Ahmad Zahid To Focus On Sharing Knowledge With Maori Community, Livestock Industry In Rotorua
GENERAL From Ahmad Erwan Othman AUCKLAND, July 15 (Bernama) -- Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi today continued his five-day working visit to New Zealand by visiting Rotorua, a cultural and geothermal tourism city about three hours' drive from Auckland City. Ahmad Zahid, who is also the Minister of Rural and Regional Development, is scheduled to attend a Maori Business Roundtable in the morning, as part of efforts to strengthen bilateral relations in the social and community development fields. He and his delegation are also scheduled to visit the Whakarewa Living Maori Village, before enjoying a Geothermal Hangi lunch — a traditional Māori culinary experience that utilises geothermal heat to cook food. Before concluding his visit in Rotorua, Ahmad Zahid will visit Onuku Farm, a sheep and dairy farm, to review best practices in the agricultural and livestock industries that can be emulated and adapted in Malaysia. His working visit will then continue tomorrow (July 16) in the capital Wellington, with meetings with several senior New Zealand government leaders. Among the scheduled meetings are with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Law and Order David Seymour, Foreign Minister Winston Peters, Minister for Māori Development Tama Potaka and Minister for Agriculture, Trade and Investment Todd McClay. Ahmad Zahid will also lead Malaysia's participation in the Halal Forum, which is jointly organised by the Halal Industry Development Council (MPIH) and the New Zealand Ministry for Primary Industries, as a platform to strengthen cooperation in the halal sector and food exports. In addition, he is scheduled to witness the signing of a document of understanding between the governments of the two countries in the field of higher education, as a step to expand opportunities for students sponsored by Malaysian agencies to the country.

'I will love Malaysia until my last breath'
Malaysia is the only homeland he has ever known. Dr Mahathir PUTRAJAYA – 'I will love this country until my last breath.' That was the heartfelt declaration by former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad in response to public questions on why he continues to care deeply about Malaysia. Acknowledging those who have asked why he does not simply retire and leave the future to the younger generation, the 100-year-old statesman said his unwavering concern stems from his deep roots in the country. 'This is my country. I was born here. I grew up here and have gained so much from it,' he said in a Facebook post. He stressed that as a Malay Malaysian who has enjoyed a safe and secure life, it would be wrong for him to feel indifferent about the nation's future. 'This country is great. The climate is pleasant, the land is fertile and it is rich in natural resources. 'To me, it has already given so much, and it can offer even more, if we know how to manage it well,' the post read. Dr Mahathir also noted that Malaysia is the only homeland he has ever known. 'I have nowhere else to go. That's why I love this country. I will love it until my last breath,' he said, adding that many people in the world still have no land or nation to call their own. Widely regarded as the Father of Modernisation, Dr Mahathir celebrated his 100th birthday on July 10. More Like This
