In writing, once again, about the New Zealand Defence Capability Plan Review, I’m reminded of a TV advert that used to run for Christian Children’s Fund. The script went like this… “As America rushes off to work – a little girl waits…” It flashes between frenetic images of first world problems and a little girl sitting alone on a hillside in the third world. It ends with asking the viewer to do what they can and support one child for just 80 cents a day.
