Jaspreet Boparai returns to Freedom TV with Be Kind be Blind. In this webinar, Jaspreet & Gill explore the lead-up to the latest fad sweeping the country; Co-Governance. With the local bodies' elections due in October, it's time to take a closer look at this issue, which seems to have become a buzzword with all our elected representatives and democracy is suddenly passé.

Make no mistake - under the excuse of equity , the very fundamentals of democracy are being lost. In Rawiri Waititi's words : "Aotearoa could be the "best nation in the world" - but not necessarily as a democracy."

Jaspreet Boporai is a wife, mum of two kids (6, 4) and a dairy farmer. She and her husband manage 1500 cows over two farms in Western Southland for a large equity partnership. She and her husband moved to NZ in 2009, swapping 80 hour weeks in corporate banking for longer weeks in farming! (Her husband has done his MBA and Jaspreet was a mortgage underwriter in India).

Jaspreet's family has been serving in the Indian army for many generations and nearly 30 years ago, her dad served in the Indian army contingent under the aegis of the United Nations in Africa. Thus, began her interest in all things UN related!
