That's an FTA with rice, please......
So New Zealand has become the first developed nation to sign a Free-Trade Agreement with China. Analysts say the agreement will give New Zealand improved access to one of the world's fastest-growing economies.
I have blogged about this particular FTA before. In principle, I am totally in support. It is the details that I do not have at present. An email received this morning from NZTE might just help.
According to the email: 'The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) and New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE), in association with other government agencies involved with negotiating the FTA, are holding a series of two day presentations throughout the country to help answer businesses questions. These informative and interactive workshops will provide in-depth insight into the FTA and practical advice for business people considering entering the Chinese market'.
The Chinese language market is definitely on the Pingar agenda. I have already visited Hong Kong and engaged with the NZTE team based there. The two-day presentations outlined above should fill in the spaces and explain just how this freshly signed FTA might help Pingar's own expansion into this massive market. Sign me up. And a side of prawn crackers too, please.
