What does business think of Jacinda Ardern's State of the Nation speech? She spoke of strong economic growth, trade deals with the EU and Britain and sorting out badly performing polytechnics. Kirk Hope of Business NZ offers his analysis of the speech. Iwi are playing a more and more important role in the NZ economy and are a real success story. Jason Mika is a senior lecturer at Massey University and a director of Te Au Rangahau, the Maori Business and Leadership Research Centre. He tells us the secret of iwi business success. Department of Conservation staff are so fearful on the job that some are starting to wear body cameras.
