Relationship with Klaus Schwab and/or The World Economic Forum
ASE made this Official Information request to Jacinda Ardern
Response to this request is long overdue. By law Jacinda Ardern should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.
From: ASE
Attn Jacinda Ardern,
In 2017, Klaus Schwab described how he and his World Economic Forum had “penetrated” governments to pursue his own agenda (as articulated both directly by him and via The World Economic Forum), in part via alumni of his “Young Global Leaders” programme.
1) What is your relationship with Klaus Schwab?
2) What is your relationship with The World Economic Forum?
3) What is, and what has been, your role in advancing the agendas of The World Economic Forum and/or Klaus Schwab?
4) What actions have you taken which may reasonably advance and/or be perceived to advance the agendas of Klaus Schwab and/or The World Economic Forum?
5) What incentives, gifts, rewards, and promises (including by not limited to monetary, material, professional, invitations, participation, access, motivational, ideological incentives, gifts, rewards, and promises) have and/or had been offered and/or provided to you in relation to participating in the advancement of such agendas?
6) Within the New Zealand government, who else are you aware of who has had, and/or currently has, a relationship with The World Economic Forum and/or Klaus Schwab?
Please note that all references to “and/or” are intended to be interpreted in the inclusive form, rather than any exclusive form.
Thank you,
ASE
From: Rt Hon Jacinda Ardern
