geopoliconomic hint
I almost forgot to post the hint for this week's geopoliconomic question! The hint is that the answer relates to an upcoming change in New Zealand on 31 July.

I apologise in advance if this one ends up being too obscure. But I think the answer will be interesting in any case. Comments are enabled on this post, feel free to ask questions if you like.

Google makes that too much of a hint.

About 5000. But it's not an alphabet because the characters don't represent phonemes.

I was sort of hoping for questions related to the quiz. :)

You're right, I stand corrected. I must say I've been reading all these quizzes you put up along with all the hints and stories about your travels and life abroad, and I can only think of one question. Is that your real hair?

It is indeed. More evidence can be found here. However, my hair only stayed that colour for a couple of weeks before it grew out and I cut it back. It sure was fun while it lasted, though!
