Listen today to Paakiwaha, an exciting weekly current affairs programme with a Maori perspective. Dale Husband is
filling in for Willie Jackson as host for this week’s show, which is broadcasted by Radio Waatea with funding from New

Act MP Stephen Franks talked to Dale about why he warned Ngai Tahu about taking a case to the United Nations and Ngai
Tahu CEO, Tahu Potiki explained to Willie Jackson why they took such action. Dale talks to Women’s Affairs Minister Ruth
Dyson about Maori women and the student loans scheme; Jim Perry spoke to Merepeka Raukawa-Tait who gave her view about
Maori men and their role within whanau and Paddy Whiu talked to Titewhai Harawira about the police who were involved in
the hikoi. A new Maori Party is about to be launched and Dale talks to Professor Whatarangi Winiata about his new role
within the party.
Sports commentator Ken Laban gives his weekly sports roundup and Qantas media award winner and political reporter Duncan
