils. 76 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 3: And she says it's worse than Wildered Upper than for 77 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 3: some other small councils. Wiled Upper as in a terrible position. 78 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: Do you think two out of the district's three wastewater 79 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 3: treatment plant, so two out of their three wastewater treatment 80 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 3: plants are at capacity. Can't take any more? 81 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 6: You know what? 82 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 3: There are construction bands in martin Borough and Greytown. You 83 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 3: can't build, you can't develop, you can't renovate, you can't 84 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: get bigger. There is no date for these restrictions to end. 85 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 3: The region has come to a stop. Some residents like 86 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 3: it like that, but I don't know about you. If 87 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 3: you stop, you're going backwards. And what happens if you 88 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 3: are a business and you're going forwards and you can't 89 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: even actually expand in any way, shape or form. That's 90 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 3: what's happening, and wide it up now. Fran Wilde says 91 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 3: the bands were the right call, but she also warns 92 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 3: that excessive rate hikes could kill the region. The wrong 93 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 3: call and this drives me insane. It doesn't drive you insane. 94 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 3: The wrong call was made back in the day when 95 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 3: the voters voted for the candidates who were against rate rises. 96 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 3: You voted for the region to stagnate for the sake 97 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: of your own back potter. It's happened in cities and 98 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 3: towns all over New Zealand. I've seen so many mayors 99 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 3: come up and say I will not raise the rates, 100 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 3: when in fact they should have raised the rates and 101 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 3: they should have built some wastewater plants. Therefore, the next generation, 102 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 3: the people, the youngsters coming through right now, has nothing 103 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 3: to thank you for. Because honestly, if you ran your 104 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 3: house this way, okay, no more money spent on the house, 105 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: the house would fall down. And if you weren't paying 106 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 3: off your debt, the bank would foreclose. This is no 107 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 3: way to run a house, there's no way to run 108 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: a town, and there's no way to run a city. 109 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: Andrew dickens the. 110 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 3: Germans are at the polls right now. Key issues as 111 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 3: you heard at the state of the economic migration that's 112 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 3: a big one, and Ukraine's war with Russia. The main 113 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 3: opposition and former party of Angela Merkel, the Christian Democrat 114 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 3: Union here on after known as the CDU, are currently 115 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: leading the polls with the support of twenty nine percent 116 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 3: of the voters. They've led by a light conservative by 117 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 3: the name of Philertick Maya, sorry Mattz. Looking at four 118 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 3: years of poll results, only one party is trending upwards 119 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 3: right now, and that is the right wing Alternative for 120 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 3: the deutsch Land Party, which has twenty one percent from 121 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 3: now and we'll call it AfD because it's easier. So 122 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 3: just to remind you how it went down last November, 123 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,119 Speaker 3: chancell Olaf Schultz of the Social Democratic Party center left 124 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 3: and the leader of this leftist coalition, fired as finance minister. 125 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 3: Schultz then lost a vote of confidence that triggered a 126 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 3: snap election and early parliamentary elections that were announced in December. 127 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 3: Right After that, Elon Musk waded into the campaign voicing 128 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 3: his support for the AfD, remembered them the far right 129 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 3: alternative for Germany Party AfD, so the Christian Democrat Union 130 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 3: that CDU is polling at more than thirty percent. They 131 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 3: look like they're destined to be Germany's largest party and 132 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 3: returned themselves to the helm of German politics. But they've 133 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 3: taken up a much more aggressive policy towards immigration and 134 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 3: then was seen during the merkele ERAa of era of 135 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 3: open borders. So they can now be seen working with 136 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 3: this new right wing AfD. So is Germany heading right, which, 137 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 3: considering their history, is a big step. That question answered. 138 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 3: As the day goes on, Andrew dickens and the Prime 139 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: Minister is off to Vietnam.

