New Zealanders of all ethnicity and culture were treated with glimpses of Nepali culture on the occasion of the Nepal Festival held in Auckland CBD on Saturday, March 27.
The festival has only very recently come out in open public spaces three years ago in 2018 after having been organised for more than a decade in the closed doors of community centres.
Explaining the rationale behind this move, the then president of New Zealand Nepal Society Dinesh Khadka had told the Indian Weekender, In the last few years, we have seen a spike in the number of visitors to the event and not just the Nepalese community but the Kiwi, Maori, Chinese and extended Indian community which led us to think and plan for a bigger venue.

Flag carrier Air New Zealand is backing the government’s in-principle decision to implement a biofuels mandate aimed at reducing carbon emissions in the transport sector, as part of the country’s goal to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Chief executive Greg Foran states today: “While we see hydrogen-powered or electric aircraft as viable options for our domestic and short-haul network, being able to access sustainable aviation fuels at a competitive price will be very important for us when it comes to decarbonising our long-haul operations.”
