Swimsuit video lands Air New Zealand in hot water

By Mathew Dearnaley

5:30 AM Saturday Feb 8, 2014

Passengers on Air New Zealand flights to the Cook Islands and elsewhere will be urged – for their safety’s sake – to watch a video featuring cavorting swimsuit models.

The airline, which has been both praised and attacked for previous risque adverts, told the Weekend Herald the video it had produced with American magazine Sports Illustrated will convey all the important safety messages it is required to provide under aviation regulations.

Asked what choice that would leave travellers who may object to having to watch it, a spokeswoman said last night that it had been careful to ensure the Safety in Paradise video was produced in a way “that is tasteful and suitable for viewing by passengers of all ages”.

But the video has been described by Sports Illustrated as a “raucous” production and is timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of its swimsuit edition.

Feminist commentator Deborah Russell says she is disappointed the national flag carrier should have bought into the magazine’s business of objectifying women.

“I’m going to be sitting there worrying about the male passengers sitting next to me leering at the beautiful women on the screen,” said Dr Russell, a philosopher and lecturer in taxation at Massey University in Palmerston North.

“I’m a captive audience for the safety video, but suddenly there are going to be put in front of me a whole lot of references to sex and sexuality.”

Dr Russell, who is Labour’s candidate for Rangitikei, said she was also annoyed Air New Zealand was spoiling a celebration of Pacific culture.

“They seem also [in the video] to have some lovely scenes of fabulous Pacific men and women – why do they need to mess that up with white women in bikinis?”

The airline spokeswoman said Cook Islands Tourism had been involved in the video from the beginning and was extremely supportive of its role in promoting the Pacific nation as a destination to a global audience.

“Safety in Paradise has been tested extensively with a cross-section of customers and staff to ensure we strike the right balance between entertainment and conveying important safety messages,” she said.

“Given this edition of our safety video celebrates 50 years of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, it’s natural that we feature some of the magazine’s best-known models.

“As the video is shot in a beach setting, it’s entirely appropriate they’re wearing beachwear, and we were careful to ensure all talent were in appropriate wardrobe choices.”

Air New Zealand brand development chief Jodi Williams said working with a magazine that reached 70 million people was an opportunity to lift its global profile and to promote a key Pacific destination.

Sports Illustrated franchise director Hillary Drezner is filmed in a preview of the production saying that when the magazine became involved with Air New Zealand “they showed us the ‘Hobbit’ video, and we were like, we need to be there”.

Air New Zealand has been accused in the past by the Stop Demand organisation of indulging in “a pattern of puerile, sexist depictions of women”, such as in adverts featuring a “potty-mouthed” puppet called Rico, a “fares lower than your grandma’s boobs” promotion, and “misogynist” rapper Snoop Dogg.

Stop Demand spokeswoman Denise Ritchie said yesterday she hadn’t seen the latest video.

Australian patriotism alarms New Zealand exporters

Australian supermarkets are dropping New Zealand-made products even if an alternative cannot be sourced locally, producers say, as concerns increase about whether the patriotic shut-out on foreign goods could expand to more product lines.

New Zealand food and beverage makers said Australian supermarket chains Coles and Woolworths were competing to be the “most Australian” company and this was leading to extreme measures to “de-list” foreign tenders.

One major exporter said that the supermarkets, influenced by a fervent Buy Australia campaign, were eliminating more New Zealand products “by the day”.

Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott refused to intervene in the supermarket shut-out after Prime Minister John Key raised the issue in a high-level meeting in Sydney yesterday.

Mr Key said the bans on New Zealand products appeared to breach the spirit, if not the terms of the trans-tasman Closer Economic Relations (CER) agreement.

Labour leader David Cunliffe said Mr Key had not negotiated hard enough and that the campaign was a contravention of CER because each country was required to treat the other’s products the same as their own.

Mr Abbott said that companies affected by the Buy Australia campaign could make a complaint to the Australian Commerce Commission.

So far the ban had affected New Zealand-made cheese, frozen foods and vegetables which were sold under the “house brand” labels.

