Description

Two farmers chat across the farmyard gate. One comments 'I suppose a giant plastic waka will help keep the traditional culture alive' and the other replies 'With the price of dairy products these days, maybe Fonterra should build a giant plastic milk bottle'. Context - The government has hit back at criticism over a $2 million waka venue centre for the Rugby World Cup (RWC), defending the cost as necessary to host a world-class event. Co-leader of the Maori Party Pita Sharples says the waka will promote Maori culture during the Rugby World Cup. There has also been heated debate about the price of milk for New Zealanders at a time the dairy industry is doing very well.
