Let's make this birthday one to remember.

63 years old (Born on August 09, 1961)

Happy Birthday, John Key! May your day be as smooth and successful as your famous handshake moments. From leading New Zealand with charm to gracefully withdrawing Kiwi troops from Afghanistan—your legacy remains strong (and so does that iconic grin!).

Whether it's navigating political waters or mastering the art of barbecue diplomacy, you've always kept things interesting. Here's hoping this birthday brings you fewer debates and more cake slices.

Cheers to another year filled with laughter, golf swings, and perhaps a little less politics—but knowing you, probably not! Keep smiling; after all these years in office, you're still our favorite "Key" player.
