Update to story on media access for visit from Chinese VP

I blogged on Monday about complaints Chinese had not been able to get access to the visit of the VP of China.

DIA sent me on Tuesday an e-mail which I have attached to the original post. The part is:

We can assure you there is no attempt to block the local Chinese media from attending various activities during the Vice President Xi JinPing's visit or adopt any form of censorship. Invitations have been issued today to local media including Auckland and Wellington based Chinese media.

Better later than never!
