NZTE and organized crime synergies going forward

From: Edmund Dantes
Dear New Zealand Trade and Enterprise,
Has NZTE, or any representatives of or people associated with NZTE, formed business relationships with transnational criminal organizations or persons over the past year, and have any meetings between representatives of NZTE or people associated with NZTE been held in New Zealand since Christmas?
If any such meetings were held and I am sure they have been - did any concern the IT sector, and, in particular online payment systems? If so, who was present at those meetings, where were they held, when were they held, and what was discussed?
NZTE, along with a number of government departments, have a long and lucrative history of forming relationships with transnational human traffickers and exploiters of migrant workers to the benefit of the New Zealand economy and various international mafia figures, corrupt diplomats, and officials in respect of the fishing industry, export education sector, and beyond. More generally, how does New Zealand stand to benefit from international money laundering for the Eastern European mafia and corrupt Asian officials, for instance, through nebulous IT front companies, and what other growth areas does NZTE see in the mid-term going forward?
Yours faithfully,
Edmund Dantes
