Former All Black great Frank Bunce was a major attraction at the Pacific Showcase this week where he helped man the Niue Tourism stand.

Frank_Niue   Bunce donned a Niue t-shirt and chatted to show-goers about Niue Island along with Niue Tourism Development Coordinator Vanessa Marsh who many at the event also recognised as a former Miss South Pacific. Marsh and Bunce were also joined by current Miss Niue Aotearoa Maria Mitimeti.

Bunce’s Niuean heritage led him to take a journey of discovery to Niue a few years ago and he has since become a tourism ambassador for the island.

Business After 5 at MFAT
Thursday, 25 August 2011 11:21

Last night (Wednesday 24th August 2011) was another very successful NZPBC networking evening with  forty attendees there to listen to the ever-present wisdom of John Hayes (MP for Wairarapa and Chairman of the Select Committe for Defence and Trade). John was supported by rather enlightening data, presented by Mike Flanagan (NZPBC Trade Analyst), showing the Pacific Island Countries' population and trade figures in relation to NZ's trade with the rest of the world.

The evening was hosted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade and NZ Trade and Enterprise that catered for us very well - and provided a very comfortable venue.

The NZPBC holds these evenings each month and endeavours to provide speakers with knowledge pertinent to your interests as well as the opportunity to "rub shoulders" with other business people experienced in Pacific Island trade.

Mike's presentation follows:

Michael Jones with a glass of the noni fruit tonic being sold to China.

It smells awful, and tastes ghastly. And it's certainly not pretty - in some places it is known as the "dog dumpling", or even the "vomit fruit".

 

But the humble noni, used as a medicine for hundreds of years by ancient Indians, could prove a boon for the Pacific Islands if a controversial Chinese businessman is able to deliver on his promises.