It's lovely to join you. 161 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 3: Very good. Now, look, when we talk about Asia trade, 162 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 3: we know about Indonesia and China, but how much of 163 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 3: a powerhouse is Vietnam these days. 164 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's good to think of Vietnam as a pacesetter 165 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 7: in Southeast Asia. It's as you noted, and you're opening 166 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 7: one of the fastest growing economies in the region, I think, 167 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 7: averaging around seven percent. But it's also one of the 168 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 7: most youthful countries in Southeast Asia, which is really helping 169 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 7: to drive that consumption and demand. Because of that, it's 170 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 7: attracting a lot of attention. Is what's called a China 171 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 7: plus one investment destination, where Vietnam is increasingly be chosen 172 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 7: by countries because it's stable and because of that growth 173 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 7: increasingly influential. So for New Zealand, that's really about connecting 174 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 7: to this growth, as we did with China. 175 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 3: How do you say the name? How do you say 176 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 3: the name? You say Vietnam, I see Vietnam. How should 177 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 3: we say it? 178 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: Oh? 179 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 7: Either, I mean it's an extent. No, No, you're good. 180 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 3: Well, if we're working on a bilateral relationship, it always 181 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 3: pays to actually get the name right, you know what 182 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 3: I mean? Yeah, yeah, okay, absolutely, Okay. So this is big, 183 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 3: So you've been studying it. Where can we what can 184 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,119 Speaker 3: we offer to each other to strengthen this relationship? 185 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 7: Yeah, Well, in the past, as you rightly noted, it 186 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 7: was much about New Zealand offering development, sport to Vietnam. So, 187 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 7: for example, in the early nineteen sixties, we were a 188 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 7: gentleman called Dtr Michael Sheckleton and his team were offering 189 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 7: medical care in sort of treatment during the Vietnam or 190 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 7: whereas today, it's much more about mutual opportunity, so looking 191 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 7: at areas of agritech and food production, or looking at 192 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 7: New Zealand providing education services. But you know, we had 193 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 7: forty thousand New Zealand tourists go to Vietnam last year, 194 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 7: so that two way services trade. Fisheries management is another 195 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 7: area of priority for Vietnam, helping with energy transitions, so 196 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 7: both looking at clean green energy options, particularly as AI 197 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 7: comes into alone. 198 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 3: Good. In your report you also mentioned defense, and of 199 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 3: course our thoughts are about defense because of the activity 200 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 3: of Chinese naval ships near Australia and New Zealand. You know, 201 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 3: what do you make of all of this and how 202 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 3: could Vietnam help us in defense? 203 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, like late New Zealand, naval and coastal defense is 204 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 7: Vietnam's number one focus. So they have the South China 205 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 7: Sea which has claimed parts of Vietnam's Exclusive economic zone. 206 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,719 Speaker 7: But there's also concerned along the Mekong River of militarization 207 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 7: and for trade for excess of vessels. So we two 208 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 7: are concerned that our region not be militarized and so 209 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 7: we would look to work together for modernization of our 210 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 7: militaries for exercises together human and disaster relief assistance and peacekeeping, 211 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 7: but coming together as two militaries where we want to 212 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 7: see freedom of navigation and a peaceful, secure region. 213 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 3: Don't We also saida thank you so much for getting 214 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 3: up earlier for us as an and jessap is the 215 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 3: chief executive of the New Zealand Asia Foundation. And all 216 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 3: of a sudden, we are thinking about China. I've had 217 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 3: some thoughts about that before. Also the Cook Islands. It 218 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 3: is a five twenty Andrew Ordison's here in a moment 219 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 3: to update sport. We'll talk about Joseph Parker. What a pity. 220 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: I think Joseph Parker was looking great and he dealt 221 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 3: with the ringing very quickly. Though I feel for the ringing. 222 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 3: But what is next? He called out, Alexander Usik. Could 223 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 3: that possibly happen anyway? Orders is here next. The time 224 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 3: is five twenty. 