wow! anyone who suggests Maori have the same opportunities as non-Maori in this country is deluded...or just ignorant. Although reading comprehension may pose a challenge to you, I can guarantee you will find (with very little difficulty) masses of literature which clearly outlines why Maori are fundamentally disadvantaged in Aotearoa New Zealand today. If educating yourself using actual books is too difficult, I can suggest some very simple google searches you can try...effects of colonisation on indigenous people, uneven power relations, cultural dominance, cultural deficit theory, symbolic violence etc etc...and then once you have a few clues you could try reading Te Tiriti o Waitangi (both versions of course)...And then, once you know what you are talking about you will be more qualified to comment. The only trouble is...you will have nothing to argue!
kotiro' I totally agreed with your comment and for vyxn the English and the Iris never got over it for year's gunning and bomb one another down let alone the scotish and for you Mike' by all mean give our Maori country back and read the above as an exampl, the world is full of asian's with respect what was agreed upon until you got too bloody greedy to think you would try your thiefing material again..AAAwhat get real matey and re-think Adam and Eve are long gone but Noa's ark as GOD's assisting us to get rid of all corruption's and all satan's men back to hell..
Wow reading comments, fair cop guys....sound like a pretty good deal for our people though...yes we do hear about Maori this Maori that....Im also a believer stand on your own feet...but what an opportunity to build back home. We can argue till the cows come home people....wasted energy I reckon...past grievances aye bummer....
