"Maori King Calls Nationwide Meeting to Address Government Plans"
Over 10,000 New Zealand Maori gathered to discuss their response to government plans perceived as undermining their rights and status, with Maori King Tuheitia emphasizing the need for action. The government's proposed policies, aiming to address voter concerns and provide equal rights, have been criticized as a significant step backward for Maori rights. The meeting included discussions on national unity and the significance of the Maori version of the Treaty of Waitangi, with attendees urged to uphold Maori values and identity.
