Pursuant to section 10(1) of Flags, Emblems, and Names Protection Act 1981, the Minister for Arts, Culture and Heritage, Hon Maggie Barry ONZM, hereby gives notice that the New Zealand Flag is to be half-masted on all Government and public buildings on Sunday 29 March 2015 to mark the funeral of the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore's first Prime Minister.

This instruction applies to all Government Departments and public buildings which have flag poles staffed on Sunday.

The flag is half-masted by first raising it to the top of the mast and then immediately lowering it slowly to the half-mast position.The half-mast position will depend on the size of the flag and the length of the flagpole. The flag must be lowered to a position recognisably “half-mast” to avoid the appearance of a flag which has accidentally fallen away from the top of the flagpole. As a guide, the flag should be more than its own depth from the top of the flagpole.

At the end of the day, the flag should be raised again to the top of the flagpole before being fully lowered.

For more information about half-masting the flag, visit http://www.mch.govt.nz/nz-identity-heritage/flags/half-masting-new-zealand-flag.

New Zealand and Australia are important geostrategic partners.

Australia should follow suit and suck up to our government.

The difference.
Leongsam is in NZ and he can do what he wants.

Neddy, a member of the WA Liberal Party, have requested that Australia should not go half mast. We just had a funeral for Malcolm, and he himself was a giant of a man, no less controversial as Singapore MM, but he opened up Australia to migrants like me.

Malcolm Fraser changed Australia for the better, but left out economic reforms. That was about the period when LKY called Australia a white trash.

So, we will be sending Red speedo to LKy funeral instead.
