A
survey from the Classification Office offers a glimpse at
how pervasive misinformation is in New Zealand, and how
it’s affecting our beliefs.
From the nationally
representative survey of 2,300 Kiwis, one in two had at
least one belief based in misinformation, and one in five
had at least three such beliefs. These ranged from believing
scientists are lying about the safety of vaccines, to
believing 5G communications cause Covid-19.
The SMC
asked experts to comment on the survey.

New Zealand maritime security strategy targets China
New Zealand’s maritime security is facing a host of “rising threats,” according to a strategy paper recently released by the Labour-Green Party government.
The 40-page document, “Maritime Security Strategy Guardianship of Aotearoa New Zealand’s Maritime Waters,” was officially launched on June 17 at a conference hosted by the Victoria University of Wellington (VUW) Centre for Strategic Studies, following its publication in December by the Ministry of Transport.

The strategy requires the country’s maritime security systems to “step up” in line with the government’s major Strategic Defence Policy Statement, published in 2018. That paper lined up with US preparations for war, singling out China and Russia for the first time as the principal “threats” to the “international community.”
