Republic prediction

New Zealand’s foreign minister Don McKinnon is predicting the country will eventually become a republic. McKinnon was in New York to address the UN and other international bodies.

At an Asia Society meeting the minister was asked how New Zealand viewed the Australian republican debate. He says he believes Australia will become a republic before the Olympics in the year 2000. And McKinnon sees New Zealand following suit and becoming a republic just a few years after Australia.
