I cheer them on also because it is us who will be the people who contribute more fully to New Zealand and help shape a new New Zealand. I stand here today as the only MP of Chinese ethnicity, despite 5 percent of the population identifying with this ethnicity. So I say that with regret. There are huge barriers for migrant communities in getting into politics. Our stories are often not told by ourselves. With my platform, I will fight to have our voices heard and fight against the racism that we experience.