225 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio. Earlier edition with 226 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: Andrew Dickens and one roof Make your Property Search Simple 227 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: youth talk. 228 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 7: Said be. 229 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 3: Andrew Ordison joins me with the time of five twenty two. 230 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 3: Hollow orders greeting's Andrew, Let's work our way from now 231 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 3: back into the past. So right now we've got India 232 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 3: versus Pakistan, one of the great games in world cricket 233 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 3: happening in Dubai. Why can't they play it in Pakistan 234 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 3: or India. 235 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 8: Well, I think there's the political division there and the 236 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 8: Indian government stepping in and deciding that they wanted to 237 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 8: and when India talks and cricket, everyone listens. So they've 238 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 8: played it in Dubai and India have triumph. They've really 239 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 8: just dominated Pakistan this morning, reaching two forty two in 240 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 8: the forty third over very coally, getting to his what 241 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 8: will be a fifty first ODII century one hundred not 242 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 8: out at the end. So control performance. 243 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 3: We when we defeated them and I thought, hello, looks 244 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 3: like ver it's over, you know. And then he's had 245 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 3: a good run. It's over. It's over. Now he's back, 246 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 3: and that was just the point we've got with us 247 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 3: coming up. Yeah, that's exactly right. Also, huge scores in 248 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 3: Australia versus England. Yeah, thats straordinary, yeah, big, big yeah. 249 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 8: Especially I think getting what to three fifty two or 250 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 8: fifteen balls to spare, fifteen balls to spare, come on, 251 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 8: it's just extraordinary. Numbers, isn't it swe T twenty just 252 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 8: comes to you just can't really. 253 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 3: Get a gauge on it. Now, Okay. The next story 254 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 3: was Joseph Parker, who was absolutely swizzled of having a 255 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 3: chance because he looked fit and he was ready to go. 256 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 3: And this poor guy fought against Flew for two days, 257 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 3: arrived at two o'clock, turned up wobbling all over the place. 258 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 3: He was enormous, but didn't He lasted only one in 259 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 3: a bit. It was quite the roady for Martin Cole. 260 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 8: He was it from from the Congo to get across 261 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 8: there to Rhead in Saudi Arabia. And you're right, I 262 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 8: mean Parker, he said, this resurgence his career. 263 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 3: I think, what's that? 264 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 8: Six wins is the last six spouts? And yeah, he 265 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 8: was primed and ready to go, and how disappointing for 266 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 8: him that. 267 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 3: Was caught out Usik and said, come on, let's do it, 268 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: because Usik was going to fight the winner of Dubois Parker. Yeah, 269 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 3: that did not happen. Who knows when it's going to happen, 270 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 3: if at all? Do you think Usik might go come 271 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 3: on the intro, let's. 272 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 6: Go, Well? 273 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 8: Possibly, Yeah, I imagine a lot of boxing they had. 274 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 8: You know, well they say you get to get it on. 275 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 3: Anyway, I overdone it in quite the no no, yeah, 276 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 3: I know, but as they hear and across the ten 277 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 3: Oi in the stadium. But there you go. These days 278 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 3: they seem a bit slack. They seem to be a 279 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 3: bit like, yeah, we got to get it on, but 280 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 3: maybe next year. It seems weird. Hey, thanks, orders got 281 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 3: to go. It's five to twenty five the early. 282 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: Edition Full the Show podcast on iHeartRadio powered by News 283 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: Talks It Big. 284 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 3: News, Talk to It Beak and wanted to I'm Andrew 285 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 3: Dickinson for Ryan Bridge. The time is five twenty seven. 286 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 3: So this weekend has been spent watching the Chinese Navy 287 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: use the Tasman c as a firing range. They've never 288 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 3: come this far south before, and of course everyone's going, why, well, 289 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 3: why I see that David Seymour has come out and 290 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 3: nothing they did was illegal. Oh we know that, mister, 291 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 3: of course, not there in international waters. But why they've 292 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 3: never done that before? Why come down there? One hundred 293 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 3: and fifty miles east of Sydney and down round about 294 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 3: the same level as Nelson, New Zealand. And fire some missiles. 295 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: Defense commentators call it a power projection. Excellent, sure, no problem. 296 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 3: Why do you have to project power around here? Why 297 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 3: do we have to divert air New Zealand and quantesstplanes. 