It's a talking point every week right 51 00:02:34,733 --> 00:02:37,493 Speaker 3: on to today's show. Now, this was something that happened 52 00:02:37,493 --> 00:02:39,252 Speaker 3: to you yesterday. The question we're going to put to 53 00:02:39,293 --> 00:02:41,653 Speaker 3: you before we tell the story is how far do 54 00:02:41,653 --> 00:02:45,933 Speaker 3: you push it when it comes to meat products? Yeah, 55 00:02:46,133 --> 00:02:49,213 Speaker 3: as if you want to use the best before labels 56 00:02:49,532 --> 00:02:52,853 Speaker 3: or if you've just left meat outside of the fridge 57 00:02:52,853 --> 00:02:54,413 Speaker 3: for twenty four hours. 58 00:02:54,893 --> 00:02:58,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, well so yeah, we'll go into the details. Actually, 59 00:02:58,173 --> 00:03:01,693 Speaker 2: it's it's quite a harrowing story. It is a of 60 00:03:01,733 --> 00:03:04,532 Speaker 2: the meat package that could have been. It actually looked 61 00:03:04,653 --> 00:03:06,853 Speaker 2: a lot like when it arrived here in the studio, 62 00:03:07,252 --> 00:03:10,333 Speaker 2: like the head, the box that had the head on 63 00:03:10,373 --> 00:03:11,053 Speaker 2: the end of seven. 64 00:03:12,333 --> 00:03:12,972 Speaker 3: What's in the. 65 00:03:14,853 --> 00:03:19,053 Speaker 2: Situation? Yeah? Yeah, but yeah, how can you push meat? 66 00:03:19,133 --> 00:03:20,933 Speaker 2: I think the sniffiest is all you need. I think 67 00:03:20,972 --> 00:03:24,373 Speaker 2: get rid of the experts, get rid of the best buys, 68 00:03:24,972 --> 00:03:28,213 Speaker 2: and if you can't trust your nose, then what can 69 00:03:28,252 --> 00:03:28,693 Speaker 2: you trust? 70 00:03:28,813 --> 00:03:31,093 Speaker 3: Yep, And hopefully we'll speak to an expert on that 71 00:03:31,213 --> 00:03:34,053 Speaker 3: after three o'clock as well after two o'clock. How often 72 00:03:34,093 --> 00:03:36,053 Speaker 3: should you check on your family on the back of 73 00:03:36,253 --> 00:03:39,452 Speaker 3: course of the heart renting conclusion over the weekend from 74 00:03:39,453 --> 00:03:41,893 Speaker 3: authorities in the US about the manner of death for 75 00:03:42,213 --> 00:03:46,013 Speaker 3: actor Gene Hackman, it appears likely that he died of 76 00:03:46,053 --> 00:03:51,493 Speaker 3: heart disease with complications from Alzheimer's disease a week after 77 00:03:51,653 --> 00:03:54,773 Speaker 3: his wife passed away from a rare rodent born disease 78 00:03:54,813 --> 00:03:55,213 Speaker 3: as well. 79 00:03:55,773 --> 00:04:00,773 Speaker 2: Tragic. So he survived and in a pretty terrible state 80 00:04:00,813 --> 00:04:04,293 Speaker 2: for seven days after his wife passed, So that must 81 00:04:04,293 --> 00:04:06,613 Speaker 2: have been a difficult time. He was unable to look 82 00:04:06,653 --> 00:04:09,253 Speaker 2: after himself. It would appear still don't know what happened 83 00:04:09,253 --> 00:04:11,693 Speaker 2: to the dog because of the dog down as well. Yeah, 84 00:04:11,693 --> 00:04:15,653 Speaker 2: but you know, his daughter will be kicking herself that 85 00:04:15,733 --> 00:04:17,573 Speaker 2: he didn't she didn't check on him on the on 86 00:04:17,933 --> 00:04:22,653 Speaker 2: during that seven days his family members. So how often 87 00:04:22,653 --> 00:04:25,013 Speaker 2: should you check in on your on your family, on 88 00:04:25,053 --> 00:04:29,413 Speaker 2: your parents, grandparents as well, grandparents parents? You know, what 89 00:04:29,413 --> 00:04:31,853 Speaker 2: do you owe them? Do you do you owe your 90 00:04:31,893 --> 00:04:35,213 Speaker 2: grandparents and your parents to check on them? And I 91 00:04:35,253 --> 00:04:37,613 Speaker 2: think you do? Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, you wouldn't be here 92 00:04:37,733 --> 00:04:40,053 Speaker 2: you wouldn't be here without your ancestors. You know, you 93 00:04:40,133 --> 00:04:43,173 Speaker 2: owe them, You owe them everything. Yes, all the way 94 00:04:43,213 --> 00:04:45,933 Speaker 2: struggles that that that they went through to get you, 95 00:04:46,093 --> 00:04:48,733 Speaker 2: we hear, you know. So the least you could do 96 00:04:48,933 --> 00:04:51,453 Speaker 2: was phone Grandma once a week. 97 00:04:51,933 --> 00:04:53,893 Speaker 3: Nicely bought and we might broaden that out to the 98 00:04:53,893 --> 00:04:55,933 Speaker 3: old granny flat as well. That is something that I 99 00:04:55,973 --> 00:04:57,973 Speaker 3: think more families are doing and it's a win win. 100 00:04:58,213 --> 00:04:59,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to hear. I want to hear about 101 00:04:59,653 --> 00:05:01,373 Speaker 2: that if people, because you know our house when I 102 00:05:01,373 --> 00:05:04,013 Speaker 2: was growing it had granny flat. Yea, my mate Neil 103 00:05:04,013 --> 00:05:05,773 Speaker 2: had in it, but there was a granny flat there 104 00:05:06,293 --> 00:05:09,093 Speaker 2: and so that used to be real thing. And it 105 00:05:09,133 --> 00:05:12,973 Speaker 2: seems very very convenient, right yep. You know financially you 106 00:05:13,013 --> 00:05:15,333 Speaker 2: get maybe sitters. Yeah, move the grandparents in if they 107 00:05:15,333 --> 00:05:18,173 Speaker 2: want to, not against their will. No, it can't force them. 108 00:05:18,333 --> 00:05:20,333 Speaker 3: But that is the chat up to two o'clock because 109 00:05:20,373 --> 00:05:22,693 Speaker 3: right now, let's have a chat about doing business in India. 110 00:05:22,693 --> 00:05:24,653 Speaker 3: It is on the back of course of Christopher Luxen. 111 00:05:24,733 --> 00:05:27,653 Speaker 3: He is sticking to his commitment to try and secure 112 00:05:27,653 --> 00:05:30,093 Speaker 3: a free trade deal with India as he prepares to 113 00:05:30,133 --> 00:05:33,893 Speaker 3: make an official visit to the subcontinent. Later this week, 114 00:05:34,133 --> 00:05:37,253 Speaker 3: he's going to meet Prime Minister Narenda Modi, which is 115 00:05:37,293 --> 00:05:40,173 Speaker 3: a big deal, and he'll also spend several days in 116 00:05:40,213 --> 00:05:43,693 Speaker 3: Delhi and Mumbai where he will have an official bilateral 117 00:05:43,733 --> 00:05:47,773 Speaker 3: meeting with Mody alongside meetings with Indian business leaders. It 118 00:05:47,893 --> 00:05:52,933 Speaker 3: is a huge international market for US, but as it stands, 119 00:05:53,173 --> 00:05:56,133 Speaker 3: it represents it in terms of our export one point 120 00:05:56,173 --> 00:05:59,173 Speaker 3: four percent, that is, of all exports of total goods 121 00:05:59,173 --> 00:06:03,093 Speaker 3: and services that was in the December twenty twenty four quarter. 122 00:06:03,253 --> 00:06:05,133 Speaker 2: Well, there's one point four billion people if you go 123 00:06:05,173 --> 00:06:07,693 Speaker 2: in one point four so it's only one point four 124 00:06:07,973 --> 00:06:10,293 Speaker 2: of our exports, but there's one point four billion people 125 00:06:10,373 --> 00:06:12,653 Speaker 2: up there. Surely we can pump that up a little bit. 126 00:06:12,973 --> 00:06:15,093 Speaker 2: But have you done business with India? I mean, it's 127 00:06:15,133 --> 00:06:17,813 Speaker 2: easy to say that you get a you know, a 128 00:06:17,813 --> 00:06:20,173 Speaker 2: free trade deal with India and look, it looks like 129 00:06:20,253 --> 00:06:21,893 Speaker 2: dairy is unlikely to be on there, but you get 130 00:06:21,933 --> 00:06:23,413 Speaker 2: a deal. How do you go about that? Have you 131 00:06:23,453 --> 00:06:26,373 Speaker 2: done business with India? Have you done business on the 132 00:06:26,373 --> 00:06:29,093 Speaker 2: ground in India? Because you know, I've been to India 133 00:06:29,173 --> 00:06:32,013 Speaker 2: a couple of times and I've got to say it's 134 00:06:32,293 --> 00:06:35,013 Speaker 2: very different on the ground. Yeah, you know, you good 135 00:06:35,093 --> 00:06:36,493 Speaker 2: luck trying to drive a car around there if you 136 00:06:36,493 --> 00:06:39,653 Speaker 2: don't know how it works. It's like a float. In Bangalore. 137 00:06:40,053 --> 00:06:42,853 Speaker 2: The traffic flows like a river. People aren't stopping at intersections. 138 00:06:42,853 --> 00:06:46,813 Speaker 2: It's just you know that the logistics of getting around 139 00:06:46,973 --> 00:06:50,133 Speaker 2: is interesting. Are you trying to do business with India 140 00:06:50,173 --> 00:06:55,213 Speaker 2: and what are the challenges logistically and culturally? And is 141 00:06:55,253 --> 00:06:58,173 Speaker 2: it even a thing do we have? Because what are 142 00:06:58,213 --> 00:06:59,893 Speaker 2: we going to export to India? 143 00:07:00,173 --> 00:07:00,333 Speaker 5: Well? 144 00:07:00,373 --> 00:07:03,613 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you take dairy and off, you know, what 145 00:07:03,653 --> 00:07:06,733 Speaker 2: are we going to do? I mean, some wine, some apples? 146 00:07:06,813 --> 00:07:10,653 Speaker 3: Well have we got Well apparently we higher tariffs on 147 00:07:10,693 --> 00:07:14,853 Speaker 3: our wine and apple exports than our Australian counterparts. So 148 00:07:14,933 --> 00:07:17,893 Speaker 3: that surely is something that our Prime minister can hopefully change. 149 00:07:17,973 --> 00:07:19,893 Speaker 2: Flood them with some wine. Yep, that's good. 150 00:07:20,173 --> 00:07:21,933 Speaker 3: What else have we got? L and P? I mean, 151 00:07:21,973 --> 00:07:23,693 Speaker 3: you know what else do they want? You're quite right, 152 00:07:23,773 --> 00:07:27,053 Speaker 3: but clearly that is a massive international market. We do 153 00:07:27,413 --> 00:07:29,533 Speaker 3: a lot of trade with China, but with the world 154 00:07:29,573 --> 00:07:31,253 Speaker 3: the way it is at the moment, do we need 155 00:07:31,293 --> 00:07:38,013 Speaker 3: to be making some more leguway with the Indian subcontinently. 156 00:07:36,773 --> 00:07:38,733 Speaker 2: On the other side of the coin, if you've come 157 00:07:38,773 --> 00:07:41,213 Speaker 2: to New Zealand from India and you're doing business here? 158 00:07:41,613 --> 00:07:44,093 Speaker 2: What is the differences on the ground here, Because you 159 00:07:44,093 --> 00:07:45,933 Speaker 2: know that'll tell us a lot about that, doesn't the 160 00:07:46,493 --> 00:07:50,853 Speaker 2: whole the whole business and admin and logistics of trade 161 00:07:50,893 --> 00:07:51,733 Speaker 2: between the two countries. 162 00:07:51,813 --> 00:07:53,933 Speaker 3: YEP, keen to hear from you.

Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is 178 00:08:42,413 --> 00:08:42,773 Speaker 3: the number. 179 00:08:42,773 --> 00:08:43,012 Speaker 2: To call. 180 00:08:43,093 --> 00:08:44,693 Speaker 3: Nineteen nine two is the text number. 181 00:08:45,333 --> 00:08:47,933 Speaker 2: Welcome to show Mike. You've done a bit of business 182 00:08:47,933 --> 00:08:49,533 Speaker 2: in India, I believe. 183 00:08:50,773 --> 00:08:54,252 Speaker 6: Yeah, Matt. Back in twenty sixteen, I spent a year 184 00:08:54,333 --> 00:08:57,732 Speaker 6: going up and down from Auckland helping out a sister 185 00:08:57,773 --> 00:08:58,293 Speaker 6: company there. 186 00:08:58,813 --> 00:09:01,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, and what cities was that in? 187 00:09:02,492 --> 00:09:04,653 Speaker 6: It was in Mumbai, which was a cool place. 188 00:09:05,252 --> 00:09:07,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know it's a cool place. What are 189 00:09:07,732 --> 00:09:10,853 Speaker 2: the challenges doing a business in a huge place like 190 00:09:10,973 --> 00:09:12,252 Speaker 2: Mumbai for a Kiwi. 191 00:09:14,173 --> 00:09:16,413 Speaker 6: Well, apart from the traffic being a bit busier in 192 00:09:16,453 --> 00:09:20,652 Speaker 6: the talktook horns being incessant, I think the biggest thing 193 00:09:20,653 --> 00:09:23,573 Speaker 6: I found was just the cultures different. I mean, India 194 00:09:23,693 --> 00:09:27,372 Speaker 6: is I don't know, people have to wherek and fight 195 00:09:27,413 --> 00:09:29,573 Speaker 6: a lot harder than New Zealand, so things are a 196 00:09:29,612 --> 00:09:33,373 Speaker 6: bit more aggressive. It's honest in a way, but yeah, 197 00:09:33,492 --> 00:09:37,813 Speaker 6: it was just Keys are pretty laid back and India 198 00:09:37,892 --> 00:09:40,573 Speaker 6: is just a little bit more confrontation, I guess, And 199 00:09:40,973 --> 00:09:42,213 Speaker 6: the same applies to business. 200 00:09:42,693 --> 00:09:45,813 Speaker 3: Was there quite a few challenges to tap into that market? 201 00:09:45,933 --> 00:09:46,133 Speaker 2: Mike? 202 00:09:46,213 --> 00:09:47,733 Speaker 3: How did that work for you to try and get 203 00:09:47,732 --> 00:09:48,533 Speaker 3: in in the first place? 204 00:09:49,573 --> 00:09:52,493 Speaker 6: Well, I wasn't there going so much to get into 205 00:09:52,492 --> 00:09:55,172 Speaker 6: a market. I was actually supporting a sister company. I 206 00:09:55,252 --> 00:09:58,293 Speaker 6: work for a Swiss company, and so I was there 207 00:09:58,293 --> 00:10:00,492 Speaker 6: to help them look at their go to market strategy 208 00:10:00,653 --> 00:10:02,693 Speaker 6: and their operations and so. 209 00:10:04,132 --> 00:10:09,372 Speaker 2: Are there different societal norms in business dealings in India? 210 00:10:10,132 --> 00:10:10,372 Speaker 7: Yeah? 211 00:10:10,453 --> 00:10:13,453 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I worked in the medical device area, 212 00:10:14,213 --> 00:10:16,773 Speaker 6: where you're sort of bound by various codes of ethics 213 00:10:16,813 --> 00:10:20,853 Speaker 6: and so on. And probably the biggest societal normal was 214 00:10:21,732 --> 00:10:24,173 Speaker 6: it was quite normal to have a salesand incentive for 215 00:10:24,252 --> 00:10:27,773 Speaker 6: customers because we're a wholesale business where if you brought 216 00:10:27,813 --> 00:10:31,053 Speaker 6: its amount of products you got gold, which to me 217 00:10:31,293 --> 00:10:32,733 Speaker 6: was just a really weird thing. 218 00:10:32,852 --> 00:10:36,132 Speaker 2: You've got gold like actual gold bars? 219 00:10:36,173 --> 00:10:39,252 Speaker 6: Correct, just totally different. 220 00:10:39,453 --> 00:10:41,653 Speaker 3: And how did you trade those? Were they're shops set 221 00:10:41,732 --> 00:10:43,292 Speaker 3: up to try and trade those in? Were there? 222 00:10:43,813 --> 00:10:44,213 Speaker 4: All right? 223 00:10:44,252 --> 00:10:44,453 Speaker 8: Well? 224 00:10:44,492 --> 00:10:46,973 Speaker 6: They vout through a dealer or something. Unfortunately I need 225 00:10:47,093 --> 00:10:48,933 Speaker 6: got the gold. Yeah. 226 00:10:50,053 --> 00:10:52,413 Speaker 2: I wonder what that is? Is that because gold is 227 00:10:52,413 --> 00:10:55,693 Speaker 2: such a secure, sort of guaranteed thing over there in 228 00:10:55,693 --> 00:11:01,532 Speaker 2: a slightly I guess more tumultuous financial situation, it. 229 00:11:01,533 --> 00:11:06,412 Speaker 6: Could be that it could just be they dislike the bling. 230 00:11:07,053 --> 00:11:09,333 Speaker 2: Yeah, have you ever did you come back here and 231 00:11:09,333 --> 00:11:13,093 Speaker 2: bring that knowledge of you know, giving gold bonuses back 232 00:11:13,132 --> 00:11:15,493 Speaker 2: here and trying and hand out gold in New Zealand. 233 00:11:16,492 --> 00:11:17,612 Speaker 6: They wouldn't really fly that. 234 00:11:18,372 --> 00:11:20,813 Speaker 3: I like the idea of having some gold bullion, but yeah, 235 00:11:20,892 --> 00:11:22,093 Speaker 3: I don't know if you can spend that at the 236 00:11:22,093 --> 00:11:26,333 Speaker 3: supermarket that easy. So in terms of you know, this 237 00:11:26,453 --> 00:11:29,213 Speaker 3: idea of a free trade deal with India, clearly that 238 00:11:29,453 --> 00:11:31,012 Speaker 3: if we could get that across the line, or the 239 00:11:31,012 --> 00:11:33,973 Speaker 3: Prime Minister gets that across the line, that's incredibly beneficial 240 00:11:34,012 --> 00:11:36,693 Speaker 3: for the country. But what's your take on New Zealand 241 00:11:37,012 --> 00:11:40,093 Speaker 3: trying to get more of you know, trying to tap 242 00:11:40,132 --> 00:11:41,293 Speaker 3: into that market a bit more. 243 00:11:43,372 --> 00:11:46,133 Speaker 6: Look, I think yeah, to be a huge opportunity. I 244 00:11:46,132 --> 00:11:48,613 Speaker 6: think the main thing is you just have to have 245 00:11:48,653 --> 00:11:52,693 Speaker 6: an open mind when you're dealing with people. Spend a 246 00:11:52,653 --> 00:11:56,612 Speaker 6: lot of time to understand how the people you're dealing 247 00:11:56,612 --> 00:12:00,012 Speaker 6: with in India actually work, how the market works, because 248 00:12:00,053 --> 00:12:04,532 Speaker 6: it is different and the distances are so vast nectually. 249 00:12:04,573 --> 00:12:07,012 Speaker 6: One thing that springs to mind as well that it 250 00:12:07,053 --> 00:12:09,013 Speaker 6: took me a while to get my head around unders 251 00:12:09,573 --> 00:12:12,372 Speaker 6: in India they talk about tier one, tier two, tier 252 00:12:12,413 --> 00:12:16,093 Speaker 6: three cities and tier one cities is like Gali, Mumbai 253 00:12:16,132 --> 00:12:19,612 Speaker 6: and so on and so that might be ten plus 254 00:12:19,693 --> 00:12:22,773 Speaker 6: million people. Tier three might be a city the size 255 00:12:22,813 --> 00:12:28,772 Speaker 6: of Auckland, and for our businesses doing business all around India, 256 00:12:29,012 --> 00:12:31,132 Speaker 6: they might not even by the focusing on a Tier 257 00:12:31,173 --> 00:12:36,292 Speaker 6: three city it's too small. So just the scale of 258 00:12:36,372 --> 00:12:37,893 Speaker 6: the market is totally different. 259 00:12:38,173 --> 00:12:40,853 Speaker 2: So I wonder if that's an opportunity if you have 260 00:12:40,973 --> 00:12:43,052 Speaker 2: some product. I'm not sure what it would be. And 261 00:12:43,093 --> 00:12:47,013 Speaker 2: you know, we think Auckland's pretty big and special. That 262 00:12:47,053 --> 00:12:51,693 Speaker 2: you focus on cities that are being huge, cities that 263 00:12:51,732 --> 00:12:53,213 Speaker 2: are being forgotten internationally. 264 00:12:54,653 --> 00:12:56,693 Speaker 6: Yeah, there could be. I mean I think you'd have 265 00:12:56,732 --> 00:12:59,973 Speaker 6: to find the right distribution partner who deals in those 266 00:13:00,053 --> 00:13:01,933 Speaker 6: environments for those cities. 267 00:13:01,933 --> 00:13:05,053 Speaker 2: There, so someone there's a bunch of text saying here 268 00:13:05,132 --> 00:13:09,372 Speaker 2: that dishonesty is an issue in India in business dealings, 269 00:13:09,372 --> 00:13:11,293 Speaker 2: but you're saying that there's a there's a direct you 270 00:13:11,852 --> 00:13:15,253 Speaker 2: experience a directness and a sort of honesty in the 271 00:13:15,252 --> 00:13:16,373 Speaker 2: way things were dealt with. 272 00:13:17,933 --> 00:13:18,173 Speaker 4: Yeah. 273 00:13:18,372 --> 00:13:23,733 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean they always tried to give you the 274 00:13:23,933 --> 00:13:28,413 Speaker 6: answer they think you need. But I think you can 275 00:13:28,453 --> 00:13:31,093 Speaker 6: equally be quite honest about you know, this is what 276 00:13:31,132 --> 00:13:35,133 Speaker 6: you're looking for, this is what you're asking for, whatever, 277 00:13:35,693 --> 00:13:37,933 Speaker 6: and if they say, they say if they say no, 278 00:13:38,053 --> 00:13:41,333 Speaker 6: they say no. I was fortunate in that I wasn't 279 00:13:41,372 --> 00:13:44,172 Speaker 6: really dealing with well, I was dealing with people there 280 00:13:45,012 --> 00:13:48,772 Speaker 6: because we're all part of the same global company. There 281 00:13:48,813 --> 00:13:52,293 Speaker 6: were sort of other rules that we had to follow 282 00:13:52,372 --> 00:13:56,013 Speaker 6: as well, which drove honesty. So I didn't see so 283 00:13:56,173 --> 00:14:00,733 Speaker 6: much direct dealing indications of dishonest dealings in my time there. 284 00:14:01,252 --> 00:14:05,533 Speaker 3: M hm, incredible. I mean, so you said you're working 285 00:14:05,533 --> 00:14:09,133 Speaker 3: for a Swedish company, is that right? That was Swiss company. 286 00:14:09,252 --> 00:14:13,173 Speaker 3: So we're there people on the ground that your company 287 00:14:13,213 --> 00:14:16,213 Speaker 3: had to make contact with, in relationships with to try 288 00:14:16,252 --> 00:14:19,253 Speaker 3: and help you smooth out those differences in doing business. 289 00:14:21,093 --> 00:14:22,253 Speaker 9: No, not really, I mean. 290 00:14:23,973 --> 00:14:28,173 Speaker 6: We in my case anyway, the people I was dealing 291 00:14:28,213 --> 00:14:31,613 Speaker 6: with that name for several years, meeting them at international meetings, 292 00:14:31,613 --> 00:14:36,533 Speaker 6: et cetera, so that relationship already existed. Dealing with customers 293 00:14:36,773 --> 00:14:42,613 Speaker 6: was a little bit different again, just dealing with those 294 00:14:42,653 --> 00:14:47,693 Speaker 6: cultural differences and sort of far more aggressive on the 295 00:14:47,733 --> 00:14:50,613 Speaker 6: business front when we're in a medical device industry that's 296 00:14:50,653 --> 00:14:52,533 Speaker 6: often more clinically focused. 297 00:14:52,733 --> 00:14:56,453 Speaker 2: So yeah, one thing that New Zealand business people often 298 00:14:56,533 --> 00:14:59,093 Speaker 2: mess up is that we love a drink and so 299 00:14:59,213 --> 00:15:02,052 Speaker 2: we think that you know, you do you go through 300 00:15:02,413 --> 00:15:04,973 Speaker 2: a meeting and then afterwards it's get absolutely slammed with 301 00:15:05,013 --> 00:15:08,773 Speaker 2: the people and then make a relationship that seems different 302 00:15:08,773 --> 00:15:12,773 Speaker 2: in India? Is that is that a cultural difference? 303 00:15:13,653 --> 00:15:16,373 Speaker 6: So love a whiskey, mate, good to know. 304 00:15:16,613 --> 00:15:18,573 Speaker 2: All right, thank you so much for your call, Mike. 305 00:15:18,693 --> 00:15:21,853 Speaker 2: Well maybe we can export some alcohol over there.

But in New 314 00:15:39,093 --> 00:15:42,973 Speaker 2: Zealand people will just say yeah maybe maybe maybe.