Export NZ spokeswoman Catherine Beard said house brands were the easiest goods to exclude but Australian supermarkets would find it more difficult to get rid of popular brands such as Watties. Coles upset its customers when it removed New Zealand-made Mainland Cheese from its shelves in 2012.

But Food and Grocery Council chief executive Katherine Rich said some branded products were now also being knocked off shelves and local exporters were getting nervous that the shut-out could spread more widely.

She said cereal exporters and non-food manufacturers such as toilet tissue and hair product makers were worried.

Coles and Woolworths made up 80 per cent of the Australian retail market. If the campaign was sustained, it could cost New Zealand business hundreds of millions.

Ms Rich said frozen food producer Talleys has had 40 products removed from shelves and replaced by Australian products. Suppliers also discontinued 10 Talleys products, despite the fact that local suppliers could not replace them.

Talleys joint managing director Michael Talley said his company had exported 900 tonnes of frozen spinach a year to Australia until it was blocked.

“They no longer have items in their brand range merely because there is no Australian producer.”

He added: “The items for their policy of buying only Australian is being expanded by the day.”

The company’s meat, fish, vegetables and shredded cheese products had been excluded.

Mr Talley backed a formal complaint under the CER agreement and said his company had already provided a legal opinion to the Government.

Some suggested that New Zealand should fight back by shunning Australian goods.

Labour Party food safety spokesman Damien O’Connor said New Zealand should introduce country of origin labelling so that New Zealanders could know if they were buying Australian products and “return the sentiment”.

Countdown, which is a Woolworths brand, was reported to be facing a backlash from some New Zealand shoppers who felt it was disloyal.

Buy New Zealand Made spokesman Scott Wilson said his organisation would not become more aggressive or outspoken in response to the Buy Australia campaign. It worked with a separate organisation known as Australian Made. Both groups encouraged local buying but did not support the exclusion of foreign produce.

How a convicted drug smuggler obsessed a nation

February 8, 2014

News and features writer

Which version of Schapelle Corby do you buy? Hapless beauty school dropout. Persecuted Aussie tourist. Victim of a criminal conspiracy. Latter-day Joan of Arc. Lying drug mule. Ganja Queen. Tragic dupe of her pot-dealing father. Magazine cover girl with selling blue eyes. Small-time bogan dope trafficker sentenced to 20 years’ jail in Bali – more than some terrorists – for stuffing a pathetic 4.2 kilograms of cannabis into her boogie board bag. Barbecue stopper.

Whichever version or combination you prefer, few among us could honestly say we have not been party to a national fixation with Corby, the now 36-year-old woman who is preparing to walk from jail, on parole in Bali, after almost 10 years behind bars.

Last night Indonesian Justice Minister Amir Syamsuddin issued a statement announcing her parole had been approved.

”She has fulfilled all the substantive administrative requirements as stated in the regulations.”

The Corby case has had some real impact in Australia, not least the option for travellers to cling-wrap their luggage before departing international airports.

Back in May 2005, when Corby was 27 and most Australians still believed she was innocent, three Indonesian judges did not buy her story: that baggage handlers, probably in Australia, possibly in Bali, must have planted that marijuana in her bag.

Much of the immediate reaction from Australia was outraged, visceral, hostile and driven by an often ugly nationalism. Waves of tourists in Aussie-flag singlets had long laid claim to Bali as Down Under’s tropical annexe, but now thousands of them were declaring in snap polls that they would boycott the idyllic island. Many wanted a recall of the millions in aid sent to help Indonesia recover from the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami. The ingratitude!

Editorials deplored the ”barbaric” Indonesian prison system and radio shock-jock Malcolm T. Elliott called the judges and President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono ”monkeys”. Elliott and broadcaster Alan Jones were appalled that the Corby trial, though run in an Indonesian court, was not conducted in English.

The Indonesian consulate-general in Perth received an anonymous letter containing two bullets, with a message that reportedly said: ”If Schapelle Corby is not released immediately you will all receive one of these bullets through the brain. All Indonesians out now – go home you animals.”

In 2007 The International Journal of the Humanities published ”Seeing Culture, Seeing Schapelle” by Anthony Lambert, who described Corby as ”the daughter who is Australia”. He wrote: ”Schapelle occupies the place of the mythical Australian beach girl … now trapped in a ‘strange’ land, in non-white hands, and at the mercy of foreign systems and institutions.”

