Indian community leaders in New Zealand have voiced concerns over New Zealand First leader Winston Peters' recent remarks on immigration, which they say risk misrepresenting migrants' contributions to the country.

In an interview with the New Zealand Herald, Peters said he was concerned about the number of migrants entering New Zealand, calling it an “alarming development” that he believed Kiwis were “acutely aware” of.

In recent years, a concerning trend has emerged within our Kiwi Indian community in New Zealand where annual “community awards” are distributed en masse, often to the same familiar faces, with allegedly little transparency or vetting. In some cases, the selection process appears to hinge more on proximity to the organiser than on actual community impact.

Air New Zealand has just announced an Indian-origin executive, Nikhil Ravishankar, as its next CEO, while Air India is led by a Kiwi, Campbell Wilson, who hails from Christchurch.

Congratulations messages are pouring in, and Kiwi Indians are beaming with pride. Somewhere in the aviation universe, the stars seem to be aligning — though not (yet) for a direct flight between the two countries.
