Sarees can be of simple cotton material or intricate in design with gold and silver linings, embellished with mirrors, pearls, diamonds and other precious and semi-precious stones. The Saree has undergone a revolution in colour, texture and quality, with its price ranging from Rs 500 ($10) to Rs 500,000 ($9600). Some Sarees, specially made for the opulent and for film stars in lavish productions, are said to have cost more than Rs 2 million ($38,300) each.

The World Hindu Economic Forum (WHEF) stands an example of collaborative enterprise, founded on the principle that economic strength is essential to societal well-being. Established in 2012 in Hong Kong, WHEF was conceived by Swami Vigyananand to bring together financially successful partners of the Hindu society, including entrepreneurs, industrialists, economists, and professionals, with the aim of sharing knowledge, resources, and expertise to generate surplus wealth and uplift communities.

“One of the most significant outcomes of the Annual General Meeting was the announcement of strategic expansions across New Zealand. This includes the establishment of new branches in Rotorua and Hamilton, strengthening of Hindu Women’s and Hindu Youth initiatives, deeper engagement with central and local government agencies for improved community representation and finally, support for student and youth leadership development through targeted programmes and mentorship.”

“India has been closely following political developments in the South Pacific, particularly in Fiji, Samoa, and the Cook Islands, where China’s influence has become increasingly noticeable. In a bid to expand its own presence in the region, India aims to strengthen its relationships with both Polynesian and Melanesian countries.”- Balaji Chandramohan, Indian Newslink Correspondent

While India has been praised as a resilient ‘bright spot’ amid global uncertainty, a blanket 25% tariff on its exports to its largest trading partner is a serious concern. Sectors such as gems and jewellery, textiles, and footwear, which are heavily reliant on the American market, stand to be severely impacted. The Indian government’s steadfast refusal to compromise on its core national interests, such as protecting its domestic dairy and agricultural sectors from foreign competition and maintaining price controls on essential medical devices, signals a new, more assertive approach to trade negotiations.

India is not without options. As global alliances shift and economic power centres recalibrate, India stands at the forefront of a new geopolitical era – confident, outward-looking, and eager to deepen strategic partnerships. For New Zealand, this moment presents a rare and timely opportunity to elevate its engagement with India beyond cultural camaraderie and into the realm of robust economic cooperation.
