spot on glenda,put in a much cleare way than i could offer.
and lets not forget the thousands of tourists who maybe would choose somewhere else for there travels if it was not for the maori culture.and newzealand is not just a destination where pakeha come to settle there is a good mix of samoans fijians and all the rest.the maori people dont seem to be a down troden race they are to proud for that.
but we must not forget the past ,just learn from it.