Oh, 369 00:17:59,413 --> 00:18:01,533 Speaker 3: eight hundred and eighty ten eighties the number to call. 370 00:18:02,053 --> 00:18:07,093 Speaker 3: Some great texts coming through on nine two, nine to two. Guys. 371 00:18:07,093 --> 00:18:14,973 Speaker 3: The India trade tential lamb wine, apples, primary products, seafood. 372 00:18:15,493 --> 00:18:18,733 Speaker 3: I mean that sounds good, but theairy is a massive 373 00:18:18,893 --> 00:18:19,493 Speaker 3: fish up there. 374 00:18:19,613 --> 00:18:22,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't look very likely that would get any 375 00:18:22,493 --> 00:18:26,253 Speaker 2: kind of dairy. There's lots of small farms around there 376 00:18:26,253 --> 00:18:28,333 Speaker 2: that depend on it, so just flooding them with our 377 00:18:28,533 --> 00:18:32,133 Speaker 2: superior product seems unlikely. So what were those ones? 378 00:18:32,853 --> 00:18:34,613 Speaker 3: That was kiwi fruit? 379 00:18:35,253 --> 00:18:35,413 Speaker 10: Oh? 380 00:18:35,613 --> 00:18:38,413 Speaker 3: Education, tourism, sheep meat and seafood. 381 00:18:38,653 --> 00:18:41,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, because that's the thing like when when someone comes 382 00:18:41,093 --> 00:18:43,213 Speaker 2: to study in New Zealand, that's seen as an export 383 00:18:43,213 --> 00:18:46,413 Speaker 2: because they bring money in here. So education is something 384 00:18:46,453 --> 00:18:51,773 Speaker 2: that we're selling to India. Mahish, welcome to the show. 385 00:18:51,853 --> 00:18:54,253 Speaker 2: You're from India originally. 386 00:18:54,133 --> 00:18:55,893 Speaker 11: Well, I was born India. 387 00:18:55,973 --> 00:18:57,653 Speaker 5: My early child was in Singapore. 388 00:18:57,733 --> 00:18:59,653 Speaker 11: I came to New Zealand on my own. I was fourteen, 389 00:18:59,853 --> 00:19:01,533 Speaker 11: so been here a while. 390 00:19:01,733 --> 00:19:03,773 Speaker 2: So you came here by your by yourself when you 391 00:19:03,813 --> 00:19:04,293 Speaker 2: were fourteen? 392 00:19:05,373 --> 00:19:05,653 Speaker 7: Correct? 393 00:19:05,733 --> 00:19:06,413 Speaker 12: Yeah? 394 00:19:06,493 --> 00:19:07,573 Speaker 2: And what was that. 395 00:19:09,253 --> 00:19:09,453 Speaker 9: Right? 396 00:19:09,493 --> 00:19:12,292 Speaker 2: And you what you signed up to a school as 397 00:19:12,293 --> 00:19:13,292 Speaker 2: an international student? 398 00:19:14,493 --> 00:19:17,373 Speaker 5: No, I was just homestaying sporting. 399 00:19:18,213 --> 00:19:20,173 Speaker 11: So I grew up at the KIWI since I was young. 400 00:19:20,333 --> 00:19:23,453 Speaker 5: But have been back to India multiple times and have 401 00:19:23,573 --> 00:19:26,333 Speaker 5: as have also worked there for a few months. 402 00:19:26,373 --> 00:19:26,973 Speaker 3: Fantastic. 403 00:19:27,213 --> 00:19:29,253 Speaker 2: And what do you think of the main difference is 404 00:19:29,293 --> 00:19:31,973 Speaker 2: when it comes to business between the two places. 405 00:19:32,533 --> 00:19:33,253 Speaker 7: Yeah, so I think. 406 00:19:33,293 --> 00:19:35,532 Speaker 5: I think what's really important to understand is you're talking 407 00:19:35,573 --> 00:19:39,133 Speaker 5: about an incredibly massive country, right like it's one point 408 00:19:39,213 --> 00:19:41,773 Speaker 5: four billion people. The way you want to think about 409 00:19:41,813 --> 00:19:47,253 Speaker 5: it is Europe like many different states, many different languages, 410 00:19:47,573 --> 00:19:51,173 Speaker 5: many different cultures, with generally a common story and a 411 00:19:51,213 --> 00:19:54,373 Speaker 5: common value system. The previous call, I talked about tier one, 412 00:19:54,413 --> 00:19:57,693 Speaker 5: tier two, tier three, and that kind of segmentation is 413 00:19:57,733 --> 00:20:00,093 Speaker 5: really important to understand. So when we talk about India, 414 00:20:00,133 --> 00:20:03,333 Speaker 5: you're actually talking about a certain demographic first or a 415 00:20:03,333 --> 00:20:05,532 Speaker 5: certain state first, and that's the way you want to 416 00:20:05,573 --> 00:20:10,133 Speaker 5: think about it. I think to appreciate is the rule 417 00:20:10,173 --> 00:20:15,253 Speaker 5: of law is nowhere close to Australia museums, right like, 418 00:20:15,413 --> 00:20:20,213 Speaker 5: so the how contracts would work, whether things are going 419 00:20:20,253 --> 00:20:23,813 Speaker 5: to be followed through on and signal reading in regards 420 00:20:23,853 --> 00:20:26,213 Speaker 5: to hey, what this person meant, what you see is 421 00:20:26,253 --> 00:20:30,013 Speaker 5: what you get is hard. So any business, museum business 422 00:20:30,053 --> 00:20:32,613 Speaker 5: that wants to have a crack at India has to 423 00:20:32,653 --> 00:20:36,853 Speaker 5: spend about two years paying cost on learning on how 424 00:20:36,893 --> 00:20:40,973 Speaker 5: to trade. But say you pay that cost, then it's 425 00:20:41,053 --> 00:20:43,893 Speaker 5: all upside. But that first two years it's gonna be 426 00:20:43,893 --> 00:20:45,733 Speaker 5: hard because you're gonna have to learn a lot. You're 427 00:20:45,773 --> 00:20:47,493 Speaker 5: gonna have to understand signals, you're gonna have to set 428 00:20:47,573 --> 00:20:50,773 Speaker 5: up relationships that have to go past contracts. But once 429 00:20:50,853 --> 00:20:54,773 Speaker 5: you do that, you're talking about a growth of six 430 00:20:54,853 --> 00:20:57,373 Speaker 5: to seven percent for the next ten to fifteen years, 431 00:20:57,533 --> 00:20:59,213 Speaker 5: which is going to be unreal. But you've got to 432 00:20:59,253 --> 00:21:01,693 Speaker 5: be willing to put in that two years. 433 00:21:01,933 --> 00:21:04,292 Speaker 2: So that's so that's on the ground. So you have 434 00:21:04,373 --> 00:21:07,213 Speaker 2: to spend time there making the relationships face to face 435 00:21:07,293 --> 00:21:07,973 Speaker 2: over there. 436 00:21:08,893 --> 00:21:11,293 Speaker 5: Correct, correct, you have to really and and if you 437 00:21:11,333 --> 00:21:14,093 Speaker 5: spend time and it's it'll be there'll be all kinds 438 00:21:14,093 --> 00:21:16,373 Speaker 5: of things that happen, right like, So for example, I'll 439 00:21:16,373 --> 00:21:19,053 Speaker 5: give you this sort of an example, say someone comes 440 00:21:19,093 --> 00:21:20,973 Speaker 5: and just you know, you say you've got a car park, 441 00:21:20,973 --> 00:21:23,093 Speaker 5: You're an office car park something. If someone just some 442 00:21:23,573 --> 00:21:26,853 Speaker 5: thug just kind of stands for the car park, the police, 443 00:21:26,853 --> 00:21:28,693 Speaker 5: I'm gonna come around and sort it out. You're gonna 444 00:21:28,693 --> 00:21:30,053 Speaker 5: have to pay someone to sort it out. 445 00:21:30,373 --> 00:21:32,893 Speaker 7: Right. That's a small. 446 00:21:32,733 --> 00:21:36,453 Speaker 5: Little example of many, many things you're gonna have to 447 00:21:36,533 --> 00:21:42,173 Speaker 5: work to navigate. And the best bridge for qv businesses 448 00:21:42,213 --> 00:21:47,213 Speaker 5: and kiwis going over the Indian diaspora here really happening 449 00:21:47,333 --> 00:21:51,532 Speaker 5: into and learning because I'm not Indian, like I trust me, 450 00:21:51,653 --> 00:21:53,333 Speaker 5: if I go there, I get I get eaten up, 451 00:21:53,493 --> 00:21:58,213 Speaker 5: no doubt. But if there are so many people who've 452 00:21:58,213 --> 00:22:01,493 Speaker 5: recently come and who are hungry and want to do 453 00:22:01,613 --> 00:22:04,413 Speaker 5: good and want to be a bridge should tap into them. 454 00:22:04,973 --> 00:22:07,653 Speaker 5: You look at the followers. You look at the followers 455 00:22:07,693 --> 00:22:10,533 Speaker 5: of all of our cricketers. Yeah, you look at Simon Dual, 456 00:22:10,733 --> 00:22:14,813 Speaker 5: Scott staris Rutchian, Russian's hot. So how do we use 457 00:22:14,893 --> 00:22:18,853 Speaker 5: the commonalities like the Indian diace break here, like the 458 00:22:18,933 --> 00:22:23,093 Speaker 5: cricketers extra TRC to act as a channel, as a bridge, 459 00:22:23,533 --> 00:22:26,653 Speaker 5: so that we can understand this huge growth engine that's 460 00:22:26,693 --> 00:22:28,653 Speaker 5: going to keep going for the next ten to fifteen years. 461 00:22:28,733 --> 00:22:31,213 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's an interesting point because when I've been in India, 462 00:22:31,253 --> 00:22:34,133 Speaker 2: I've been amazed that had the high profile that New 463 00:22:34,213 --> 00:22:36,333 Speaker 2: Zealand has over there just because of cricket. Because we're, 464 00:22:36,373 --> 00:22:38,333 Speaker 2: you know, one of the nations. We've upset them a 465 00:22:38,373 --> 00:22:40,253 Speaker 2: few times. Not at the end of the Champions Trophy 466 00:22:40,253 --> 00:22:42,493 Speaker 2: they beat us, but they know our players. Their players 467 00:22:42,533 --> 00:22:45,173 Speaker 2: have been superstars in the IPL and of course beas 468 00:22:45,253 --> 00:22:49,733 Speaker 2: McCullum was the first massive superstar in the IPL. So 469 00:22:49,933 --> 00:22:51,933 Speaker 2: that would mean as opposed to a normal nation of 470 00:22:52,013 --> 00:22:55,893 Speaker 2: five million as a as a brand New Zealand is 471 00:22:56,733 --> 00:23:00,693 Speaker 2: no one across India. Would you say that's yeah. 472 00:23:00,493 --> 00:23:01,173 Speaker 7: That's exactly right. 473 00:23:01,253 --> 00:23:04,653 Speaker 5: Let me give you an example. Say we have an hcast 474 00:23:04,733 --> 00:23:09,333 Speaker 5: service provider that wants to move into India and we 475 00:23:09,413 --> 00:23:11,373 Speaker 5: could provide a high end each service. 476 00:23:11,413 --> 00:23:13,213 Speaker 7: Because this business in New Zealand has. 477 00:23:13,053 --> 00:23:14,813 Speaker 5: Worked it out and they want to have a crack, 478 00:23:15,013 --> 00:23:17,853 Speaker 5: So they use one of our cricketers to just open 479 00:23:17,973 --> 00:23:20,053 Speaker 5: up in US in a high profile state and Tier 480 00:23:20,053 --> 00:23:22,213 Speaker 5: one state and just get it going and you pay 481 00:23:22,293 --> 00:23:25,413 Speaker 5: costs right for the first two years. After a while, 482 00:23:25,613 --> 00:23:27,333 Speaker 5: the market just takes care of itself. 483 00:23:27,653 --> 00:23:30,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, thanks so much for you call. 484 00:23:30,333 --> 00:23:32,733 Speaker 3: Great to chat with you.

