Royal New Zealand Navy warship HMNZS Aotearoa made a port visit to Fleet Base East in Sydney, New South Wales, on 13 March 2021. Aotearoa has been exercising off the east coast of Australia to test her capabilities in international waters. This has included Replenishment at Sea (RAS) exercises with Royal Australian Navy guided missile destroyer HMAS Hobart and frigate HMAS Stuart. The RAS training was a chance to strengthen relationships between the two neighbouring countries and has showcased Navy's interoperability at sea with its counterparts.

Foreign Affairs Minister Nanaia Mahuta and her Australian counterpart Marise Payne have released a joint statement saying they are "deeply concerned" about China making "significant" changes to Hong Kong's electoral system.

The Chinese National People's Congress on Thursday voted near-unanimously to make several changes to Hong Kong's electoral system which critics say undermine the autonomy promised to the territory in 1997 when it was transferred from Britain to China under the 'one country, two systems' model.

It's that time of the year when it seems like there is a public holiday every second week. And while that's great news for Monday to Friday workers, the feeling isn't as sweet for some shift workers missing out on several public holidays every year. 

One man who works Tuesday to Saturday in finance says he has missed around 10 holidays, since he started working at his company full time three years ago.

A Muslim community leader has slammed the "paltry" amount of money being allocated to the Government's efforts to help those still suffering from the effects of the Christchurch terror attack.

Fifty-one people died when a gunman opened fire at two mosques on March 15, 2019. An event marking the anniversary will be held Saturday afternoon - the first after last year's planned commemoration was cancelled as the COVID-19 threat arrived on our shores.

Note from Nighthawk.NZ:

 Be bloody thankful the government offered that... anywhere else in the world you would have got nothing. We are also in a pandemic and the GDP is down... technically they the government don't need to even give this... so be thankful. You should be seeking it from the Australian government since he was an Australian.