But what has made Australians invest so much emotion in the daughter, if not of the nation, of a Gold Coast fish and chip shop owner? Why did Corby’s plight ignite so much more sympathy than was expressed for other Australians held captive on foreign soil, such as the so-called Bali Nine heroin mules, or David Hicks and Mamdouh Habib in Guantanamo Bay?

Is it that Corby, unlike the Bali Nine, has always proclaimed her innocence? But then, so have Hicks and Habib.

Is it that Corby’s destination was Bali? Despite the 2002 terrorist bombings, when 88 Australians were among the 202 people slaughtered in Bali, Indonesia remains high Australians’ foreign holiday destinations, second only to New Zealand.

”It could have been me or my child because we’ve been to Bali too – like the song says,” reasons an expert on Australia’s consular affairs, Alex Oliver, at the Lowy Institute for International Policy.

Or could the answer be much more confronting? That Corby is the most photogenic and telegenic of the Australians trapped overseas? That, in a line-up, she would win the beauty contest? Would she have attracted so much attention if she looked like Renae Lawrence of the Bali Nine?

”That’s a very good question,” says Fiona Connolly, editor-in-chief of Woman’s Day. It is one that stops her for a moment. ”The answer is … being photogenic certainly didn’t hurt her cause. Those piercing eyes are certainly etched into the memory of many Australians, especially my readers.”

Donald Rothwell, professor of international law at the Australian National University, does not want to venture an opinion on the reasons for the fascination.

”But I will say that if we start with David Hicks, 2001, right through to today with Peter Greste [the Australian journalist jailed in Egypt], the Corby case is absolutely the shining light of how the media placed the spotlight on her situation and that generated a lot of debate … and it created a situation where successive Australian governments have felt compelled to respond to Schapelle Corby in ways that they haven’t responded to other equally meritorious consular cases.”

”An understandable conclusion but not true,” says Alexander Downer, who was foreign affairs minister in the Howard government when Corby was arrested at Denpasar Airport in October 2004 and for the 2½ years that followed her trial. He does not want to speculate, either, on the reasons for the national obsession, but he says Corby received the support she warranted. ”Governments can’t be driven by a media campaign.”

When Fairfax called on Wednesday, Downer had not yet heard the news from Indonesia: Justice Minister Amir Syamsuddin had indicated he was likely to sign Corby’s parole documents by week’s end. ”Oh,” Downer said, ”just in time for her to catch the movie on Channel Nine.”

In an exquisitely happy coincidence for the Nine Network, it had already scheduled Schapelle, the movie, to screen on Monday night, and has now brought it forward to Sunday. The film may be interpreted as leaving room for doubt about Corby’s guilt, but it is partly based on Sins of the Father, the book by Fairfax Media journalist Eamonn Duff, who concludes Corby took the rap for her late father Mick’s drug syndicate.

Downer does not offer an opinion on Corby’s guilt or otherwise – ”How would I know?” – but recalls: ”There were talkback radio hosts who were swearing black-and-blue she was innocent. Then … they changed their minds. I don’t recall there being any particular reason for it, but there was huge sympathy for her to start with, and then almost overnight it evaporated.

”Some media became more forensic and examined the record of the father. And I think the performance of the family – the public went off them after a while. I think perhaps the public saw it as a melodrama. The free-Schapelle campaign dried up.”

It didn’t happen quite overnight, but support for Corby did collapse. By early June in 2005, less than a week after the guilty verdict, 51 per cent of Australians believed she was not guilty, a Morgan poll found. By August 2010, a Nielsen poll found only one in 10 respondents believed Corby was innocent, 41 per cent said she was guilty and 48 per cent did not know. Her fragile mental state at this point was obvious to Fairfax Media correspondent Tom Allard, who she greeted at Kerobokan jail with a manic stare: ”Hey, are you from Krypton?”

Faith in Corby may have waned, but less so the fascination.

