    So often its not brief. 20 seconds you are getting the cut down version. But that is still 20 seconds that could be spent drilling down into the hard numbers.
    An understanding of the language and culture is intended output for most Te Reo courses, not fluency. I'd suggest most meet the objective.
    I'm just surprised that in 2018 a business leader doing an intro in Te Reo is still an issue. Its pretty standard at many events I attend. Part of being a NZ'er, connected to Aotearoa.

    p.s. wonder if Ngai Tahu will go A2 at Eyrewell, useful volume of milk for someone. Or longer term even take a position in SML itself ?

    In the absence of any data to validate your view, I'll take your word for it. Seems to me to be a low bar of achievement, but there you go.

    Yup - pretty standard for most events i go to as well. But I have no idea what the speaker is trying to achieve when next to no-one has a clue what they are saying. Without exception there is no translation

    Its a pretty weird world where people feel connected by listening to something they can't comprehend. Sadly its a level of virtue I'll never achieve.

    If westland Milk are getting into it no reason why others wont be. But its not just the milk thats important. Its your brand and certification that goes along with it.

    Kia ora ! In the mean time , while the languge debate continues, and whether the intro should be translated or not ( I for one think it definaitly should) otherwise it is just arogent and rude and irelavent ) , the SP pokes it head above the MA30 line for the first time in over 2 months. The MACD continues to rise . This might be a good time to buy some more. I managed to pick up a few k yesterday afternoon at 8.60 .

    Kia ora! I te wa o te wa, ka haere tonu te tautohetohe, mehemea me whakaputahia te whakawhitinga, kaore ranei (me whakaaro tetahi ki te whakapae) mehemea he tika noa iho, he whakaheke me te hekore), ka pana te SP i runga ake i te raina MA30 mo te wa tuatahi i roto i te 2 marama. Kei te piki ake te MACD. He wa pai tenei hei hoko atu i etahi atu. I whakahaerehia e au ki te kohikohi i etahi ra i te ahiahi o te ahiahi i te 8.60.


    I have no idea if that is correct

    We'll I've sniffed over this one and I reckon there's awesome growth in the years ahead.

    P.S. I am definitely with Minimoke on this one. If people choose to speak or write in Maori I think the right thing to do is that a translation should be provided.

    no but I can begin to appreciate why minimoke went on about the touchy feely stuff being a bit strong. I'm feeling a holisticked !
    Though for the record I am happy for Te Reo to be supported - no other country is going to do it so I believe its NZ's responsibility
    Happier to hear about electro plating and electro ferrin etc etc