Now you've been here 717 00:34:37,733 --> 00:34:40,813 Speaker 3: for twenty years? But what's your take on doing business 718 00:34:40,893 --> 00:34:43,573 Speaker 3: in India and whether we can get a foothold in 719 00:34:43,653 --> 00:34:44,133 Speaker 3: the country. 720 00:34:45,213 --> 00:34:48,253 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think it's possible. I think it's the high 721 00:34:48,373 --> 00:34:51,413 Speaker 9: value you know, items like like I travel you know 722 00:34:51,493 --> 00:34:53,453 Speaker 9: quite a lot too, you know, like other parts of 723 00:34:53,493 --> 00:34:57,533 Speaker 9: Asia like Thailand for example, you know, or you've got 724 00:34:57,533 --> 00:34:59,533 Speaker 9: to the Middle East like Dubai. So you see a 725 00:34:59,533 --> 00:35:03,453 Speaker 9: lot of meat, you know, like lamb and whatever. You 726 00:35:03,533 --> 00:35:06,093 Speaker 9: see a lot of new Zealand. You know, Australian meat 727 00:35:06,133 --> 00:35:11,093 Speaker 9: over there. Looking in the meat itself, similar to Thailand. 728 00:35:11,173 --> 00:35:15,373 Speaker 9: It's not a very good quality the domestic ones, right, 729 00:35:15,853 --> 00:35:19,413 Speaker 9: So I think, yeah, I mean, we can't penetrate into 730 00:35:19,653 --> 00:35:22,973 Speaker 9: entire Indian market. It will be you know, like say, 731 00:35:23,053 --> 00:35:25,973 Speaker 9: you know, the like extensive like high end sort of 732 00:35:26,053 --> 00:35:29,173 Speaker 9: dining sort of places and things like that, so it 733 00:35:29,213 --> 00:35:32,813 Speaker 9: would be a targeted Yeah. I mean, kivy fruit is 734 00:35:32,813 --> 00:35:35,333 Speaker 9: everywhere in India, you know, it's all over the world now, 735 00:35:35,373 --> 00:35:38,733 Speaker 9: so kiv we've already done it with kiv fruit. But 736 00:35:38,773 --> 00:35:42,133 Speaker 9: I think meat would be a very high even though 737 00:35:42,173 --> 00:35:43,853 Speaker 9: Indian like, you know, a lot of people think it's 738 00:35:44,093 --> 00:35:45,653 Speaker 9: like full of veget areas or whatever. 739 00:35:45,733 --> 00:35:45,893 Speaker 13: You know. 740 00:35:47,733 --> 00:35:49,373 Speaker 9: I come from Bangalore, so you know, I know, you 741 00:35:49,373 --> 00:35:52,373 Speaker 9: guys have been talking about Bangalora and all that, so 742 00:35:52,413 --> 00:35:55,413 Speaker 9: it's a yeah. I mean, in the South, we're not 743 00:35:55,573 --> 00:35:58,252 Speaker 9: really much into the drinking culture. Like in the north, 744 00:35:58,293 --> 00:36:01,293 Speaker 9: it's more common because it gets colder up there and 745 00:36:01,333 --> 00:36:04,893 Speaker 9: you know, but in the south, even though it's like hot, 746 00:36:05,053 --> 00:36:07,173 Speaker 9: black people are not even into like drinking beer and 747 00:36:07,213 --> 00:36:11,133 Speaker 9: things like that, you know, not much. So I don't 748 00:36:11,173 --> 00:36:14,053 Speaker 9: know about alcohol if it would really work. 749 00:36:15,373 --> 00:36:19,493 Speaker 2: But is it much wine drunken India? 750 00:36:19,813 --> 00:36:21,853 Speaker 9: Not where I come from, Like in the south and 751 00:36:21,973 --> 00:36:24,933 Speaker 9: in Bangalore, it's not very common. Like you know, it's 752 00:36:25,733 --> 00:36:28,093 Speaker 9: seems to be more common up north, like you know, 753 00:36:28,293 --> 00:36:31,373 Speaker 9: the more you go towards Delhi and you know, all 754 00:36:31,413 --> 00:36:34,573 Speaker 9: those kind of places. But in the South it's not 755 00:36:34,693 --> 00:36:37,053 Speaker 9: common at all. And even in business meetings and things 756 00:36:37,133 --> 00:36:40,133 Speaker 9: like that, I don't think it would really be appropriate 757 00:36:40,213 --> 00:36:42,453 Speaker 9: to you know, sug style, let's just go out for 758 00:36:42,493 --> 00:36:43,453 Speaker 9: a drink sort of thing. 759 00:36:43,533 --> 00:36:45,413 Speaker 2: You know, how often do you get back over there? 760 00:36:45,533 --> 00:36:47,533 Speaker 2: And how much is it changing? So you've been here 761 00:36:47,533 --> 00:36:49,253 Speaker 2: for twenty years, so how much has it changed in 762 00:36:49,253 --> 00:36:51,773 Speaker 2: that twenty years? Is it becoming more effulent? Is there 763 00:36:51,813 --> 00:36:54,373 Speaker 2: more business opportunities that you can see? 764 00:36:54,853 --> 00:36:55,013 Speaker 12: Oh? 765 00:36:55,093 --> 00:36:57,853 Speaker 9: Yes, yes, I mean even after COVID. So this is 766 00:36:57,853 --> 00:37:00,293 Speaker 9: the interesting thing. After COVID, I went just and had 767 00:37:00,333 --> 00:37:03,093 Speaker 9: a look and it was just just transformed, you know, 768 00:37:03,293 --> 00:37:05,613 Speaker 9: like you know, we all know what happened and during 769 00:37:05,653 --> 00:37:08,533 Speaker 9: COVID in India, and I was really curious as like, okay, 770 00:37:08,573 --> 00:37:09,933 Speaker 9: let's go and have a look. And just after a 771 00:37:09,973 --> 00:37:13,253 Speaker 9: year or two, there were so many businesses opening everywhere, 772 00:37:13,253 --> 00:37:17,213 Speaker 9: and it was just absolutely amazing. And again I'm not 773 00:37:17,373 --> 00:37:20,013 Speaker 9: being biased. I went to Thailand and Dubai and all 774 00:37:20,053 --> 00:37:23,133 Speaker 9: those places after COVID they were still struggling, you know, 775 00:37:23,173 --> 00:37:25,413 Speaker 9: They're not getting the same number of tourists and a 776 00:37:25,413 --> 00:37:29,053 Speaker 9: lot of businesses were shut down. But India, for some reason, 777 00:37:29,173 --> 00:37:34,213 Speaker 9: it just like absolutely transformed. You know, they've they've faced 778 00:37:34,253 --> 00:37:36,373 Speaker 9: it head on and I don't know whatever they did, 779 00:37:36,933 --> 00:37:41,053 Speaker 9: it just it's just come out really well after the pandemic. 780 00:37:41,093 --> 00:37:44,933 Speaker 9: And there's not many countries that have, you know, I 781 00:37:44,973 --> 00:37:49,172 Speaker 9: mean even China is struggling, you know, So I mean, 782 00:37:49,213 --> 00:37:51,172 Speaker 9: if we can do it business in China, I mean, 783 00:37:51,213 --> 00:37:53,493 Speaker 9: India should be easier, to be honest, because of the 784 00:37:53,893 --> 00:37:57,573 Speaker 9: English and cricket and you know, and you know there's 785 00:37:57,613 --> 00:38:00,333 Speaker 9: lots of common ground, you know, not being part of 786 00:38:00,493 --> 00:38:02,613 Speaker 9: kind of the Commonwealth and things like that. 787 00:38:03,853 --> 00:38:07,413 Speaker 3: So yeah, common ground, Yeah, I mean certainly, you know, 788 00:38:07,613 --> 00:38:10,013 Speaker 3: I think we most of us would agree that if 789 00:38:10,053 --> 00:38:12,093 Speaker 3: we can get some sort of free trade deal or 790 00:38:12,173 --> 00:38:15,133 Speaker 3: tap more into that market, that is hugely beneficial for 791 00:38:15,213 --> 00:38:17,853 Speaker 3: New Zealand. But it's how we do that. And as 792 00:38:17,853 --> 00:38:20,772 Speaker 3: you say, India as fast developing, if we can get 793 00:38:20,773 --> 00:38:23,293 Speaker 3: in on the ground floor and and join up with 794 00:38:23,333 --> 00:38:26,893 Speaker 3: those those trade agreements. Then surely that is good for 795 00:38:26,933 --> 00:38:27,172 Speaker 3: all them. 796 00:38:27,173 --> 00:38:28,853 Speaker 2: I mean a good start would be direct flights to 797 00:38:28,893 --> 00:38:32,133 Speaker 2: India because it's actually you'll back me up on this 798 00:38:32,213 --> 00:38:35,053 Speaker 2: is actually quite a punishing route to get to India, 799 00:38:35,133 --> 00:38:35,493 Speaker 2: isn't it. 800 00:38:37,893 --> 00:38:38,093 Speaker 9: Yeah? 801 00:38:38,173 --> 00:38:38,853 Speaker 7: Exactly?

I'd 806 00:38:47,333 --> 00:38:49,172 Speaker 9: still break up my trip, but yet it would be 807 00:38:49,653 --> 00:38:51,333 Speaker 9: great to have direct flights. 808 00:38:52,693 --> 00:38:52,893 Speaker 15: You know. 809 00:38:53,213 --> 00:38:55,173 Speaker 9: I think it's coming, like you know, they've been talking 810 00:38:55,213 --> 00:38:57,373 Speaker 9: about it.

Those negotiations fell apart, so 862 00:41:13,533 --> 00:41:16,692 Speaker 3: the last round of negotiations, the tenth round, occurred in 863 00:41:16,733 --> 00:41:20,493 Speaker 3: Delhi in twenty fifteen, and at this stage there are 864 00:41:20,573 --> 00:41:24,493 Speaker 3: still no formal negotiations taking place until now, so Christopher 865 00:41:24,573 --> 00:41:26,933 Speaker 3: lux and our Prime minister is picking that back up 866 00:41:26,973 --> 00:41:29,973 Speaker 3: when he meets with Prime Minister Modi twenty fifteen. 867 00:41:30,693 --> 00:41:33,652 Speaker 2: So we've let it slip for ten years.

That 873 00:41:47,933 --> 00:41:48,973 Speaker 3: is a missed opportunity. 874 00:41:49,453 --> 00:41:51,652 Speaker 2: Good on Christopher Luxem's trying, but he has zero chance 875 00:41:51,653 --> 00:41:55,533 Speaker 2: of securing a trade agreement this time round. Dairy industry 876 00:41:55,573 --> 00:41:58,053 Speaker 2: is sticking point as local farmers there will resist us 877 00:41:58,093 --> 00:42:01,732 Speaker 2: pushing our product into their country.

What's your take 903 00:43:03,573 --> 00:43:04,893 Speaker 3: on doing business in India? 904 00:43:06,293 --> 00:43:10,573 Speaker 16: Well, my appearance Ran moved to India in the late 905 00:43:10,653 --> 00:43:17,093 Speaker 16: nineteen nineties through Fletcher Building and randomly they foresaw i 906 00:43:17,093 --> 00:43:20,293 Speaker 16: think the technology boom that was going to happen up there, 907 00:43:20,413 --> 00:43:24,693 Speaker 16: and so they moved into Bangalore and set up concrete plants, 908 00:43:25,213 --> 00:43:29,413 Speaker 16: basically building out the technology parks up there. So I've 909 00:43:29,453 --> 00:43:31,653 Speaker 16: been sort of going up and back to India for 910 00:43:31,693 --> 00:43:36,453 Speaker 16: the last twenty five years and had seen enormous change 911 00:43:36,453 --> 00:43:38,973 Speaker 16: and have been banging on for a long time that 912 00:43:39,213 --> 00:43:43,253 Speaker 16: this is where our future trading's got to be. You 913 00:43:43,333 --> 00:43:50,253 Speaker 16: can't underestimate the absolute size of the population. And I 914 00:43:50,253 --> 00:43:52,413 Speaker 16: think one of the biggest things I've noticed over the 915 00:43:52,453 --> 00:43:56,652 Speaker 16: twenty years is that off the back of the technology industry, 916 00:43:57,133 --> 00:44:02,053 Speaker 16: the Indians are very, very educated. They all children basically 917 00:44:02,093 --> 00:44:05,013 Speaker 16: go to school six days a week. They're very focused 918 00:44:05,533 --> 00:44:09,373 Speaker 16: on education and there's a massive or wealth up there 919 00:44:09,453 --> 00:44:13,533 Speaker 16: now that's been built off that, and they love now 920 00:44:13,573 --> 00:44:17,493 Speaker 16: they're connected through technology. Even people I was up in 921 00:44:17,693 --> 00:44:21,772 Speaker 16: Mumbai last week, even people in the slums have got 922 00:44:21,773 --> 00:44:24,692 Speaker 16: cell phones, so they're connected to the world. They want 923 00:44:24,733 --> 00:44:30,373 Speaker 16: the products, they love kiweeds, and actually they're traveling a 924 00:44:30,373 --> 00:44:34,693 Speaker 16: lot more around the world. So you know, alongside the 925 00:44:34,773 --> 00:44:37,853 Speaker 16: trade deal, I think if the New Zealand can get 926 00:44:37,853 --> 00:44:41,613 Speaker 16: some direct flights up there, there's massive bonuses for they 927 00:44:41,773 --> 00:44:45,013 Speaker 16: getting tourism up and back into New Zealand. 928 00:44:45,373 --> 00:44:47,813 Speaker 3: Was that quite a bad yeah, sorry to jump in there, Nikki. 929 00:44:47,933 --> 00:44:49,813 Speaker 3: Was that quite a big thing for your parents to 930 00:44:49,933 --> 00:44:52,773 Speaker 3: go over to India to try and set up business 931 00:44:52,813 --> 00:44:54,573 Speaker 3: that must have been you know, there must have been 932 00:44:54,573 --> 00:44:55,772 Speaker 3: some challenges in front of them. 933 00:44:56,373 --> 00:44:59,253 Speaker 16: Oh, it was the wild West in the late nineties. 934 00:44:59,453 --> 00:45:03,212 Speaker 16: Everyone thought they were absolutely nuts for dying up there. 935 00:45:04,373 --> 00:45:06,213 Speaker 16: In fact, I was the only person out of all 936 00:45:06,293 --> 00:45:09,413 Speaker 16: their family and friends that ever went to visit. It 937 00:45:09,613 --> 00:45:13,293 Speaker 16: was wild I remember, you know, Dad telling stories about 938 00:45:13,573 --> 00:45:16,813 Speaker 16: I mean, back in those days, you would literally have 939 00:45:16,853 --> 00:45:19,013 Speaker 16: to bribe people to get stuff done. It was just 940 00:45:19,173 --> 00:45:24,533 Speaker 16: how business was done back then. But you know, they 941 00:45:24,653 --> 00:45:29,693 Speaker 16: built relationships the cricket Even back then, Dad, you know, 942 00:45:29,773 --> 00:45:32,333 Speaker 16: would go and sit in his young cricket team when 943 00:45:32,333 --> 00:45:37,333 Speaker 16: they were in Bangalore, and you know, build those relationships. 944 00:45:37,333 --> 00:45:43,213 Speaker 16: You're very social people. Funnily enough, flecking out talking about 945 00:45:43,213 --> 00:45:46,093 Speaker 16: the guy that was talking about alcohol up there. I 946 00:45:46,253 --> 00:45:49,413 Speaker 16: just took a group of nine girlfriends up who are 947 00:45:49,493 --> 00:45:51,933 Speaker 16: all first time is and sort of as a bit 948 00:45:51,973 --> 00:45:56,973 Speaker 16: of a tour. And you know, twenty years ago when 949 00:45:57,013 --> 00:46:01,333 Speaker 16: mum lived there, she couldn't get wine. Basically it was impossible. Now, 950 00:46:01,773 --> 00:46:05,453 Speaker 16: you know, most restaurants have got small amount of wine. 951 00:46:05,493 --> 00:46:09,813 Speaker 16: It's hugely expensive, massive taxes, but there's a massive market 952 00:46:10,253 --> 00:46:14,453 Speaker 16: up there. They are starting to drink more wine and 953 00:46:15,173 --> 00:46:19,373 Speaker 16: get beyond the traditional just Kingfisher or whiskey. They love spirits, 954 00:46:19,453 --> 00:46:22,933 Speaker 16: but that whole market is massive. If we can tappen 955 00:46:23,293 --> 00:46:27,893 Speaker 16: even a little bit. Yeah, it's insane. To give you 956 00:46:27,893 --> 00:46:31,493 Speaker 16: a perspective of like Mumbai, or went to Queen Victory 957 00:46:31,613 --> 00:46:35,093 Speaker 16: Station last week, which is the main train station. They 958 00:46:35,373 --> 00:46:39,253 Speaker 16: have ten million people come through that station every single day, 959 00:46:39,493 --> 00:46:39,853 Speaker 16: come and to. 960 00:46:39,893 --> 00:46:41,053 Speaker 2: Work twice the population. 961 00:46:42,413 --> 00:46:46,692 Speaker 16: Yeah, it's it's insane the amounts people. But they are consumers. 962 00:46:46,813 --> 00:46:49,813 Speaker 16: They love stuff. I think we need to go for 963 00:46:49,933 --> 00:46:54,053 Speaker 16: it as hard as we can. Very probably is going 964 00:46:54,093 --> 00:46:56,373 Speaker 16: to have to wait. But having said that, they don't 965 00:46:56,813 --> 00:46:59,853 Speaker 16: drink a lot of cow's milk, the Hindos, so they 966 00:47:00,013 --> 00:47:03,533 Speaker 16: tend to have buffalo milk. So we have to think, 967 00:47:03,733 --> 00:47:05,573 Speaker 16: you know, strategically through there. 968 00:47:05,773 --> 00:47:10,333 Speaker 17: But your parents must have if you don't mind me asking, 969 00:47:10,453 --> 00:47:12,973 Speaker 17: They must have done pretty well getting into concrete over 970 00:47:13,013 --> 00:47:16,373 Speaker 17: the cement over there in the late nineties, because you 971 00:47:16,373 --> 00:47:20,813 Speaker 17: know famous famous concrete billionaires in India. 972 00:47:21,973 --> 00:47:25,093 Speaker 16: Well, yes, although it was fle Dad was working for 973 00:47:25,173 --> 00:47:29,533 Speaker 16: Fleas and so they had I don't know how it 974 00:47:29,573 --> 00:47:35,493 Speaker 16: came about, but Fletcher's decided to go into Fiji, South America. 975 00:47:36,253 --> 00:47:39,813 Speaker 16: I think so Peru and India, and as it turned out, 976 00:47:40,133 --> 00:47:43,253 Speaker 16: mum dirting it up in India. They ended up selling 977 00:47:43,533 --> 00:47:47,413 Speaker 16: out in the long run up there, but I think 978 00:47:47,453 --> 00:47:49,652 Speaker 16: they did get you know, FIUs did pretty well out 979 00:47:49,693 --> 00:47:52,253 Speaker 16: of it at the time.

