FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AUGUST 15, 1998:

MAYOR OF WELLINGTON TO PRESENT KEYNOTE ADDRESS FOR GLOBAL LEARN DAY II

Mark Blumsky, the Mayor of Wellington, will contribute a keynote address
to the opening ceremonies of Global Learn Day II, a worldwide event on
October 11 featuring the elite of distance education.

Global Learn Day II will be "part expedition, part exhibition, part
experiment and all conference" according to Linda Riddell communications
director for the Benjamin Franklin Institute of Global Education who
organize the event.

"It promises to be a landmark event in education history," she says.

"We are particularly pleased to be linking up with Mayor Mark Blumsky in
Wellington, which is the first 'port of call' for Global learn Day II.
Wellington City Council have initiated many major information technology
projects in recent years to ensure that Wellington is one of the most
'wired up' and 'switched on' cities in the southern hemisphere."

Mark Blumsky is very much looking forward to linking up with the Mayor
of Guam for Global Learn Day II. "It's a great opportunity for some
global schmoozing," he says.

"Wellington will be the first capital city in the world to see the sun
rise on the new millennium and Guam is the first city in the USA to see
it, so it makes sense for us to link up and have a chat."

Mark has been Wellington's personable Mayor since 1995. Young,
exuberant and a gifted off-the-cuff speaker, he first made his name in
shoes. Starting as a salesperson for New Zealand shoe giant Hannahs, he
quickly rose to become national sales manager and then in 1991 left to
found his own chain of shoe stores, Mischief. Amongst other things, he
is a past chairperson of Capital Marketing (a regional promotions
organization), past president of the Wellington Retail Association and
remains a director of Mischief (not to mention the lingerie outlet
Bustop).
