    Aboutthe only thing Snoopy hasn’t worked out is the ethnicity of borrowers and depositors

    Winner has been a tremendous advocate for encouraging diversity and inclusiveness within companies and helped us understand the benefits of same and that is fine and I appreciate him sharing his experience and wisdom. All that is fine but to be clear, what makes me very uncomfortable with HGH is that they single one particular ethnicity out for very special treatment, that's something quite different.
    Perhaps someone who lives in Christchurch could take the board to task over this at the annual meeting ?

    I have read their annual report/review documents, and while they have obviously done a great deal of work on the Māori side of things, that doesn’t mean they are excluding other cultures. I have no doubt whatsoever that they employee people from many different cultures. They are thinking outside the square and aim to create a culturally diverse workforce/team, which they are to be commended for. I particularly like the fact that they employ many young people. Heartland seems to be a genuine and passionate employer and are doing much more than most businesses whose cultural inclusiveness is often nothing more than lip service.

    I'm all for them encouraging young (or any age) maori into jobs. Stop the treadmill to the dole office.

    For us liberal pakehas, we are a bicultural country before we are a multicultural one. In that regard, te reo is one of the country's official languages, and it is perfectly appropriate to recognise the status of tangata whenua as an important part of New Zealand's unique identity.