Digital payments make it 1021 00:49:45,893 --> 00:49:49,453 Speaker 2: easier to transact, So there you go. I mean, there 1022 00:49:49,493 --> 00:49:52,172 Speaker 2: is one point four billion people, but according to this 1023 00:49:52,373 --> 00:49:54,053 Speaker 2: one billion them don't have the money to spend. 1024 00:49:55,053 --> 00:49:58,093 Speaker 3: But that still leaves potentially three hundred million that have 1025 00:49:58,173 --> 00:50:00,333 Speaker 3: got a bit of discretionary spend. 1026 00:50:00,373 --> 00:50:02,533 Speaker 2: Well, according to this one hundred and forty million people. 1027 00:50:02,693 --> 00:50:04,333 Speaker 2: Oh okay, but you don't turn your nose up to 1028 00:50:04,333 --> 00:50:06,533 Speaker 2: one hundred and forty million people. No, how many times 1029 00:50:06,533 --> 00:50:07,733 Speaker 2: a population in New Zealand? 1030 00:50:07,773 --> 00:50:08,212 Speaker 3: Is that about? 1031 00:50:08,413 --> 00:50:08,732 Speaker 7: You know? 1032 00:50:09,053 --> 00:50:11,733 Speaker 3: Fifty Henry, how are here this afternight? 1033 00:50:12,693 --> 00:50:15,293 Speaker 8: Thank Jordan, I'm really good. He I first went in 1034 00:50:15,333 --> 00:50:18,172 Speaker 8: there forty years ago and I've been considerately going going there. 1035 00:50:18,213 --> 00:50:21,293 Speaker 8: So while I wasn't doing economic and financial business, it's 1036 00:50:21,293 --> 00:50:24,493 Speaker 8: been involved in you know, actual multilectrol aid and diplomacy. 1037 00:50:25,173 --> 00:50:27,652 Speaker 8: So I kind of am often asked to give a 1038 00:50:27,693 --> 00:50:31,373 Speaker 8: description about the transition of India. The last said yes, 1039 00:50:31,413 --> 00:50:34,093 Speaker 8: but X wanted to write New Zealanders yep, because New 1040 00:50:34,173 --> 00:50:36,013 Speaker 8: Zealand's an unusual place. You know, we were gathered as 1041 00:50:36,093 --> 00:50:39,293 Speaker 8: having amongst the most corruptory judiciary and governments, and people 1042 00:50:39,293 --> 00:50:41,373 Speaker 8: think this country is corrupt, you need to go to 1043 00:50:41,813 --> 00:50:43,692 Speaker 8: a lot of the one hundred and fifty other Third Board 1044 00:50:43,693 --> 00:50:46,893 Speaker 8: developing countries as well as developed countries to see how 1045 00:50:47,013 --> 00:50:49,933 Speaker 8: clean as it is here. So you're always going to 1046 00:50:49,933 --> 00:50:53,053 Speaker 8: get corruption everywhere you go, but it's not the kind 1047 00:50:53,093 --> 00:50:55,373 Speaker 8: of corruption that we see on television. It's not kind 1048 00:50:55,373 --> 00:50:58,853 Speaker 8: of American style stuff. There's a slow level stuff. Things 1049 00:50:58,893 --> 00:51:01,732 Speaker 8: get done through backhands, big buildings to get done through 1050 00:51:01,733 --> 00:51:03,573 Speaker 8: all these shortcuts that happen. So that's the way the 1051 00:51:03,573 --> 00:51:07,692 Speaker 8: world really works. And we are in this incredible ecosystem 1052 00:51:07,693 --> 00:51:10,413 Speaker 8: that is New zeal We're moderate with the center of order. 1053 00:51:10,733 --> 00:51:13,373 Speaker 8: We're nice. No one hates us. When it gets to 1054 00:51:13,533 --> 00:51:16,733 Speaker 8: playing business. We're not seeing as thing as aggressive. But 1055 00:51:16,853 --> 00:51:19,773 Speaker 8: actually what we're really selling outside of the commodities, we're 1056 00:51:19,813 --> 00:51:23,253 Speaker 8: selling integrity. And that's what New Zealand sells, the kind 1057 00:51:23,293 --> 00:51:25,693 Speaker 8: of things we like to think about ourselves as. And 1058 00:51:25,733 --> 00:51:28,413 Speaker 8: so you can tell that India, I've watched it change 1059 00:51:28,573 --> 00:51:30,413 Speaker 8: and you can see and by the way, it's easy 1060 00:51:30,493 --> 00:51:33,133 Speaker 8: way to describe one in six humans of in India, 1061 00:51:33,173 --> 00:51:36,133 Speaker 8: and you're quite right. India is a third World developing 1062 00:51:36,133 --> 00:51:41,173 Speaker 8: country with poverty, deprivation, and opulence and wealth. But unlike 1063 00:51:41,253 --> 00:51:43,893 Speaker 8: anything anyone's ever going to and I say every New 1064 00:51:43,973 --> 00:51:46,732 Speaker 8: Zealander should go to India and going in an election 1065 00:51:46,853 --> 00:51:49,772 Speaker 8: year where it's crazy as and so all of these 1066 00:51:49,773 --> 00:51:51,973 Speaker 8: things make up So what it is about. It's not 1067 00:51:52,093 --> 00:51:55,093 Speaker 8: just the quality of our stuff. The market is being 1068 00:51:55,213 --> 00:51:57,693 Speaker 8: compared to us. And you know, I've been watching the 1069 00:51:57,693 --> 00:52:01,053 Speaker 8: barometers in India. So the barometers are when they started 1070 00:52:01,053 --> 00:52:02,973 Speaker 8: to put the airports in twenty years ago, they still 1071 00:52:03,013 --> 00:52:06,613 Speaker 8: have the outside toilets with holes in the floor. And 1072 00:52:07,173 --> 00:52:10,053 Speaker 8: interesting the other barometers they bought two hundred are Indi. 1073 00:52:10,053 --> 00:52:13,373 Speaker 8: You Bot two hundred and fifty wide body aircraft, the 1074 00:52:13,413 --> 00:52:16,013 Speaker 8: biggest purchase in the history of aviation a couple of 1075 00:52:16,053 --> 00:52:19,173 Speaker 8: years ago. They also make warships and they buy the 1076 00:52:19,373 --> 00:52:23,733 Speaker 8: armaments from both the Russians and the West the security 1077 00:52:23,733 --> 00:52:26,933 Speaker 8: of that area, So us going in there, our gift 1078 00:52:27,213 --> 00:52:29,853 Speaker 8: is what we do with New Zealanders. And yes they 1079 00:52:29,853 --> 00:52:31,893 Speaker 8: will try and get a sale across the line and 1080 00:52:31,933 --> 00:52:33,493 Speaker 8: all of those things, and we need to just make 1081 00:52:33,533 --> 00:52:36,252 Speaker 8: sure that that's what we're doing. And it's all about 1082 00:52:36,253 --> 00:52:41,013 Speaker 8: the relationship and key with the excellent at developing relationships. 1083 00:52:41,133 --> 00:52:43,973 Speaker 8: So the New Zealand psyche is what our commodity is Oh, that's. 1084 00:52:43,813 --> 00:52:46,533 Speaker 3: Great, and integrity must be worth a lot in that market, 1085 00:52:46,573 --> 00:52:49,653 Speaker 3: well any market for that matter, but particularly a market 1086 00:52:49,693 --> 00:52:52,413 Speaker 3: like India. We can be trusted. 1087 00:52:52,453 --> 00:52:52,933 Speaker 10: That's what we do. 1088 00:52:53,453 --> 00:52:56,413 Speaker 8: We do well our high in commodities. But what we're 1089 00:52:56,453 --> 00:52:59,013 Speaker 8: really doing is we're honored compared to most other players 1090 00:52:59,053 --> 00:53:03,053 Speaker 8: in the market, including those in challenging economies and challenging 1091 00:53:03,053 --> 00:53:05,373 Speaker 8: places like India, which is an incredible paradox. 1092 00:53:05,493 --> 00:53:07,373 Speaker 2: I know what you're saying about elections over there.

Basically, 1174 00:57:09,213 --> 00:57:11,893 Speaker 2: what they're saying is that Indian's wealthy population is not 1175 00:57:12,013 --> 00:57:15,893 Speaker 2: growing in numbers, but is growing considerably in wealth, right, 1176 00:57:16,333 --> 00:57:19,173 Speaker 2: so that those that are getting wealthy are getting much 1177 00:57:19,293 --> 00:57:23,053 Speaker 2: more wealthy.

But I do think having access to 1188 00:57:58,253 --> 00:57:59,933 Speaker 18: a larger market like that, and I heard you guys 1189 00:57:59,973 --> 00:58:02,853 Speaker 18: talking about the numbers now, it would give us more 1190 00:58:02,893 --> 00:58:05,053 Speaker 18: options because I mean, at the moment with the CEA 1191 00:58:05,613 --> 00:58:09,933 Speaker 18: in the bricks conversation, we've stuck with the opposing policies. 1192 00:58:09,973 --> 00:58:11,933 Speaker 18: On the one hand, you've got defense and foreign policy 1193 00:58:12,053 --> 00:58:15,173 Speaker 18: versus economic policy, you know, and that's a bit of 1194 00:58:15,213 --> 00:58:17,973 Speaker 18: a cash twenty too. We're playing policy twister at the moment, 1195 00:58:18,053 --> 00:58:20,693 Speaker 18: trying to appease all sides. And that's just with China. 1196 00:58:21,173 --> 00:58:23,213 Speaker 18: And on the other hand, you've got all of our 1197 00:58:23,253 --> 00:58:26,653 Speaker 18: other ex World War two allies with the strength of 1198 00:58:26,773 --> 00:58:30,493 Speaker 18: spine to be able to condemn certain foreign policy decisions 1199 00:58:30,573 --> 00:58:33,853 Speaker 18: from the orangeineerer on the other side of the ocean. 1200 00:58:34,573 --> 00:58:37,853 Speaker 18: And we're too afraid, purely because we had sixteen point 1201 00:58:37,933 --> 00:58:40,893 Speaker 18: four billion dollars worth of exports of goods and services 1202 00:58:40,933 --> 00:58:43,213 Speaker 18: in twenty twenty four to the US, and we did 1203 00:58:43,293 --> 00:58:47,093 Speaker 18: more than twenty one with China. So if we can 1204 00:58:47,173 --> 00:58:49,533 Speaker 18: open up another market, it might give us the stones 1205 00:58:49,573 --> 00:58:51,013 Speaker 18: we need to be able to say no, bra you 1206 00:58:51,053 --> 00:58:53,933 Speaker 18: can't do that. When it comes to Ukraine or when 1207 00:58:53,973 --> 00:58:55,933 Speaker 18: it comes to tariffs and things like that, we might 1208 00:58:55,973 --> 00:58:58,333 Speaker 18: not care as much.

What are the challenges and what 1288 01:02:57,573 --> 01:03:01,773 Speaker 2: can we sell them and that wants can we give 1289 01:03:01,813 --> 01:03:06,213 Speaker 2: them sell them because currently we're running a deficit with them. 1290 01:03:06,413 --> 01:03:09,093 Speaker 2: In the December twenty two, twenty four court in New 1291 01:03:09,133 --> 01:03:12,693 Speaker 2: Zealand exported three hundred and eighty three million dollars of 1292 01:03:12,813 --> 01:03:17,533 Speaker 2: total goods and services imported four hundred and thirty two 1293 01:03:18,373 --> 01:03:19,253 Speaker 2: So there you go. 1294 01:03:19,733 --> 01:03:22,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, And as we mentioned a little bit earlier, we've 1295 01:03:22,333 --> 01:03:25,893 Speaker 3: given the Free Trade Agreement a few cranks the first 1296 01:03:25,933 --> 01:03:29,173 Speaker 3: and twenty ten and then picked up negotiations in twenty fifteen. 1297 01:03:29,373 --> 01:03:32,773 Speaker 3: It appears dairy was the FICIALOK in those negotiations, so 1298 01:03:32,853 --> 01:03:35,093 Speaker 3: they didn't progress. But Christopher Luxen's going to give it 1299 01:03:35,093 --> 01:03:35,693 Speaker 3: another crack. 1300 01:03:36,013 --> 01:03:37,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, they make a hell of a lot of dairy. Yeah, 1301 01:03:37,933 --> 01:03:39,813 Speaker 2: there's a lot of little farmers there that would not 1302 01:03:39,853 --> 01:03:42,333 Speaker 2: be happy if we just flooded their market with our 1303 01:03:42,413 --> 01:03:46,453 Speaker 2: superior quality dairy.

