Jack Yan: youngest mayoral candidate has ambitious plans for Wellington
- Wellington Scoop
- Although well acquainted with the business world, Jack Yan is a new face in Wellington politics. At 37, Mr Yan is the youngest mayoral candidate this year. He was born in Hong Kong before moving to Newtown at the age of 3, speaks four languages and has traveled widely. With a background in the fashion and environmental industries, he definitely intends to shake things up if elected after his first mayoral campaign.

The misery of Manners Street, and Willis Street, and Taranaki Street
- Wellington Scoop
- There were lots of men at work in the disintegrating Manners Mall this afternoon. But after Matt Calman’s exposé in the DomPost, I didn’t see any of them asleep on the job. I did notice, however, that some of the workers were saving the bricks which had been ripped up from the pedestrian mall – perhaps they’ll be used again when councilors next change their minds about Manners Street.
