There were 15 flags flying yesterday at Oi Manawa, the national memorial for the Canterbury earthquakes on the banks of the Ōtākaro/Avon River, representing the 15 home countries of 185 individuals who lost their lives. On behalf of the Green Party, I acknowledge the family, friends, and colleagues of all of those who passed, and especially the families of students who were studying English in Christchurch, who are so far away—in Japan, Korea, and elsewhere. Know that we hold your loved ones close, and we remember them.