And someone who's best 1327 01:04:47,973 --> 01:04:49,453 Speaker 2: friends with John Belus, She was like, this book is 1328 01:04:49,453 --> 01:04:52,533 Speaker 2: absolutely rubbish and that makes you question absolutely everything he does. 1329 01:04:52,613 --> 01:04:54,813 Speaker 2: And you notice that, don't you. When something comes into 1330 01:04:54,893 --> 01:04:57,653 Speaker 2: your sphere of knowledge, you often notice that what you're 1331 01:04:57,693 --> 01:05:00,373 Speaker 2: hearing is rubbish and then you go, well, is everything 1332 01:05:00,373 --> 01:05:03,533 Speaker 2: I'm hearing rubbish because my sphere of knowledge is very narrow? 1333 01:05:03,773 --> 01:05:04,013 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1334 01:05:04,133 --> 01:05:05,693 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you've got to be able to trust 1335 01:05:05,773 --> 01:05:09,533 Speaker 3: that the sources are close to the X person they're 1336 01:05:09,573 --> 01:05:11,813 Speaker 3: riding about. Was a deep throat that was there, that 1337 01:05:11,933 --> 01:05:13,853 Speaker 3: was the name? Was it controversial? 1338 01:05:14,093 --> 01:05:17,973 Speaker 2: Question everything? Nanayamahuta say no more. Previous foreign minister was hopeless. 1339 01:05:18,333 --> 01:05:20,373 Speaker 2: I remember once some Peter's knocking her for not getting 1340 01:05:20,413 --> 01:05:23,453 Speaker 2: out and about and getting some more trade deals. Yeah, 1341 01:05:23,533 --> 01:05:25,853 Speaker 2: she didn't seem to travel as much as Winnie does. 1342 01:05:26,133 --> 01:05:31,413 Speaker 3: Yep, guys, hopefully Christopher Luxen takes Bishop and Willis with 1343 01:05:31,613 --> 01:05:35,933 Speaker 3: him and don't come back. They might find a job 1344 01:05:36,013 --> 01:05:39,133 Speaker 3: over there that wasn't very happy with. 1345 01:05:39,333 --> 01:05:41,733 Speaker 2: So you want us to export Bishop and Willis. You know, 1346 01:05:41,773 --> 01:05:43,213 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if that it's going to offset this 1347 01:05:43,853 --> 01:05:46,213 Speaker 2: current deficit of three hundred and eighty three million to 1348 01:05:46,253 --> 01:05:48,573 Speaker 2: four hundred and thirty two million in the twenty twenty 1349 01:05:48,653 --> 01:05:50,333 Speaker 2: four December quarter. 1350 01:05:50,573 --> 01:05:52,933 Speaker 3: How much do you get for a finance minister in India? 1351 01:05:53,133 --> 01:05:55,893 Speaker 2: India have a disgusting reputation for pollution, not CO two 1352 01:05:56,053 --> 01:05:59,813 Speaker 2: rubbish trashing rivers, and China will spend billions at the 1353 01:05:59,893 --> 01:06:02,653 Speaker 2: Paris Climb and the Cord Well, they keep dumping in rivers. 1354 01:06:02,733 --> 01:06:05,613 Speaker 2: But we agreed so greedy that we want the money. 1355 01:06:05,653 --> 01:06:08,013 Speaker 2: That is crazy. Yeah, what we like to do is 1356 01:06:08,493 --> 01:06:11,613 Speaker 2: make rules to make it difficult for ourselves here at Greenwise, 1357 01:06:11,693 --> 01:06:15,053 Speaker 2: and then we just outsauce all the CO two to 1358 01:06:15,173 --> 01:06:18,133 Speaker 2: other countries and then we'll import that stuff to New 1359 01:06:18,213 --> 01:06:20,693 Speaker 2: Zealand making no difference, then pat ourselves on the back. 1360 01:06:20,733 --> 01:06:22,493 Speaker 2: That's that's the current system that we're running here. 1361 01:06:22,573 --> 01:06:24,413 Speaker 3: And we've got a free trade agreement with China. So 1362 01:06:24,453 --> 01:06:26,773 Speaker 3: if you want to talk about environmental ethics, we are 1363 01:06:26,813 --> 01:06:29,573 Speaker 3: still doing a heck of a lot of trade with China. 1364 01:06:30,573 --> 01:06:32,453 Speaker 3: Keep those teaks coming through. On nine two, niney two. 1365 01:06:32,613 --> 01:06:34,893 Speaker 2: A bottle of Cloudy Bay is around one hundred and 1366 01:06:35,053 --> 01:06:37,373 Speaker 2: sixty dollars in a hotel. There is also a rule 1367 01:06:37,413 --> 01:06:39,893 Speaker 2: of it it can be made in India, then you 1368 01:06:40,013 --> 01:06:43,573 Speaker 2: have to buy local. Why may sales have been stopped 1369 01:06:43,653 --> 01:06:46,733 Speaker 2: being a manufacturer, Rod, I read that text. I think 1370 01:06:46,733 --> 01:06:48,613 Speaker 2: I get what he's trying to say there. But yeah, 1371 01:06:48,693 --> 01:06:50,493 Speaker 2: so there's there's certain rules about if you can buy 1372 01:06:50,533 --> 01:06:54,373 Speaker 2: it in India, then then you should bite overseas stuff 1373 01:06:54,413 --> 01:07:00,413 Speaker 2: that's imported. Vickim welcome to the show. Yeah, hi, hi, Hey, 1374 01:07:00,933 --> 01:07:02,413 Speaker 2: your thoughts on doing business with India? 1375 01:07:04,373 --> 01:07:06,933 Speaker 12: Yeah, plus all. I think, yes, we should be doing 1376 01:07:07,013 --> 01:07:12,053 Speaker 12: business with one point five BILLI large consumer market. But 1377 01:07:12,173 --> 01:07:14,373 Speaker 12: what are we going to do about it? How are 1378 01:07:14,413 --> 01:07:18,133 Speaker 12: you going to approach it? A few months ago I 1379 01:07:18,253 --> 01:07:21,373 Speaker 12: heard on your radio there was a person who had 1380 01:07:21,413 --> 01:07:23,813 Speaker 12: come and was the first part of the panel in 1381 01:07:23,933 --> 01:07:27,013 Speaker 12: Luckson's government, I don't remember the name, was talking about 1382 01:07:27,093 --> 01:07:31,133 Speaker 12: exporting beef to India. Yep, right, And discussion went on 1383 01:07:31,413 --> 01:07:36,053 Speaker 12: about beef. That's an absolute no, no, no, you can't. 1384 01:07:36,493 --> 01:07:40,933 Speaker 12: People don't eat beefy. They've banned beef in India, so 1385 01:07:41,413 --> 01:07:44,293 Speaker 12: I believe the panel shouldn't be going there and talking 1386 01:07:44,333 --> 01:07:48,653 Speaker 12: about selling beef in India. Now, what we have terms 1387 01:07:48,693 --> 01:07:52,573 Speaker 12: of opportunity is is our lamb our. Lamb is fantastic. 1388 01:07:52,653 --> 01:07:55,813 Speaker 12: Wherever you serve lamb and people come overseas at home, 1389 01:07:56,213 --> 01:07:59,653 Speaker 12: they just love it, right, And that's the opportunity there. 1390 01:07:59,973 --> 01:08:00,253 Speaker 3: I think. 1391 01:08:00,333 --> 01:08:03,893 Speaker 12: Secondly, there's a lot of disruption happening with mister Trump 1392 01:08:04,173 --> 01:08:07,253 Speaker 12: going about throwing tarists at everyone, so everyone is looking 1393 01:08:07,293 --> 01:08:10,293 Speaker 12: at alternate marks, right. A lot of other countries will 1394 01:08:10,293 --> 01:08:12,893 Speaker 12: look at India. India will start looking at other countries 1395 01:08:12,973 --> 01:08:16,093 Speaker 12: what they get soce from. So that's another opportunity for 1396 01:08:16,253 --> 01:08:17,612 Speaker 12: us as a country to go there. 1397 01:08:17,893 --> 01:08:19,813 Speaker 2: I say a lot of lamb production as too much 1398 01:08:19,893 --> 01:08:21,333 Speaker 2: lamb production in India. 1399 01:08:22,492 --> 01:08:26,612 Speaker 12: The thing is, I left India in nineteen ninety nine, right, 1400 01:08:26,973 --> 01:08:29,333 Speaker 12: I'm here since two thousand and five thousand in the 1401 01:08:29,412 --> 01:08:32,412 Speaker 12: Middle East. If you look at that region, Middle East 1402 01:08:32,692 --> 01:08:35,973 Speaker 12: and including India, that's the places I've been. Goat is 1403 01:08:36,133 --> 01:08:42,093 Speaker 12: very popular, right, I've been eating goat far right through 1404 01:08:42,133 --> 01:08:45,213 Speaker 12: my childhood and to my you know, right up to 1405 01:08:45,652 --> 01:08:48,572 Speaker 12: nineteen ninety nine. But when I continue to see this, 1406 01:08:49,293 --> 01:08:52,452 Speaker 12: I said, I went to shops buy coat and never 1407 01:08:52,492 --> 01:08:55,492 Speaker 12: bought lambs. And then someone said, why don't you try 1408 01:08:55,532 --> 01:08:57,852 Speaker 12: the lamb? After that, I've never gone to goat. I 1409 01:08:57,933 --> 01:09:02,412 Speaker 12: only eat these lab right, So if you don't, if 1410 01:09:02,492 --> 01:09:05,093 Speaker 12: you don't know, you don't know right unless you eat it. 1411 01:09:05,213 --> 01:09:07,412 Speaker 12: So what I'm trying to say is that beef is 1412 01:09:07,452 --> 01:09:10,333 Speaker 12: a known or please please please make sure you go 1413 01:09:10,492 --> 01:09:14,893 Speaker 12: with the right people with the right approach. People is 1414 01:09:14,933 --> 01:09:17,572 Speaker 12: a non of and their alternate is a fantastic thing 1415 01:09:17,652 --> 01:09:20,973 Speaker 12: is the lamb. I'll give a classic example. I was 1416 01:09:21,053 --> 01:09:24,452 Speaker 12: there probably ten years ago, and I traveled after ten years, 1417 01:09:25,013 --> 01:09:29,333 Speaker 12: India's buying power in terms of the people has phenomenally 1418 01:09:29,973 --> 01:09:32,532 Speaker 12: gone high. You only see four wheek cars on the 1419 01:09:32,652 --> 01:09:34,812 Speaker 12: road and was on the day where you know, a 1420 01:09:34,893 --> 01:09:39,452 Speaker 12: motorbike was an luxury for me when I was in college, right, 1421 01:09:39,893 --> 01:09:42,852 Speaker 12: but now the college guys go to go on castle. 1422 01:09:43,133 --> 01:09:45,933 Speaker 12: So so in terms of buying power, the population had 1423 01:09:45,973 --> 01:09:50,532 Speaker 12: grown up then against there's nothing nothing called as special cities. 1424 01:09:51,093 --> 01:09:53,652 Speaker 12: Like someone mentioned previously that you know we have offeren 1425 01:09:53,692 --> 01:09:54,692 Speaker 12: christ at Wellington. 1426 01:09:55,093 --> 01:09:55,133 Speaker 5: No. 1427 01:09:55,452 --> 01:09:58,652 Speaker 12: One point five point point five billion people. We have 1428 01:09:58,893 --> 01:10:02,972 Speaker 12: cities who have bigger potential. I studied, I'm from Mumbai. 1429 01:10:03,372 --> 01:10:05,452 Speaker 12: I studied in a city called Poona, which is as 1430 01:10:05,532 --> 01:10:11,173 Speaker 12: far as Hamilton, and that's around probably probably two million people. 1431 01:10:12,253 --> 01:10:13,293 Speaker 2: Did you say about three million. 1432 01:10:13,893 --> 01:10:16,093 Speaker 12: I'm just so yeah, twenty to fifty. I'm just an 1433 01:10:16,173 --> 01:10:20,253 Speaker 12: average Yeah, but that that that city is has the 1434 01:10:20,333 --> 01:10:24,012 Speaker 12: potential to do business as good as Mumbai. Mumbai obviously 1435 01:10:24,173 --> 01:10:26,692 Speaker 12: is a capital, commercial capital of the world. So I think, 1436 01:10:26,772 --> 01:10:30,533 Speaker 12: I think, I think there is opportunities with the disruptions 1437 01:10:30,572 --> 01:10:34,853 Speaker 12: that's taking place thanks to Trump, and there are opportunities 1438 01:10:34,893 --> 01:10:37,612 Speaker 12: for beef. I'll give you a classic example for this 1439 01:10:37,812 --> 01:10:40,253 Speaker 12: is twenty twelve years ago when I went in. I 1440 01:10:40,293 --> 01:10:42,732 Speaker 12: went in last year to Indian and I was surprised. 1441 01:10:43,173 --> 01:10:47,173 Speaker 12: My kids and wife had gone after eighteen years and 1442 01:10:47,253 --> 01:10:49,652 Speaker 12: they were shocked. You know, the kind of food yo 1443 01:10:49,853 --> 01:10:52,693 Speaker 12: is available, the kind of wine, the kind of alcohol. 1444 01:10:53,412 --> 01:10:57,093 Speaker 12: I was even talking to one of one of our 1445 01:10:57,652 --> 01:11:03,133 Speaker 12: manufacturers of vodka in in in what's the place in 1446 01:11:03,293 --> 01:11:05,652 Speaker 12: wan Aca was not the name of k And they 1447 01:11:05,692 --> 01:11:08,053 Speaker 12: were trying to Yeah, they were trying to export, trying 1448 01:11:08,093 --> 01:11:11,253 Speaker 12: to sport into the European country. I gave them figures 1449 01:11:11,293 --> 01:11:14,412 Speaker 12: at that point of time, which would double the figures 1450 01:11:14,572 --> 01:11:19,532 Speaker 12: or what consumption is there of that alcohol in India? Right, 1451 01:11:19,853 --> 01:11:22,253 Speaker 12: so if you're talking of ten million, it would be 1452 01:11:22,293 --> 01:11:26,012 Speaker 12: twenty million. Yeah. People having water, Yeah, and but Vorka 1453 01:11:26,253 --> 01:11:31,133 Speaker 12: it is drunk. Is the younger generations are not the 1454 01:11:31,213 --> 01:11:37,893 Speaker 12: whisky drinkers. The younger generation is water, gins, mocktails, cocktails, 1455 01:11:37,973 --> 01:11:39,972 Speaker 12: you know those kind of stuff we've gone to pass 1456 01:11:40,213 --> 01:11:43,892 Speaker 12: when we went and that's that's more popular. So there's 1457 01:11:43,893 --> 01:11:48,932 Speaker 12: a tremendous opportunity the the I feel just that there 1458 01:11:49,013 --> 01:11:51,692 Speaker 12: has to be a panel who understands India better yea, 1459 01:11:51,973 --> 01:11:56,732 Speaker 12: rather than who's probably saw India on TV or saw 1460 01:11:56,812 --> 01:12:00,213 Speaker 12: India or read about India. Is not what should be 1461 01:12:00,333 --> 01:12:03,093 Speaker 12: on that panel, like you. Ten years ago, when I 1462 01:12:03,253 --> 01:12:05,612 Speaker 12: was in India, I went to a fruit seller and 1463 01:12:05,692 --> 01:12:07,652 Speaker 12: you know, fruit seller normally is on the street on 1464 01:12:07,732 --> 01:12:11,093 Speaker 12: his start selling fruit. I quickly wanted to buy fruit. 1465 01:12:11,173 --> 01:12:13,293 Speaker 12: And I saw the kiv fruit and I saw the 1466 01:12:13,452 --> 01:12:16,452 Speaker 12: apple right, and I knew they were for New Zealand 1467 01:12:16,452 --> 01:12:20,412 Speaker 12: apples going from music, So I asked him and I said, yeah, sorry, 1468 01:12:20,452 --> 01:12:22,892 Speaker 12: I was talking an emty. I asked him what fruit 1469 01:12:23,013 --> 01:12:26,892 Speaker 12: is this and he said, this is New Zealand TV fruit. 1470 01:12:27,053 --> 01:12:30,492 Speaker 12: Now he's illiterate. He's on the street selling fruit and 1471 01:12:30,853 --> 01:12:33,772 Speaker 12: he said, I said what it is? What what's TV fruit? 1472 01:12:34,013 --> 01:12:38,933 Speaker 12: He said, this is top quality, fantastic fruit. Right, that 1473 01:12:39,372 --> 01:12:41,973 Speaker 12: was his And then asked him of the apple. He 1474 01:12:42,093 --> 01:12:44,812 Speaker 12: had this massive pyramid and I said, what are the 1475 01:12:44,853 --> 01:12:47,293 Speaker 12: apples on top? I didn't know what were there, and 1476 01:12:47,372 --> 01:12:50,333 Speaker 12: I think I've only kept the New Zealand apples up there. Again. 1477 01:12:50,973 --> 01:12:55,532 Speaker 12: There you got quality expensive. 1478 01:12:55,133 --> 01:12:57,532 Speaker 3: There you go, you go, give me it is. It's 1479 01:12:57,572 --> 01:12:59,732 Speaker 3: there's a market there for premium products. So if they 1480 01:12:59,772 --> 01:13:02,012 Speaker 3: can get some sort of free trade deal across the line. 1481 01:13:02,053 --> 01:13:04,333 Speaker 3: You know, he's quite right. They could drone as spirits 1482 01:13:04,412 --> 01:13:07,532 Speaker 3: that if they could tap into that Indian market. There 1483 01:13:07,772 --> 01:13:10,772 Speaker 3: is gold us for our business like a kadrona distillery. 1484 01:13:10,933 --> 01:13:16,732 Speaker 2: Integrity, quality, good reputation.