298 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 3: Australia believes the firing was purely to hype the fact 299 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 3: that we're here. It wasn't like they were testing their 300 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 3: missiles or anything. They were just saying, by the way, guys, 301 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 3: we're here. We can get down here anytime we like, 302 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 3: and we're ready to rock. Meanwhile, this happens at the 303 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 3: same time that the Cook Islands, of course, have signed 304 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 3: that deal that we've been talking about, and then that 305 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 3: deal that includes wharf construction. And you read that, and 306 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 3: you wonder how naive and stupid was Mark Brown for 307 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 3: going there at this time and actually signing up a 308 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 3: deal that actually talks about wharf construction. I mean, of course, 309 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 3: new wharves are lovely until one day the Chinese navy 310 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 3: starts using them as a staging point to invade the Pacific. 311 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 3: And that's going to the worst case scenario. It's even 312 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 3: when they come and stay, just come and stop there 313 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 3: for a bit to refuel. You got a Chinese boat 314 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 3: and new Shorts asked Auklands is how they felt in 315 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 3: the old days when the American submarines used to come 316 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 3: here and just park up in their bay. You felt 317 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 3: like you were a target anyway, This is what the 318 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 3: Cook Islands has committed to. So this all begs the 319 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 3: question why New Zealand never built a deep water base 320 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 3: on the island years ago? Why we did not build 321 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 3: a wharf. We built the international airport, which of course 322 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 3: is the island's lifeline. But that airport is also a 323 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 3: military base if it needs to be. Why didn't we 324 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 3: build a port, and why don't we have a New 325 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 3: Zealand ship stationed over there semi permanently. This is the 326 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 3: This is the entry to the Pacific. The Cook Islands 327 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 3: are a semi autonomous part of New Zealand and a 328 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 3: fine place for us to put a base. It should 329 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 3: have been our forward base from the get go. We 330 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 3: we're serious about defense, and have we ever been serious 331 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 3: about defense? So why didn't it happen? The same thing 332 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 3: everything else is falling apart. We don't like spending money, Well, 333 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 3: that is a false economy. Now China has stolen our 334 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 3: march from right under our feet.

Now it turns out the 447 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 3: Destiny Church even having meetings at Auckland Council buildings. 448 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 11: Yes, and look, the thing is is that the Auckland 449 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 11: Council facilities. The council can't do much to stop it. 450 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 11: So the man Up West Aukland chapter advertised an event. 451 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 11: This was at gleneaed In Library, just days before they 452 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 11: launched the attack on the Tiata Tuo Library.

Now, the council says it's obligated 455 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 11: to keep its community venues available for anyone. The granting 456 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 11: of the booking it doesn't equal an endorsement, so the 457 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 11: council says bookings they're often made also under individual names, 458 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 11: so it's not really clear which group was reserving the space, 459 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 11: but it is aware of a small number of bookings 460 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 11: made by the group.

So I'm afraid the situation is very, 505 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 2: very tense and fraught, as you can imagine, well wishers 506 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 2: praying outside the hospital as we speak, dozens of people 507 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 2: lighting candles, leaving them at the foot of a nearby 508 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 2: statue of the Late John Paul the Second Now the 509 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 2: eighty eight year old Pope was admitted to hospit on 510 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 2: the fourteenth of February. He'd been experiencing breathing difficulties for 511 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 2: several days. He has had problems with lung infections before 512 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 2: developing pleurisy. That's that information around the lungs, which is 513 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 2: quite painful. It'd got that as an adult, but also 514 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 2: having had a part of one of his lungs removed 515 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 2: at the age of twenty one. But yeah, I'm afraid 516 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 2: the updates now becoming more and more worrying for everyone, 517 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 2: and lots of people wishing him well. As I said, 518 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 2: dozens gathered outside the hospital as. 519 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 3: We understand that the Venican is going to make a 520 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 3: statement on his condition in about one hour's time, so 521 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 3: we will bring that to you run about a quarter 522 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: to seven this morning. Meanwhile, we've got an election in 523 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 3: Germany and the question is will Germany kick right? 