 It's good. Great to be here. Thanks, Rod, for taking most of my speech. Nice to see Peter Hayes in the audience. Peter was my first boss, which makes Peter quite old. And Helen, who worked for me longer than most people did. However, how long was it? 20 years or? I wasn't far off, so that's quite good. I usually talk about things completely differently than most people. Tonight will be no different. So, I'll look at it at a different level, and I'll share with you some thoughts from the suit end of town, I guess, is the best way to put it. Before I start, I'd just like everyone to do what I think we don't do in New Zealand, and it's one of our biggest weaknesses. And we don't think about what's happening in the world enough and the impact that it has on the way people engage. So, if you just close your eyes and kind of think about what's going on, the world really changed, I think, well, visibly changed with Brexit. An amazing vote occurred. David Cameron, even our friend Boris, didn't realise what the outcome was going to be, and they were on opposing sides. So, there was a vote that changed the structure of European society and English society. Really, really important. We've got them, and as I've just said, I've just been in Washington in a conference. Amazing time in America where we have two candidates. I don't think any American is actually proud of the fact that they are the two candidates. Regardless of where they sit, it is a shocking outcome for what most people or some people describe as the greatest country in the world. We've got Italy in the next two or three months will probably have a vote on whether it stays in the EU. I think every newspaper you read in the world will tell you that China is on the brink of a financial movement, the impact of which could be dramatic for all of us. It goes on. Most relevant to us is Malcolm Turnbull goes to the polls because he wants to tidy up his position and make sure he's comfortable. He ends up with less power and Pauline Hanson having an amazing number of politicians. Having one for Pauline Hanson was too many. I think you need to just remember that and I'll try and bring it together. I'm not talking about electricity and I'm not going to talk about Tesla. I'm more than happy to talk about that in question time. Rob, thank you very much for talking about what we're trying to do in Vector because I think we are trying to be different. Sustainability from where I sit in its true meaning is to nourish and uphold life. So I think sustainability is going to become synonymous with survival and I don't mean about quite the same level of climate change but about social fabric of society and to me survival of society itself is going to come to sustainability. I've been really blessed this year. I have travelled a lot, been quite lucky. Normally I don't. But the one thing I think you get when you travel is that Tamaki Makara is actually probably one of the best places in the world. We have been actually really, really lucky to end up in this place. The real issue is whether being that lucky we have done enough with it or whether we are going to do enough with it to maintain our right to have Auckland as a great city. So if you just simply look around everywhere in the world, everyone's doing something to allow them to survive. So Moscow's even building an inner city rail network because it's actually one of the worst places in the world to drive. London's built a new underground. Washington's building a railway line to the airport. Sydney's pulled out all its inner city and is starting again. So the list goes on. Unfortunately have we done enough? My gut feel is we actually haven't because when we look at society and we look at the people that have actually been affected most by all of those things that I think are happening in society. What we're seeing is middle class is actually being disenfranchised and is disappearing. The middle class of our world is actually really important how the people who live in Sinhalia survive and how the people who live in Otahu and South Auckland survive. We actually need people to be able to live in Auckland so that we can get the structure to work. So we need nurses to be able to live and work here. We need teachers to be able to live and work here. We need policemen. We even need office workers at Vector to want to come and work there. What we're facing at the moment is that those people are looking at their alternatives for very simple reasons. The Southern motorway is becoming exceedingly clogged. Now they used to live in near their family, they used to engage with their family but they actually want to have a house, they want to have a garden, they want their children to understand what are the things that we were brought up to cherish so they're moving further and further down that road. It takes roughly as long to come from the bottom of the Southern motorway as it does to live in San Francisco. San Francisco is dealing with exactly the same issue. The issue is that they don't want to do that. We're going to go and move and we've seen this to Tauranga, to Hawkes Bay, Nelson, wherever they can go. They can get good schooling, they can get a good job, they can get a really good lifestyle and they probably have some money left behind. So to me the most fundamental issue that we face from a sustainable point of view is we have to fix the Southern motorway. I got a petition when I got home this morning that we should fix the waterfront. I'm not sure what that was about. I think we need to focus on the big things and to me that is one of the most fundamental issues is making Auckland a place where the middle class can afford to live and will live because without them we are not going to be sustainable. The second issue I'd like to discuss because I think it's and Helen will know more than anyone else. I'm a farmer and I don't relate too well to the country. I'm an urban boy. Our waterways are critical to us and they're critical to us on a number of aspects and wearing a suit, I'll just talk about the suit aspects. The first thing is that tourism has become the biggest thing and sorry, I should say, I really am frustrated with Nick Smith because I do not understand the word wade. So he's going to make my rivers wadeable and I just don't know what wadeable means. So am I going to wear those things that some people do when they fish? Does that mean I'm going to play or am I going to do small gumboots or big gumboots? To me every river in this country has got to be one where I can walk through and I can swim. That's it. There is no other middle ground. That's for me on a personal level but also much more on a business level. So from tourism point of view, New Zealand green is a great logo. 100% pure is what every foreigner will come to New Zealand for. But over time we've forgotten to tie the words and meaning together and I think it's a really big issue for tourism. Then we come to the other big industry we have in this country and it's called farming or agriculture and I'm a believer in conscious capitalism. I think Whole Foods is one of the most amazing stores in the world. It's very expensive and I don't agree with that but it is an amazing store. And that is about, in very simplistic terms, it's about one, we should have organic and two, we should have tradable products so we can understand the quality and everything has to be good. We can't get our products into Whole Foods. Whole Foods should have New Zealand products on every level. It doesn't because we don't know enough about making sure that our 100% green works. And to me if we don't get that right we're not going to be sustainable. The relevance of that is Auckland needs the rest of the country to survive and to prosper and we need to be part of that. So then we come to the final point that I need to make and why is this relevant to suits? What's happening around the world and what's happening with those issues that I first raised and hopefully this comes together is that the legitimacy of governments is weakening. That's really critical. If it's weakening and surveys in America actually show that at the same time unfortunately the faith and respect that businesses had in the world is also falling. So there's a survey done in America recently where CEOs are actually rated less trustworthy than politicians. Not sure who did it but let's just run with this. If we come back to the fundamentals of faith and integrity and what capitalism should be we can understand why people are losing faith in it. It is inconceivable that a CEO of a bank can earn over $20 million when a teller is earning just above the minimum wage. It doesn't make sense. And if you're sitting outside that environment you have got to be questioning it. The Americans are looking at moving their minimum wage over time for $15. It's an amazing thing for them to want to do. They're buying into this concept far more than we are but we do need to take on board that we have an obligation. So at the moment there's a void. As I said, we don't trust Hillary, we don't trust Trump and the reasons for each one why we don't trust them because it goes right round the world. We're kind of living in a vacuum because John Key to his credit that one thing he has done I think exceedingly well is build a balloon that makes us feel really good about who we are and how we're going without taking account of what else is happening. But if we look outside there is a complete collapse. There's a vacuum. Something fills it. If you leave the vacuum empty then popularism will take over. That can't be good for capitalism. So if you believe in capitalism and you want it to continue which is everyone in a suit you actually need to do something. And what we're seeing is and it really blew me away is that the directors and the businessmen in America are actually saying we need to do something. Some of them are saying we need to fill the void because simply it's the only way we'll retain what we're doing. Some of them are saying we actually need to fill the void because we're over 40, we've made a hell of a lot of money and we actually have an obligation to do something and they should be applauded. But we should also applaud those for business purpose we're running out of time. Pretty much. We need to do that. The real question will be can the businessmen of New Zealand and the directors of New Zealand actually appreciate that obligation and step up and do it because they will need to change to do it.