The Corby family circus fed the fixation. Schapelle’s half-brother James Kisina, the one who was travelling with her when she was arrested with her boogie board, would be jailed in Queensland in 2006 for his part in a drug-related home invasion. Seven years later, last November, he would be fined for possessing cocaine.

Mercedes Corby, the loyal sister who will take Schapelle into her Kuta home under her bail conditions, was forced to fend off drug claims made by a former friend, Jodie Power. While Mercedes admitted smoking some pot as a teenager, she would successfully sue the Seven Network for broadcasting Power’s allegations.

Mercedes would also appear as a Ralph magazine cover girl in 2008 and be paid a reported $50,000 for its spread of bikini shots. It was a fraction of the $500,000 that Schapelle could have commanded for a ”bare-all bikini shoot”, according to The Daily Telegraph.

But that was back in late 2005, when Schapelle’s stocks were higher. After all, the men’s magazine FHM had revealed its readers voted heavily for Schapelle in its poll to identify the nation’s ”100 hottest women”, but it was during her trial and the editor had omitted her because it may have been seen ”in slightly poor taste”.

Taste has not been a persistent consideration in this saga. Only on Thursday the Corby family denied it had ever retained Kerry Smith-Douglas as a lawyer after she went on Nine’s Today show and, when asked how Schapelle would celebrate her freedom, replied: ”She’ll probably pop a cork of champagne and then roll up a big marijuana joint the size of a cigar and then kick back and enjoy herself.” That was in ”bad taste and ill-informed”, the family said.

Amid the seamy sideshow, many may forget the depth of their initial sympathy for Corby. Soon after the guilty verdict, Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton had sent a letter to the prisoner: ”My heart bleeds for you.”

They were Australia’s ”two most celebrated women of crime”, commentator Anne Summers wrote at the time. A dingo really had taken Azaria Chamberlain at Uluru, and now the baby’s long-persecuted mother was reaching out to another apparent victim of injustice.

”Regardless of what happens to Corby, she has served a national need for catharsis and retribution,” Summers wrote. ”She can never escape this.”

Catharsis and retribution? For the Bali bombings. The Corby verdict had become a channel for Australian anger. The Telegraph splashed on the ”nation’s fury” over the 2½⁄ years’ jail for the bombings ”mastermind” Abu Bakar Bashir when compared with the 20 years for Corby, although the Indonesian prosecutors never did prove Bashir was the mastermind. The Gold Coast Bulletin reported: ”From a window in the tower of the Kerobokan prison, the evil eyes of Bali bomber Imam Samudra stare down on Schapelle Corby.”

Anthony Lambert, in his paper on Corby, argues the Australian response entangled notions of female vulnerability, Schapelle ”as national daughter”, xenophobia, paranoid nationalism and the ”dangers faced by the ‘good’, the ‘innocent’ and the ‘democratic’ in the West”.

Fiona Connolly, at Woman’s Day, says most Australians and her readers believe – regardless of Corby’s guilt or innocence – that the punishment did not fit the crime. ”In the same way Lindy Chamberlain did, Schapelle really gets to the heart of the Australian psyche, which refuses to accept injustice.”

”It was a bloody long sentence,” Downer agrees. Or as John Jarratt, the star of Wolf Creek, sang in a soulful YouTube plea to then prime minister Julia Gillard in December 2012: ”Who cares if she’s guilty / Who cares if she’s not / I care that she’s lonely / And left there to rot.”

Donald Rothwell, the international law expert, points out another reason for the intense focus on Corby: the extraordinary access allowed for news cameras, from the courtroom to the Kerobokan jail. ”There were really no contemporary images of Hicks and Habib while they were detained, and it obviously had an impact on the way the media covered the stories.”

The ratings for Schapelle on Sunday night will be a measure of the endurance of the national obsession with Corby. If a freed Corby gets to see the film, it will add no cheer to her celebrations in Bali. Champagne may have to suffice.

Son of top North Korean official treated in Singapore: report

File:Flag of North Korea.svg

TOKYO, Feb. 7 (Yonhap) — The son of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un’s key confidant has received medical treatment in Singapore to restore hearing, a news report said Friday.

Choe Hyon-chol, son of North Korean military’s top political officer Choe Ryong-hae, underwent treatment in the city state last month, Japan’s Mainichi Shimbun newspaper reported from Beijing, without identifying a source.