You 1494 01:13:45,173 --> 01:13:47,213 Speaker 20: brought me inside. I was working out in the sun, 1495 01:13:47,333 --> 01:13:48,852 Speaker 20: so it's nice to the end of shade. 1496 01:13:49,492 --> 01:13:50,372 Speaker 3: Good to chat with you. 1497 01:13:51,213 --> 01:13:55,612 Speaker 20: You go about exporting to India, we automatically, of course, 1498 01:13:55,692 --> 01:13:59,053 Speaker 20: think of Fronterra and milk products. But my understanding is 1499 01:13:59,213 --> 01:14:02,532 Speaker 20: that India has the biggest dairy industry in the world. 1500 01:14:02,973 --> 01:14:04,812 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not going to happen with their dairy. 1501 01:14:05,372 --> 01:14:10,692 Speaker 20: And what's more, they're pretty advanced too, because I was 1502 01:14:11,093 --> 01:14:14,933 Speaker 20: still at high school in the nineteen sixties when Truscott, 1503 01:14:15,013 --> 01:14:19,732 Speaker 20: Stainless Steel and Hamilton were exporting, well certainly negotiating to 1504 01:14:20,013 --> 01:14:24,333 Speaker 20: export railway wagons of about thirty thousand liter capacity in 1505 01:14:24,452 --> 01:14:30,213 Speaker 20: stainless steel to India for cutting milk. So that's that's 1506 01:14:30,253 --> 01:14:35,253 Speaker 20: sixty years ago. Yeah, right, So they don't need our milk. 1507 01:14:35,772 --> 01:14:40,692 Speaker 2: They don't want to export a huge would be huge problem. Yeah, 1508 01:14:40,732 --> 01:14:42,452 Speaker 2: they consume it all all and. 1509 01:14:42,492 --> 01:14:45,372 Speaker 20: I doubt very much whether they need our technology either, 1510 01:14:45,492 --> 01:14:47,652 Speaker 20: because they've got one point five billion people. 1511 01:14:47,973 --> 01:14:50,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you don't think a free trade dealer is 1512 01:14:50,692 --> 01:14:52,012 Speaker 3: doable here, Murray? Is that what you're saying? 1513 01:14:52,013 --> 01:14:54,572 Speaker 20: Oh, yes, I think it is doable there. We can't 1514 01:14:54,652 --> 01:14:56,972 Speaker 20: we can't do it. We can't build it around around 1515 01:14:57,372 --> 01:15:01,652 Speaker 20: dairy products fair enough to all sorts of things. 1516 01:15:01,612 --> 01:15:05,012 Speaker 2: Which is unfortunate, but a reality. You know, a dairy 1517 01:15:05,093 --> 01:15:08,932 Speaker 2: is so good and we're so good and so making 1518 01:15:08,973 --> 01:15:11,692 Speaker 2: it that no one wants us flooding our superior quality 1519 01:15:11,812 --> 01:15:12,812 Speaker 2: product into their market. 1520 01:15:13,053 --> 01:15:16,652 Speaker 20: Yep, Yeah, I'm what I'm referring to, of course, is 1521 01:15:16,732 --> 01:15:21,732 Speaker 20: stainless still revolutionized dairy industry in New Zealand because prior 1522 01:15:21,812 --> 01:15:25,532 Speaker 20: to the late fifties early sixties, stainless steel was a product, 1523 01:15:25,572 --> 01:15:27,933 Speaker 20: but they couldn't weld it. They they couldn't fabricate it. 1524 01:15:28,013 --> 01:15:31,253 Speaker 20: But somewhere along the line somebody invented the way to 1525 01:15:31,333 --> 01:15:35,333 Speaker 20: weld stainless steel. And Trustcott's was a business in Hamilton. 1526 01:15:35,412 --> 01:15:37,572 Speaker 20: They were from Australia. They came from Melbourne, I think, 1527 01:15:38,412 --> 01:15:42,293 Speaker 20: and they built all the milk tankers that you see 1528 01:15:42,333 --> 01:15:44,892 Speaker 20: today in New Zealand, except they were brought out by 1529 01:15:45,053 --> 01:15:49,253 Speaker 20: NDA National theairy so India National Dairy Association. 1530 01:15:49,452 --> 01:15:53,092 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, thank god they sorted that out absolutely as gosh, 1531 01:15:53,173 --> 01:15:56,973 Speaker 2: do we need an efficient and successful dairy industry for 1532 01:15:57,053 --> 01:15:57,652 Speaker 2: our economy? 1533 01:15:58,572 --> 01:16:01,772 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely right.

