Yes we are open. Happy New Year!
Happy New year! This year is the year of the dragon. Chinese dragon is a symbol of power, strength, and good luck. It stands for Yang. The dragon is highly respected in Chinese culture. It usually symbolizes power, nobility, honor, luck, and success. It is also a symbol of the Chinese nation, which is why Chinese people refer to themselves as descendants of the dragon.
The dragon is the 5th of the 12 Chinese zodiac animals. The year of the dragon includes 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976, 1964, and 1952… 2024 is the Year of the Dragon. It is the year of the wood dragon. The dragon is a sign of power and energy.
The 2024 zodiac year will be a year of prosperity. Everything will be getting thriving. We look forward to serving you again.

Poll: Do you think Te Huia's trial should be extended?
The future of Hamilton’s Te Huia rail service remains uncertain, with Waikato Regional Council looking at asking for an extra year of trial time - with the same level of government funding.
Regional councillors will meet on Thursday to vote on a proposal to support, or not, sending a letter to the New Zealand Transport Agency’s (NZTA) board asking it to extend Te Huia’s five-year trial until June 30, 2027, and to maintain the NZTA’s 60% Financial Assistance Rate (FAR).
Do you think Te Huia's trial should be extended? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