524 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's looking like it will. The polls close 525 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 2: in just over ten minutes time. We should then get 526 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 2: a sort of an initial an initial forecast about what 527 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 2: that polling will hold. And actually in the past these 528 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 2: exit polls in Germany have been pretty accurate. We do 529 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 2: think there's going to be a big swing to the 530 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,439 Speaker 2: right and far right. Why well, because big topics of 531 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 2: the immigration and also the stagnant economy have been major 532 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 2: players in this campaign. Now, I'm afraid to say that 533 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 2: the Germany has suffered from several terrorists or terrorists related 534 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 2: attacks over the last few months, bansing cars, being driven 535 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 2: into crowds, stabbing incidents, and in the last three or 536 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 2: four incidents certainly it has been somebody from either Syria 537 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 2: or Afghanistan seeking asylum or having been promised he would 538 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 2: be deported and they're not being deported. So big question 539 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 2: marks about the country inviting in over a million people 540 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: as part of it sort of helping those in Syria 541 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 2: and Afghanistan, and of course the far right has gained 542 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 2: support as well from people like Elon Musk and Donald 543 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 2: Trump who are being quite proactively supporting them. But fifty 544 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 2: nine million Germans eligible to vote, and the interesting thing 545 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 2: is twenty percent were under side. To the head of 546 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 2: the election day, other parties have said they will never 547 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 2: work with the far right. However, if the far right 548 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,719 Speaker 2: gains a sufficient vote, it's going to be very very 549 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 2: difficult for other parties to coalesce in order to get 550 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 2: a working majority with a coalition government. So I'm afraid 551 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 2: the next few hours are going to be very very interesting. 552 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, And the CDU used to be Angela Merkel's party, 553 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 3: and that's now Frederick Metz's party. And he's actually got 554 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 3: a hardline against migration all of a sudden, which shows 555 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 3: that he's also seen whether the wind blows at the moment. 556 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 3: Fascinating stuff. And we will keep you up to date 557 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 3: with the Mike Hosking breakfast. Thank you to Gavin Gray. 558 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 3: It's coming up ten minutes to six. So the government's 559 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 3: announced an overhaul of the Overseas Investment Act. It will 560 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 3: make it easier for businesses to receive international investment and 561 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 3: for international investors to invest here. Business New Zealand Director 562 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 3: of Advocacy Katherine Beard joins us. Now, how are Catherine, 563 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 3: good morning, what's your reaction. 564 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: Oh? 565 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 4: Look, this is a very good move. We've been advocating 566 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 4: for this a number of years now in New Zealand 567 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 4: actually one of the hardest places to invest in the OECD, 568 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 4: and while the rest of the world has increased investment, 569 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 4: our investment line has flatlined. So very good moves, very good. 570 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 3: It's fair to say that most New Zealanders would really 571 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 3: like to see some foreign capital invested in New Zealand businesses, 572 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 3: rather than just making it easier for foreign companies to 573 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 3: come in and therefore take our money overseas. I see 574 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 3: on the Telly last night they use Ikea as an example. 575 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 3: But Ikea has spent their money over the last six 576 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 3: years to come to New Zealand. To then get the 577 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 3: profits and repatriate them, of course, or we get is 578 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 3: a bit of employment. Isn't the real trick to keep 579 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 3: the profits here, to get foreigners to invest in New Zealand? 580 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 7: Yeah? 581 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 4: Look absolutely, And if I think about all our big 582 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 4: successful exporting businesses, most of them will have foreign investment, 583 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 4: and they don't just bring the money they bring, the 584 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 4: connections to international markets. So a lot of our exporters 585 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 4: who really smash it out there on the world market 586 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 4: have foreign investment. Without it, you're just really not that 587 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 4: competitive because you can't get big enough. And I would 588 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 4: argue that the jobs they create, those frontier firms that 589 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 4: are all high paid jobs, you know, those people are 590 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 4: paying tax. The business pays tax it grows, so you know, 591 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 4: there's always trade offs, but certainly for the rest of 592 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 4: the world it's been a winning move and New Zealand's 593 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 4: sort of been sitting on the sidelines. 