Yeah, 1607 01:19:34,093 --> 01:19:36,013 Speaker 2: but mate, you're putting in the wrong numbers. India does 1608 01:19:36,053 --> 01:19:37,612 Speaker 2: not have a population of four billion. No, you've got 1609 01:19:37,612 --> 01:19:39,692 Speaker 2: a population of one point four billion. Yeah, all you've 1610 01:19:39,692 --> 01:19:41,412 Speaker 2: got to do you don't even need a calculate it 1611 01:19:41,492 --> 01:19:44,933 Speaker 2: for this, tyler. Okay, we just remove, just remove the 1612 01:19:45,053 --> 01:19:47,612 Speaker 2: zeros that you don't need. So you remove six zeros 1613 01:19:47,612 --> 01:19:49,372 Speaker 2: from both and then it becomes one hundred and forty 1614 01:19:49,372 --> 01:19:51,532 Speaker 2: divided by five and then you get twenty. 1615 01:19:51,412 --> 01:19:55,412 Speaker 3: Eight how many how many zeros in a billion? 1616 01:19:55,532 --> 01:19:57,652 Speaker 2: You don't really need to know that. You need to 1617 01:19:57,732 --> 01:20:00,972 Speaker 2: know that there's six and a million. Okay, so there's 1618 01:20:01,093 --> 01:20:02,772 Speaker 2: six zeros and the end of five million. So you 1619 01:20:02,933 --> 01:20:04,133 Speaker 2: just to make it easier because you don't want to 1620 01:20:04,173 --> 01:20:06,293 Speaker 2: go lower than the five mate, right, because that would 1621 01:20:06,293 --> 01:20:09,133 Speaker 2: be ridiculous. There, make yourself more comfortable, more complicated, So 1622 01:20:09,173 --> 01:20:11,492 Speaker 2: you take all the zeros off the don't need to 1623 01:20:11,532 --> 01:20:12,372 Speaker 2: do a math listen here do. 1624 01:20:12,412 --> 01:20:14,412 Speaker 3: I Well, instead of doing that, I just googled one 1625 01:20:14,452 --> 01:20:17,452 Speaker 3: point four billion divided by five million in those words, 1626 01:20:17,492 --> 01:20:19,532 Speaker 3: and it came back with two hundred and eighty. So well, 1627 01:20:19,572 --> 01:20:21,652 Speaker 3: there we go. We got technology there. Yeah, I can 1628 01:20:21,692 --> 01:20:23,612 Speaker 3: say Google helped in the ends. I don't need to 1629 01:20:23,692 --> 01:20:26,812 Speaker 3: remove any zeros. I just googled it. Right. Anyway, we've got. 1630 01:20:26,732 --> 01:20:29,532 Speaker 2: A scintillating maths argument going on here on Matt and 1631 01:20:29,532 --> 01:20:30,212 Speaker 2: Tyler afternoon. 1632 01:20:30,412 --> 01:20:32,412 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you got the maths right, so there we go. 1633 01:20:32,772 --> 01:20:33,532 Speaker 3: But there wonder bid. 1634 01:20:33,732 --> 01:20:35,772 Speaker 2: Anyway, let's move on from it. We all agree they've 1635 01:20:35,772 --> 01:20:38,293 Speaker 2: got roughly two hundred and eighty times our population. Yeah, 1636 01:20:38,412 --> 01:20:42,333 Speaker 2: which is quite amazing. That we sometimes beat them in 1637 01:20:42,412 --> 01:20:45,532 Speaker 2: cricket like the World Test Championship. But you boys, but 1638 01:20:46,532 --> 01:20:48,772 Speaker 2: I mean obviously lost in the champions trophy. But that 1639 01:20:48,853 --> 01:20:50,492 Speaker 2: one doesn't matter. It was only by six balls. 1640 01:20:50,572 --> 01:20:53,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly right. Let's have a chat about this chicking 1641 01:20:53,372 --> 01:20:56,253 Speaker 3: and on family members. It is on the back of 1642 01:20:56,372 --> 01:21:00,252 Speaker 3: what we now know about the death of Gene Hackman 1643 01:21:00,732 --> 01:21:03,852 Speaker 3: very heartbreaking. We know he died of heart disease with 1644 01:21:03,973 --> 01:21:10,293 Speaker 3: complications from Alzheimer's disease, and he after his wife passed 1645 01:21:10,333 --> 01:21:13,972 Speaker 3: away seven days before he passed away from a rere 1646 01:21:13,973 --> 01:21:14,532 Speaker 3: blood disease. 1647 01:21:14,572 --> 01:21:19,252 Speaker 2: So that's horrible. So she, I assume was his primary 1648 01:21:19,293 --> 01:21:22,133 Speaker 2: caregiver and when she went down, he was in a 1649 01:21:22,173 --> 01:21:26,372 Speaker 2: lot of trouble. So you think about seven days in 1650 01:21:26,492 --> 01:21:28,852 Speaker 2: a terrible situation, not being able to look after yourself, 1651 01:21:29,333 --> 01:21:30,973 Speaker 2: you know, I don't, I don't know, we don't know 1652 01:21:31,013 --> 01:21:33,892 Speaker 2: the details yet, but on the ground, not being able 1653 01:21:33,933 --> 01:21:35,492 Speaker 2: to get what you need, not being able to get 1654 01:21:35,572 --> 01:21:38,892 Speaker 2: up a bunch of scenarios you can imagine and only 1655 01:21:39,372 --> 01:21:41,412 Speaker 2: just imagine being Gene Hackman's daughter. 1656 01:21:41,772 --> 01:21:43,812 Speaker 3: Oh terrible, terrible. 1657 01:21:43,933 --> 01:21:47,492 Speaker 2: And so she's thinking, why didn't I check in with 1658 01:21:47,652 --> 01:21:51,612 Speaker 2: him for that whole week? I mean, he's got he's 1659 01:21:51,652 --> 01:21:56,133 Speaker 2: got he's got Christopher, Elizabeth and Leslie. But I think 1660 01:21:56,253 --> 01:21:58,372 Speaker 2: Lesbie Elizabeth Heckman was the first person to come out 1661 01:21:58,412 --> 01:22:01,133 Speaker 2: to the press about things. But they'll be going, why 1662 01:22:01,173 --> 01:22:04,333 Speaker 2: didn't I why didn't I just ring? You know in 1663 01:22:04,412 --> 01:22:05,213 Speaker 2: that seven days? 1664 01:22:05,452 --> 01:22:09,293 Speaker 3: Absolutely devastating, But you know, you can't know what his 1665 01:22:09,452 --> 01:22:12,412 Speaker 3: children were thinking, but perhaps they were thinking that his 1666 01:22:12,572 --> 01:22:14,892 Speaker 3: wife is a lot younger and it is a rare 1667 01:22:15,732 --> 01:22:18,892 Speaker 3: rodent born disease that she got in the end hunter virus, 1668 01:22:19,333 --> 01:22:22,893 Speaker 3: incredibly rare that they would have thinking Dad's got Alzheimer's. 1669 01:22:23,173 --> 01:22:27,452 Speaker 3: He needs twenty four hour care and his wife is 1670 01:22:27,532 --> 01:22:29,253 Speaker 3: there looking after him. So all is okay? 1671 01:22:29,492 --> 01:22:31,253 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean, and as kids are like sixty 1672 01:22:31,253 --> 01:22:34,052 Speaker 2: five years old and such. But I guess my point 1673 01:22:34,173 --> 01:22:37,532 Speaker 2: is that maybe they don't have any reason to feel 1674 01:22:37,572 --> 01:22:41,892 Speaker 2: bad themselves, because you know, seven days isn't that long 1675 01:22:41,933 --> 01:22:44,133 Speaker 2: a time not to get in contact with someone, right, Yeah, 1676 01:22:44,372 --> 01:22:47,532 Speaker 2: but I bet they do. I bet they do feel bad? 1677 01:22:47,612 --> 01:22:49,333 Speaker 3: Oh here, yeah? Could you're not? 1678 01:22:49,612 --> 01:22:52,412 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you know, if a parent goes down and 1679 01:22:52,732 --> 01:22:54,852 Speaker 2: you know, maybe you thought about wringing them, or you didn't, 1680 01:22:56,013 --> 01:22:57,213 Speaker 2: you know, because he could have rung and there was 1681 01:22:57,253 --> 01:22:59,612 Speaker 2: no answer, then you think you could have found someone 1682 01:22:59,652 --> 01:23:02,372 Speaker 2: to go around or whatever the situation is. But really 1683 01:23:02,412 --> 01:23:04,173 Speaker 2: what we want to talk about is checking in on 1684 01:23:04,532 --> 01:23:08,532 Speaker 2: your grandparents and your parents if they're getting older. Is 1685 01:23:08,572 --> 01:23:10,852 Speaker 2: that your obligation? And how often should you do it? 1686 01:23:11,452 --> 01:23:15,732 Speaker 2: You know, because especially if they're living on their own, 1687 01:23:16,772 --> 01:23:19,732 Speaker 2: how often you should do it my dad who's in 1688 01:23:19,853 --> 01:23:24,532 Speaker 2: his early eighties. He has the system on him, so 1689 01:23:24,612 --> 01:23:26,253 Speaker 2: if he goes down, it wrings everyone. 1690 01:23:27,013 --> 01:23:28,732 Speaker 3: Oh like a Saint John type. 1691 01:23:29,173 --> 01:23:32,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a device. It starts texts everyone in 1692 01:23:32,333 --> 01:23:34,612 Speaker 2: the family and then it starts ringing people in order 1693 01:23:35,013 --> 01:23:38,732 Speaker 2: of who's closest to him, not emotionally but actually physically 1694 01:23:38,772 --> 01:23:40,973 Speaker 2: closest to him. And you know, I'm down the list 1695 01:23:41,013 --> 01:23:42,893 Speaker 2: because I live in Auckland. He lives in Dunedin. But 1696 01:23:43,053 --> 01:23:45,572 Speaker 2: you know, we'll get around to seven. But sometimes I 1697 01:23:45,652 --> 01:23:48,133 Speaker 2: wake up and there'll be a text going emergency and 1698 01:23:48,213 --> 01:23:50,213 Speaker 2: then you ring up and he goes, oh, yeah, sorry, 1699 01:23:50,333 --> 01:23:52,052 Speaker 2: I hugged someone at a party. 1700 01:23:53,732 --> 01:23:56,213 Speaker 3: That's frightening. Yeah, so is that when if he falls over, 1701 01:23:56,253 --> 01:23:58,053 Speaker 3: if he has a bad fall and he can't get 1702 01:23:58,093 --> 01:24:01,293 Speaker 3: to the phone, at least this will trigger that response. 1703 01:24:01,333 --> 01:24:03,772 Speaker 3: How does it work? So obviously it can detect the fall, 1704 01:24:04,532 --> 01:24:06,772 Speaker 3: and then it just starts running through the numbers until 1705 01:24:06,812 --> 01:24:07,372 Speaker 3: somebody else. 1706 01:24:07,333 --> 01:24:09,852 Speaker 2: Is yeah, that's right. I think I'm about fifth or 1707 01:24:09,973 --> 01:24:12,532 Speaker 2: sixth on the list. But it sends everyone to text 1708 01:24:12,572 --> 01:24:14,772 Speaker 2: message and so you know, off and I'll ring back. 1709 01:24:14,772 --> 01:24:16,133 Speaker 2: You won't as I ring my sister and they go 1710 01:24:16,173 --> 01:24:18,692 Speaker 2: oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's fine. But that's some 1711 01:24:18,933 --> 01:24:23,293 Speaker 2: peace of mind you but you know it's not cheap 1712 01:24:23,333 --> 01:24:24,412 Speaker 2: that whole service. 1713 01:24:24,572 --> 01:24:27,492 Speaker 3: No, no, I'll just thinking back to my grandparents because 1714 01:24:27,492 --> 01:24:29,972 Speaker 3: we were not too far away from them in christ Church, 1715 01:24:30,093 --> 01:24:33,333 Speaker 3: same suburb, and Mum was and Nelson, and that was 1716 01:24:33,372 --> 01:24:35,293 Speaker 3: when they were starting to get a bit older and 1717 01:24:35,492 --> 01:24:37,572 Speaker 3: Nana was starting to see the effects a little bit 1718 01:24:37,692 --> 01:24:41,173 Speaker 3: of dementia, and so I was kind of the point 1719 01:24:41,173 --> 01:24:43,532 Speaker 3: of call, along with Mum's sister, my Auntie, who was 1720 01:24:43,572 --> 01:24:45,812 Speaker 3: pretty close by, as well my cousin, so there was 1721 01:24:45,853 --> 01:24:49,372 Speaker 3: a good team of us.

But you know, you know something that really 1945 01:34:46,173 --> 01:34:49,133 Speaker 2: affected me. It was in August twenty twenty three. This 1946 01:34:49,293 --> 01:34:52,452 Speaker 2: was a headline in the Ittarga Daily Times reporting about 1947 01:34:52,452 --> 01:34:55,452 Speaker 2: the sorry state of the elderly in Dunedin. In one 1948 01:34:55,572 --> 01:34:59,892 Speaker 2: boarding house, tenants talked of elderly resident's body discovered days 1949 01:34:59,973 --> 01:35:03,692 Speaker 2: after their death, dissolved into their mattress. Oh man, that's 1950 01:35:04,093 --> 01:35:06,052 Speaker 2: abandoned in Dunedan was the name of the article. 1951 01:35:06,692 --> 01:35:09,372 Speaker 3: I mean, that is horrendous, isn't it. 1952 01:35:09,612 --> 01:35:11,812 Speaker 2: So no one checked on that person until they dissolved 1953 01:35:11,853 --> 01:35:15,452 Speaker 2: into the Mattress Japers. I mean that, Dame. I often 1954 01:35:15,452 --> 01:35:17,852 Speaker 2: think about that. Yeah, just just visiting my dad and 1955 01:35:17,933 --> 01:35:20,412 Speaker 2: Duneda and then just read this article in twenty twenty 1956 01:35:20,492 --> 01:35:22,333 Speaker 2: three and it just haunts me. 1957 01:35:22,612 --> 01:35:25,652 Speaker 3: Yeah, but just quickly going back to the checking in 1958 01:35:25,732 --> 01:35:28,532 Speaker 3: on your parents on a weekly basis. And granted mum 1959 01:35:28,933 --> 01:35:31,893 Speaker 3: is still relatively young, right in her early sixties, but 1960 01:35:32,652 --> 01:35:35,572 Speaker 3: I wouldn't always checking with her every week. But Mum 1961 01:35:35,732 --> 01:35:38,893 Speaker 3: is very good at alerting me to things going on 1962 01:35:39,013 --> 01:35:39,612 Speaker 3: in their life. 1963 01:35:39,812 --> 01:35:43,612 Speaker 2: You love, absolutely love Sharz.

Well, I did have 1966 01:35:48,732 --> 01:35:51,732 Speaker 3: an hour convo with her yesterday, just a head of 1967 01:35:51,973 --> 01:35:54,372 Speaker 3: after reading that story about Gene Hackman. I thought Jupe's 1968 01:35:54,372 --> 01:35:57,772 Speaker 3: being to catch up with Mum, but I think she 1969 01:35:58,293 --> 01:36:01,492 Speaker 3: takes the reins on that relationship. So she wants me 1970 01:36:01,612 --> 01:36:06,013 Speaker 3: to know something. She will ring me, but I need 1971 01:36:06,133 --> 01:36:06,932 Speaker 3: to ring her more. 1972 01:36:07,612 --> 01:36:14,652 Speaker 2: Yeah you do. You discussed me, Chris.

And I didn't. I sort of hesitated 1980 01:36:39,692 --> 01:36:42,612 Speaker 15: for a while because I sort of thought, well, living 1981 01:36:42,732 --> 01:36:45,612 Speaker 15: on my own, what's going to happen if something happens 1982 01:36:45,692 --> 01:36:48,173 Speaker 15: to me?

It's people like me who who are 1993 01:37:14,652 --> 01:37:17,933 Speaker 15: by themselves, and you do worry what happens if I 1994 01:37:18,053 --> 01:37:19,612 Speaker 15: fall down the steps or something. 1995 01:37:20,532 --> 01:37:22,333 Speaker 21: But yeah, so that. 1996 01:37:22,452 --> 01:37:23,612 Speaker 17: Works perfect for us. 1997 01:37:23,973 --> 01:37:26,972 Speaker 2: So there's just that that's the one text a day. 1998 01:37:27,133 --> 01:37:29,732 Speaker 2: So if you didn't respond one text a day, if 1999 01:37:29,772 --> 01:37:32,253 Speaker 2: you didn't respond to the text, then is there someone 2000 01:37:32,293 --> 01:37:35,092 Speaker 2: that he knows close by that he could and it's. 2001 01:37:35,013 --> 01:37:38,173 Speaker 15: Quite funny you should say that.

So I don't think, 2285 01:50:44,812 --> 01:50:47,212 Speaker 21: you know, the likes of Gene Hackman's children have anything 2286 01:50:47,333 --> 01:50:50,732 Speaker 21: to concern themselves about. I think we just have to 2287 01:50:50,772 --> 01:50:52,812 Speaker 21: be realistic about how life works. 2288 01:50:53,133 --> 01:50:55,012 Speaker 4: Yeah, an adult. 2289 01:50:55,293 --> 01:50:59,492 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wasn't exactly saying Trina that they should feel 2290 01:50:59,612 --> 01:51:01,612 Speaker 2: bad about it, but that they probably still would. You know, 2291 01:51:01,732 --> 01:51:05,173 Speaker 2: they probably think if only I had wrung you know, 2292 01:51:05,333 --> 01:51:05,852 Speaker 2: even though. 2293 01:51:05,732 --> 01:51:08,253 Speaker 21: You well, I guess you know, if somebody had said, 2294 01:51:08,412 --> 01:51:10,053 Speaker 21: you know, I could have called twice a day or 2295 01:51:10,133 --> 01:51:12,372 Speaker 21: three times a day, or you know, you can take 2296 01:51:12,412 --> 01:51:15,133 Speaker 21: that to the n degree. But another reason is that 2297 01:51:15,173 --> 01:51:18,252 Speaker 21: you know, there are a lot of families, not mine included, thankfully, 2298 01:51:18,372 --> 01:51:20,452 Speaker 21: but there are a lot of families who, for very 2299 01:51:20,492 --> 01:51:24,213 Speaker 21: good reasons, don't keep in touch. Yeah, you know, so 2300 01:51:24,532 --> 01:51:26,812 Speaker 21: it's just unfortunate facts of life. 2301 01:51:27,013 --> 01:51:27,213 Speaker 8: Yeah. 2302 01:51:27,612 --> 01:51:29,852 Speaker 2: Well, like I said, you're you're you're in your sixties. 2303 01:51:29,893 --> 01:51:32,733 Speaker 2: You're still in the caring stage as opposed. 2304 01:51:32,372 --> 01:51:34,372 Speaker 12: To the being I'm in my sixties. 2305 01:51:34,412 --> 01:51:37,293 Speaker 21: I'm in my mid sixties, so but I am still 2306 01:51:37,333 --> 01:51:41,213 Speaker 21: in the caring stage.