The newspaper also reported that Kim has given US$100,000 to help cover the costs.

The junior Choe, an official of the ruling Workers’ Party, had a traffic accident in North Korea in September last year, the newspaper said, citing unidentified North Korean officials in China and Singapore.

Still, it did not elaborate on whether the traffic accident caused hearing loss of the junior Choe.

The National Intelligence Service, South Korea’s top spy agency, said it does not confirm foreign media reports on North Korea.

The report, if confirmed, could suggest that Kim is trying to take care of his confidants following the December execution of his powerful uncle, Jang Song-thaek, on charges of treason.

The senior Choe said in December that he will track down and kill those who do not follow Kim’s leadership.

The senior Choe’s father, Choe Hyon, was a key confidant to the country’s founder Kim Il-sung, the late grandfather of the current leader.

Park urges Pyongyang not to hurt separated families

President Park Geun-hye urged North Korea not to break the hearts of separated families again on Friday, a day after Pyongyang threatened to rethink the bilateral agreement to hold the cross-border gatherings.

Presiding over an integrated security meeting at Cheong Wa Dae, Park also expressed hopes that the reunions, slated for Feb. 20-25, would serve as a catalyst to break the impasse in the bilateral relations.

“With the holding of the reunions, I hope that we can find a fresh momentum to improve inter-Korean relations and work together toward peninsular peace and mutual development,” Park said in the meeting with top figures from the military, government and civilian sectors.

“But looking back on the past, a crisis used to flare up whenever there seemed to be signs of a thaw in the bilateral relationship.”

Noting that security and the economy are closely interconnected, Park also called on security leaders to maintain a robust deterrence posture, particularly when an unpredictable Pyongyang steps up its peace offensive.

“Until the North becomes a responsible member of the international community, we should not slacken our readiness. We should always bear in mind that peace is made possible based upon a robust security,” she said.

Renewing its call for the cancellation of the upcoming South Korea-U.S. regular military exercises, the communist state threatened to reconsider Wednesday’s deal to hold the family reunions, which have not been held since 2010 amid strained inter-Korean ties.

On Friday, more than 60 officials from the South Korean Red Cross and Hyundai Asan, a core firm in cross-border economic cooperation, traveled to Mount Geumgangsan, the venue of the reunions, to make preparations for the gatherings.

“We will check all facilities to ensure that the reunions, where many elderly people will gather, can be carried out without trouble. We will, in particular, ensure the heating system functions well,” said Park Geuk, a senior Red Cross official.

Most of the South Korean staff will remain in the mountain resort for the preparation work, Seoul’s Unification Ministry said.

Less than 90 South Koreans are to meet their long-lost family members in the North at the reunions. The family reunions were first held in September 1983. Since then, only 25,282 people have been reunited with their loved ones.

In the South, some 129,000 people have submitted applications to meet their relatives in the North since 1988. Of the total, 44.7 percent have already passed away with 3,841 having died last year alone.

Coelce é criticada por sua deficiência

 

A situação da iluminação pública nos municípios do Interior do Estado deverá ser tema de uma audiência pública entre Assembleia Legislativa, Coelce e a Agência Reguladora de Serviços Públicos Delegados no Estado do Ceará (Arce). Durante pronunciamento, ontem, alguns parlamentares demonstraram preocupação com o “sucateamento” da rede de iluminação pública no Estado do Ceará.

O deputado Dedé Teixeira (PT) levou o tema à tribuna e ressaltou que muitos prefeitos de diversos municípios têm se queixado da Coelce por conta dos serviços muito aquém do ideal, inclusive, propôs que a Associação dos Prefeitos do Ceará (Aprece) participasse do encontro, visto que a situação, de acordo com ele, é “epidêmica” e atinge, praticamente, todas as regiões do Estado.

Ele ressaltou ainda que é preciso regularizar a situação urgentemente, pois as cobranças de taxas de iluminação pública são feitas ainda que os serviços não estejam sendo prestados de forma devida. “Nós vamos fazer um requerimento solicitando uma audiência pública para que a Coelce, que é a maior ‘repositora’ de iluminação, possa dizer o que está havendo. Se ela está querendo deixar esse tipo de serviço no Ceará. Que saia, mas o problema é que ela arrecada a taxa de iluminação pública e desconta no consumo das pessoas e só repassa para o Município o que quer, e quando tem”, disse.

