The regional development minister told the Waikato Times that a visit to his office by the Japanese ambassador in the middle of last year alerted him “to the prospect that the Japanese investors didn't see a clear future in New Zealand with escalating energy prices”.
"Does New Zealand want these manufacturers remaining in regional New Zealand?", the minister has asked. What do you think? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
