found myself trawling through Facebook. I had just finished watching a Close Up story on a guy I know – Wikatana Popata‚ who they were calling the new face of Māori protest – and I decided to go and check the story’s feedback on the Close Up page on Facebook.

Subject to a degree of anonymity‚ Facebook users felt free to comment honestly

Tourism in New Zealand I have chosen to look at tourism in New Zealand because as a country they are very open‚ they want to attract a lot of visitors‚ and they also have many interesting tourism products available for a variety of people. New Zealand does a lot of advertising to young people looking to go backpacking and older people for the scenery.

I believe this law should be reconsidered for our well being. The age to buy any form of cigarettes‚ cigars‚ and electronic cigarettes as well as chewing tobacco should be 21. Currently it is at 18 and giving teens a longer period of time to consider the choice of whether to smoke or not‚ at such a young age is crucial. Raising the age to 21 will
