SYDNEY/HONG KONG -- New Zealand has felt the wrath of China, its largest export market and second largest source of foreign tourists, with many scholars calling it a backlash for the South Pacific country's snubbing of Huawei Technologies.
Earlier this week Beijing abruptly announced it had postponed a tourism event scheduled for next week in Wellington. Although the event, meant to usher in a "year of tourism," had been in the works for years, Beijing cited a scheduling snafu for the postponement.
