Jin An selected as Labour’s 2017 candidate for Upper Harbour

Jin An has been selected as the Labour Party candidate for Upper Harbour for the 2017 General Election.

“I am pleased to be Labour’s candidate for the 2017 election and I look forward to representing the Upper Harbour electorate in Parliament,” said Jin An.

Jin An is an in-house legal counsel. She is a 1.5 generation Korean-Kiwi who grew up in Auckland. Jin An has worked in the Upper Harbour electorate for a number of years, starting her career as a social advocate and going on to become the first police prosecutor of Korean descent.

Labour’s President, Nigel Haworth, said: “Jin An joins our growing list of energetic and fresh candidates who will stand for Labour in 2017. Our focus is on electing a strong, Labour-led government next year that will rise to the challenge, back the Kiwi Dream and build a better New Zealand.”
