Remembering my Great Uncle, Pvt George Burns of Timaru, this Armistice Day, who was killed with fellow New Zealand soldiers in the Italian Campaign in December 1943. George worked as a gardener before the war, and rests at the Sangro River War Cemetery in Italy. Lest We Forget.
Oh yes. Crew members from the Royal New Zealand Navy, HMNZS Aotearoa and HMNZS Te Mana, in Saigon Port this evening. @nzinvietnam @tredene @NZDefenceForce
I love everything my friends at @BlueDragonVN do to combat human trafficking and support vocational training opportunities for young people in Hanoi and beyond. I somehow missed the official Blue Dragon Marathon Walk today, but I did pound the pavements of Saigon in solidarity!
Talking CP-TPP at KPMG in London with friends including Lord Ed Vaizey, Ambassador Long and Mark Garnier MP. It’s not the EU, but the UK has much to gain by trading with these dynamic markets, committed to rules based trade. @edvaizey @Ambassador_Long @Mark4WyreForest @UKASEAN
Talking the “5 C’s” being bandied about in the c-suite this morning - Cost of Living, Conflict, anti-Corruption, Customer Experience ... and Confidence.
I think rainy season has arrived in Saigon.
Good work @DamienOConnorMP. Trade deals are another piece of essential infrastructure for exporters to rely on.

Emotional discussion on issues faced by transgender people in Vietnam at the KPMG Klubhouse in Ho Chi Minh City last night. Inclusion and diversity is good for business. Thanks @EmilyHamblinUK @Sam_J_Wood @myerscsam @JessicaLStern for making it real. vcpn.net
“NZ Inc“ has had a tremendous few weeks in South East Asia at the big summits in Phnom Penh, Jakarta and Bangkok, as well as the Trade Mission to Vietnam. Everyone loves it when friends come to visit! Well done @jacindaardern @DamienOConnorMP @PhilTwyford and all involved.
You can’t have too many West Coasters at an important meeting. Great to join @DamienOConnorMP and Vietnam’s Trade Minister HE Nguyen Hong Dien at the State Dinner held for @jacindaardern in Hanoi this week.

As global leaders gather in Phnom Penh, we hosted “Team UK” at KPMG, welcoming ASPAC Trade Commissioner, Natalie Black, Trade Minister Greg Hands MP, and the uber talented Lord Vaizey of Didcot, before world class Khmer art by Sopheap Pich. @natalieblackuk @GregHands @edvaizey
Loved hosting this event on Women’s Empowerment in our Phnom Penh office. Incredible women with strong voices from across SE Asia. Lots to learn and do. Great to welcome @GregHands @edvaizey @natalieblackuk @JonLambe @DomWUK and @iangibbonsr in this huge week for Cambodia.

Good to meet in Dundee the local MP and Minister for Local Government Empowerment and Planning, Joe Fitzpatrick MSP. We talked about Scottish politics and the SNP’s election of a new First Minister and links with NZ including Scott’s ship the Discovery moored in Dundee.
From Auntsfield to Annsfield. Who knew that it was an emigrant David Herd from Dundee, Scotland that started it all in Marlborough NZ by planting grapes there in 1873. It’s a real selling point for the locals to buy wine from the area where he set up his vineyard.
What an honour to meet the winners of the Prime Minister’s prizes for Science. So much science and so much benefit to the community.
