TE POU MATAKANA CONFERENCE 2016 – Dame Tariana Turia
The 'pou' of Te Pou Matakana, Dame Tariana Turia says "Restore our mana and allow us to become the authors of our own destiny".
We have come along way but we could go further. What we need is for the government to be real. They have wasted billions of dollars on us and for us. What we want is to have the opportunity to do these things ourselves. We need a billion dollars a year to make this work. Drip feeding us small amounts of money and they are small amounts of money in the scheme of things. You think about the health system, $16bn dollars a year they give to them and have they made a difference for us and the answer is no. So give us a break. Restore our mana and allow us to become the authors of our own destiny.
