Ka nui te mihi atu kia koutou katoa. Hello to everyone, I believe the purpose of holding public office is simple 'To effectively serve the community and the people in it'. I'm part of 'Team Opotiki' and we stand to give you the option of effective democratic leadership. We are all 100% Opotiki focused on priority issues: Youth Affairs; Law and Order; Community Care and wellbeing; the local economy, business development and sustainability of the environment and fiscal responsibility of council spending are all topical issues that require our attention. Visit www.cooksonforbes.co.nz. I'm ready to represent you on council. For effective change vote for me, 'Team Opotiki' and Barry Howe for Mayor. He aha te mea nui o te ao, maku e ki atu, he tangata, he tangata, he tangata. When you ask what is important, I'll reply, the people, the people, the people. Nga mihi, Fred Cookson BCom CA
