Kia ora kautau katoa,
I am Zakaria Wahed Taupo.

Kia ora kautau katoa, I am Md Zakaria Wahed but my family, friends, staff and clients know me as Taupo. I was born in Bangladesh and for the last 22 years I have lived and worked in this, the lovely nation of Aotearoa.

My birth place was in the town of Barisal, Bangladesh, on 05/01/1975. I came to New Zealand in 2001 and gained my New Zealand citizenship in 2006. Today I am a happily married father of 4 living locally in the suburb of Papamoa.

While there are a whole host of opportunities regionally, I understand that there are many challenges being faced by all. I suggest the next most important challenge facing you and I is the general election taking place on the 14th of October.

To this point I have put my hat into the political ring and intend to stand as an independent in this year’s general election. It is my intention that this bio will give you a reason to stop and think about voting for me and supporting my desire to help improve the state of our nation. Beware this bio is full of shameless plugs for your political vote.
