  • China's Political Influence Activities Under Xi Jinping Professor
    Magic Weapons: China's political influence activities under Xi Jinping Professor Anne-Marie Brady Global Fellow, Wilson Center, Washington, DC; Department of Political Science and International Relations University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand In September 2014 Xi Jinping gave a speech on the importance of united front work— political influence activities—calling it one of the CCP’s “magic weapons”. The Chinese government’s foreign influence activities have accelerated under Xi. China’s foreign influence activities have the potential to undermine the sovereignty and integrity of the political system of targeted states. Conference paper presented at the conference on “The corrosion of democracy under China’s global influence,” supported by the Taiwan Foundation for Democracy, and hosted in Arlington, Virginia, USA, September 16-17, 2017. Key points: • CCP General Secretary Xi Jinping is leading an accelerated expansion of political influence activities worldwide. • The expansion of these activities is connected to both the CCP government’s domestic pressures and foreign agenda. • The paper creates a template of the policies and modes of China’s expanded foreign influence activities in the Xi era. • The paper uses this template to examine the extent to which one representative small state, New Zealand, is being targeted by China’s new influence agenda. Executive Summary In June 2017 the New York Times and The Economist featured stories on China's political influence in Australia. The New York Times headline asked "Are Australia's Politics too Easy to Corrupt?,"1 while The Economist sarcastically referred to China as the "Meddle Country."2 The two articles were reacting to an investigation by Fairfax Media and ABC into the extent of China's political interference in Australia,3 that built on internal enquiries into the same issue by ASIO and Australia's Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet in 2015 and 2016.

  • Submission on Market Study Into the Retail Grocery Sector – Preliminary Issues Paper
    The Warehouse Group Limited 26 The Warehouse Way Northcote, Auckland 0627 PO Box 33470 Takapuna Auckland, New Zealand 0740 phone1 +64 9 489 7000 fax +64 9 489 7444 web www.thewarehousegroup.co.nz 4 February 2021 Commerce Commission 44 The Terrace WELLINGTON 6011 [email protected] Submission on Market Study into the Retail Grocery Sector – Preliminary Issues Paper Background The Warehouse Group Limited (TWG) welcomes this opportunity to comment on the market study into the retail grocery sector (Study) and provide feedback on the Preliminary Issues Paper published on December 18. TWG is one of New Zealand's largest retail groups, comprising The Warehouse, Warehouse Stationery, Noel Leeming, Torpedo7, TheMarket and 1-day. As a general merchandise retailer, The Warehouse provides hundreds of thousands of products to New Zealanders, including a very limited range of grocery food and non-food products. Having attempted to create grocery retail business in 2008, we understand the barriers and complexities, although our views in this document relate more to our more limited present-day knowledge. TWG’s purpose is to help kiwis live better every day, and we are particularly keen to support the Study in its efforts to ensure better outcomes for New Zealanders. In this respect, two features of the New Zealand grocery market stand out to TWG: • The first is that TWG understands that New Zealanders pay high grocery prices in New Zealand compared to other international markets. Comparisons in this space will be key to drawing a conclusion. • The second is that the NZ grocery market is globally unique with, in effect, only two wholesalers and retailers of groceries.