594 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 3: Well yeah, the opponents say the trade off is that 595 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 3: you every now and then you lose key assets. But 596 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,479 Speaker 3: of course David Seman was saying that there will be 597 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 3: a The Minister can still say no if he feels 598 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 3: it's bad for business. Is that right, It's correct. 599 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 4: So they've actually they're exempting a few things, so they're 600 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 4: putting farmland and residential and fishing quota more on a 601 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 4: slow track for decisions, so there will be protections there. 602 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 4: And you know when it comes to land, actually you 603 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 4: can't take the land with you. You can't put in 604 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 4: a suitcase and take it overseas, so if and if 605 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 4: foreign investor doesn't make a success of it, then they 606 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 4: will have to sell to somebody else who can. 607 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 3: All right, have you done any studies or have you 608 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 3: seen any studies that has put a dollar value on 609 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 3: how much this might improve our economy? 610 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 4: Ah, look, that's a huge unknown. I think we just 611 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 4: need to get the welcome matt properly out there. Other 612 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 4: countries have, and you know, we've just made it incredibly 613 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 4: hard and frustrating to invest here. 614 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 3: Katherine Beard, I thank you very much for your time 615 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 3: and your expertise, and have yourself a great morning. And 616 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 3: Catherine is the Business New Zealand Director of Advocacy and 617 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 3: it is seven minutes to Sex News Talk Zibbi. 618 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: Andrew Dickens on Adili edition with one roof Make your 619 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: Property Search Simple Youth talg ZIBB. 620 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 3: Thank you for your text, Jess writes on ninety two 621 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 3: ninety two small charge, Hi, Andrew does wins. And Peter's 622 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 3: still like a silly old xenophobe. He's been warning us 623 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 3: about the CCP for years, the Chinese Community Party. Yes, 624 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 3: I know, Jesse, he gets a bit funny about migrants, 625 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 3: but we're talking warships. But I think what I like 626 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 3: about this is finally someone's talking about defense. Judith's talking 627 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 3: about defense. We're all talking about defense. We haven't we 628 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 3: haven't been defending. It's fair to say make Huskin come Wannity. 629 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 12: Morning, and we're not going to either. Judith Collins is on, 630 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 12: by the way. But the amount of money required to 631 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 12: do what you know theoretically you need to do, we 632 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 12: don't have or anywhere close. I read a very good 633 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 12: piece of a guy called mckryan who turns up on 634 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 12: the program periodically, and his argument is that what they're 635 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 12: doing is one two things. One they've signed a deal 636 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 12: with the Solomons, of course, so they're doing they will 637 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 12: be here on a more regular basis. And also two 638 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 12: to the Australian, this's more about Australians than it is 639 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 12: us to keep them pinned closer to the shores of 640 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 12: Australia and not to wander up to Taiwan for example, 641 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,239 Speaker 12: and wander around there. So there's a bit of that 642 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 12: going on. 643 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 3: That's right. We have US and Australian and New Zealand 644 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 3: activity in the South China sees what's the difference with 645 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 3: this and. 646 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 12: The other thing is whether the Americans do any whether 647 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 12: they look at this and go, well, that's interesting, you know. 648 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 12: And got some detail on the Cooks thing over the 649 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 12: weekend as well. So between the Chinese and the Cooks 650 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 12: and the Chinese and the Tasman Sea, there's something not 651 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 12: right about turning up though, I mean, it's all very 652 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 12: well to do what they did. None of it's illegal, 653 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 12: but it's there's something about turning up and your diverting planes, 654 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 12: couper run. 655 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 3: It's called power projection very much. Look what we can do, 656 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 3: and we can, but we can do nothing. 657 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 12: And that's the cold hard realize. 658 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 3: I mentioned the fact, why didn't we actually develop deep 659 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 3: water bases in the South Pacific over the last fifty years. 660 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 3: That'll be planning, that would be cool and money, and 661 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 3: we've never done that. 662 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 12: We've thought and I think where Judith Collins is right 663 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 12: as we've hoped that no one would notice. We're at 664 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 12: the bottom of the world and we don't spend any 665 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 12: money on defense.
