A warning notice on potential risks to Chinese tourists travelling to New Zealand has raised further questions about the state of the New Zealand-China relationship. ANTHONY KWAN/GETTY IMAGES The Chinese consulate and embassy in New Zealand have issued notices to Chinese tourists, outlining the risks they may face in New Zealand. The event, due to take place at Te Papa on February 20, was postponed due to what Tourism Minister Kelvin Davis described as a "scheduling issue". ROSA WOODS/STUFF Tourism Minister Kelvin Davis refused to comment on the notices issued to Chinese tourists. Chinese tourists numbers to South Korea plummeted for 11 months after March 2017 due to an informal Chinese boycott against South Korea, according to coverage by Forbes.
