Jack Yan’s candidacy for Mayor of Wellington

This is a bit embarrassing: Cleaning up my draft blog folder I found this post, written back in September, but for some reason unpublished! Wind your mind back to 09/2009 as you read…

Jack Yan announces candidacy for Mayor of Wellington

Hi Jack (Yan)

I can’t say this was a surprise as when I met Jack for lunch, while in Wellington visiting the Formula 1 exhibit at Te Papa, he mentioned the possibility. Ok, it was more than a mention as although we talked about blogging (which is how I met Jack), cars, fonts (he designs them) and much more the one constant was his passion and vision for Wellington:



Jack Yan: the Persuader Blog: I want to build the city you want        




Everyone, I’ve thought long and hard about this. As of midnight, I’ll be giving up part of my private life in favour of a public one, as I announce my candidacy for mayor of Wellington…

Living in Waitakere City means I can’t vote for Jack, otherwise I would!
