- Description
Australian Prime Minister John Howard, bowed down under military kit, is followed by New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark, blithely tossing flowers of (of peace). Exhibition caption reads - In 2001, Australian and New Zealand defence priorities diverged more sharply than previously. While John Howard's Australian government boosted defence expenditure and re-equipped strike elements in its airforce, Helen Clark's New Zealand government abandoned all pretence that the RNZAF was capable of a military role and concentrated on better equipping the army to play a peace-keeping role in trouble-spots like East Timor.
