Why Taiwan is so keen on NZ's food and beverage exports

from Afternoons

We're going to talk international trade now, because an article in The Post caught our eye, it states that New Zealand has become Taiwan's second largest source of food imports. In fact in the past year our food and beverage exports to Taiwan have surged 24 percent. To explain why New Zealand's goods are so appealing to Taiwan, and also how we manage the relationship given the geopolitical tension with China, I'm joined by University of Canterbury's Professor of political science Alex Tan.

FoodTravelUSA with Elizabeth Dougherty Elizabeth Dougherty Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency and homesteading-related topics to help protect to us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio. In combination with terrestrial stations that carry the show, we reach people who don't normally listen to politically-driven talk radio. In addition to the LIVE FEED of the show on Saturday afternoons from 5pm-7pm (eastern) / 2pm-4pm (pacific) we produce and distribute a dozen podcast / segments each week.Website: FoodTravelUSA.comHost: Elizabeth DoughertyLive Broadcast: Saturday 5pm Executive Producer: Michael SerioEmail: [email protected] The American Story Christopher Flannery Every generation of Americans has been faced with the same question: how should we live? Our endlessly interesting answers have created The American Story. The weekly episodes published here stretch from battlefields and patriot graves to back roads, school yards, bar stools, city halls, blues joints, summer afternoons, old neighborhoods, ball parks, and deserted beaches—everywhere you find Americans being and becoming American. They are true stories about what it is that makes America beautiful, what it is that makes America good and therefore worthy of love. Each episode aims in some small way to awaken the better angels of our nature, to welcome us into and encourage us to enrich the great American story.
