Liam Finnagan is finishing up his masters in international relations, and is leaving to spend a year in China in the next month. Sherry talks to him on Ann Marie Brady, the history of China NZ relations, and if there is growing tensions between the two countries.

Its a tricky space to navigate, and it’s important to remember when critising foreign governments and their values, that there is the chinese state that has questionable stances on human rights. And there are the migrants and diapsora communities in New Zealand: wanting to connect and often just seeking a better life for their family. Open, respectful discussions, are the productive way forward when navigating the space.
