Safety and prosperity for Waitemata

Ming Schaumkel

Living locally means I understand what's at the heart of the community, Waitemata is a thriving and progressive community and I'm proud to say its real treasures are its people.

Safety and prosperity are two key drivers for us. Keeping our environment safe for our children, families and communities means getting the simple things right.

We want to create a prosperous community by supporting small businesses so they feel safe, protected and supported. We want to invest in creating partnerships with our community, to nurture and grow alongside one another.

I want to serve you, the place I was born and raised. I want to bring my work and community experience to our board table, building strong trusting connections with people from diverse backgrounds. I will ensure decisions made are fair and equitable to serve all of our community and I will deliver on the trust you place in me. Find out more

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