Segundo ele, a Coelce tem a obrigação de fazer a reposição das lâmpadas da iluminação pública, o que não estaria acontecendo. “As cidades estão ficando escuras, o que acaba por se transformar em um lugar para uso de drogas, marginalidade e todo tipo de coisa errada. Essa é uma reclamação geral dos municípios”, disse o petista, afirmando que a população tem cobrado e os prefeitos têm procurado a Coelce sem resposta. “Que ela deixe de prestar os serviços, mas do jeito que está não podemos deixar”, lamentou.

De acordo com João Jaime (DEM) é papel da Arce cobrar a Coelce para cumprir suas atividades e realizar os serviços de forma correta, o que não está acontecendo. “É preciso chamar a Aprece, associação dos consumidores e a Arce para o debate”.

Fortaleza tem a 3ª menor inflação do Brasil em janeiro

Índice na Capital foi de 0,45%, sendo também a menor do Nordeste

Vestuário

O menor resultado nacional dentre os grupos avaliados pelo IPCA foi do vestuário
ARQUIVO

Fortaleza tem a 3ª menor inflação do Brasil dentre as capitais pesquisadas pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE). A pesquisa divulgada nesta sexta-feira (7) mostra que a inflação medida pelo Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo (IPCA) na capital cearense foi de 0,45%, sendo também a menor do Nordeste.

O índice em Fortaleza de janeiro foi inferior ao registrado em dezembro, que foi de 0,75%. Já no acumulado dos últimos 12 meses, a Capital tem índice de 0,75%. O grupo de despesas pessoais foi o que apontou maior alta com 1,27%, seguido por alimentação e bebidas(0,93%). Os menores índices de Fortaleza ficaram por conta dos grupo de transporte(-0,44%) e vestuário (-0,9%).

Já a inflação nacional de janeiro foi de 0,55% e ficou 0,37 pontos percentual abaixo dos 0,92% registrados em dezembro de 2013. Esse foi o menor IPCA para um mês de janeiro desde 2009, quando o índice foi de 0,48%. Após ter fechado 2013 em 5,91%, o acumulado dos últimos doze meses recuou para 5,59%. Em janeiro de 2013, o IPCA fora de 0,86%.

Transporte é o responsável pela redução nacional do IPCA

O grupo transporte é o principal responsável pela redução nacional da taxa do primeiro IPCA do ano. O segmento registrou queda de 0,03% enquanto em dezembro a alta chegou a 1,85%. A redução é justificada pela diminuição de 15,88% no preço das passagens aéreas, aliadas aos combustíveis, que de 4,12% foram para 0,77%.

O menor resultado dentre os grupos avaliados foi do vestuário. Após a alta de 0,80% com as festas de final de ano, o setor recuou (-0,15%) em janeiro, refletindo as promoções no mercado.

IPCA incorpora duas novas localidades

A partir de janeiro de 2014, o Sistema Nacional de Índices de Preços ao Consumidor (SNIPC) passa a incorporar a Região Metropolitana de Vitória/ES e o município de Campo Grande/MS no IPCA e no Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor (INPC).

Até dezembro de 2013, o SNIPC era elaborado com informações provenientes das Regiões Metropolitanas de Belém, Fortaleza, Recife, Salvador, Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Curitiba e Porto Alegre, além de Brasília e do Município de Goiânia.

Cálculo do IPCA

O IPCA é calculado pelo IBGE desde 1980, se refere às famílias com rendimento monetário de 01 a 40 salários mínimos, qualquer que seja a fonte, e abrange dez regiões metropolitanas do país, além dos municípios de Goiânia, Campo Grande e de Brasília.

Para cálculo do índice do mês foram comparados os preços coletados no período de 31 de dezembro de 2013 a 29 de janeiro de 2014 (referência) com os preços vigentes no período de 28 de novembro a 30 de dezembro de 2013 (base).
