tahiti delegation wants more trade

NEWS

French Polynesia president Oscar Temaru meets with his New Zealand counterpart, prime minister Helen Clark today in the Aotearoa capital, Wellington, to discuss trade.
Temaru says there is a serious trade imbalance between the two countries.
Tahiti imports ten times more product from New Zealand than it exports back.
President Temaru wants the New Zealand government to take a closer look at what Tahiti has to offer.
Temaru also wants agricultural protocols established between the two nations.
Accompanying Temaru is a high level trade delegation from the government of French Polynesia, including Ministre de la Mer, Keitapu Maamaatuaiahutapu, the minister of the Sea.
