There are over one and half billion and ethnic Chinese people which represents a large proportion of the world population. This size stems from its age as the oldest surviving civilisation. It is a nation with an extensive and diverse history. China is under a new enlightenment from the Dark Ages of 1930s through to 1980s. Now it is having a profound impact on international affairs in the third millennium, and I do not think that this effect will subside anytime this decade. In regards to business developments, it was logical for me to further explore the potential impact of Chinese global affairs - economically and geopolitically especially how it would confront New Zealand in the long term.
For this life experience and 'discovery', I have organised an informal yet crucial insight tour. Preliminary planning during the next few months will establish areas in my family life that will require further and better exploration. This fact-finding research cannot be done in New Zealand. The primary motivation for this tour is to add value to my personal development. This currently needs to be strengthened, in order that my identity can be better understood and characterised. I plan that the tour will occur in the third quarter of 2006. Significant factors such as weather, costs, time availability, security and preparatory readiness will be in favour for this time period.
Preliminary agenda places of interest are those within the Pearl River delta region such as Hong Kong SAR, Guangzhou, Shenzhen; and East Coast metropolises of Shanghai and Beijing. Many places in Beijing are consider World Heritage by United Nations, so this place will have much to offer. Other significant places include Great Wall and possibly more inner regions.
