Engineer, Educator, Entrepreneur and MomGreat to see the former Executive Director of the @asianewzealand - @SimonJTDraper - now rocking his new role as NZ Ambassador to EU and NATO in Brussels. Also good to see @davidmcallister, who the @asianewzealand connected with during his last visit to NZ. Hello to both! 😊
The Foreign Minister met with Members of the European Parliament in Brussels today. They discussed: -deepening EU-NZ cooperation, including in the Indo-Pacific; -Ukraine; & -upcoming European elections 🇳🇿🤝🇪🇺 @davidmcallister @ZovkoEU @bueti @charanzova @UliMuellerMdEP
@asianewzealand longitudinal research tells us that: 1)Over ½ of NZers believe India is important or very important to NZ’s future. 2) Half view India as a ‘friend’ or ‘close friend’ to NZ, and 3) Almost ⅓ of NZers believe India needs more coverage in NZ media.
4) India is now NZ's 5th largest source of overseas visitors, after Australia, the US, UK, and China. 5) Over 70,000 Indian tourists visited NZ between Aug 2022 and Aug 2023, playing a key role in our tourism sector’s Covid-19 recovery.
6) In fact, the number of visitors from India in Aug 2023 was almost double the number of pre-pandemic visitors in August 2019. 7) Of these, about 60% came to visit friends and relatives, compared with 30% in 2003, reflecting growing diaspora and people-to-people connections.
8) But these connections also run deep: the first people from India to make NZ home arrived as early as 1809. 9) By 2018, there were 239,193 people identifying as Indian in NZ, making up more than 5% of the population. 10) 45% have lived in Aotearoa for 10 years or more.
11) In the Dec 2023 quarter, India was NZ’s 14th largest export market and our 12th largest source of imports. 12) Travel is our biggest import and export, followed by trade in goods such as iron, steel, pharmaceuticals and mechanical machinery.
13) At the start of 2024, there were 9,468 Indian international students studying in NZ. 14) While this is significantly down from the 15,897 studying in NZ in early 2020 pre-pandemic, India is still our second largest source of international students after China. Room to grow!
15) New Zealand and India have faced off against each other in 118 One Day International cricket games since 1975. India has won 60 of them. 16) But we have other great sporting connections...mountaineering, hockey, kabaddi, and new connections growing!
17) India has the second highest number of languages spoken globally (at 780), second only to PNG (839) and well ahead of NZ (160). 18) Both NZ and India became independent in the same year: 1947, and diplomatic representation started to be established in 1950
19) The NZ Foreign Minister, the Rt Hon Winston Peters, last visited India in 2020. Today, he touches down again, to explore opportunities to further grow relations and areas of shared interest. 20) National symbols of India include the peacock 🦚, tiger 🐅, mango🥭, lotus 🪷 🙏
