I want to be a part of the 1 million strong because it's our time as Māori, to me it's on equal terms as The Million Man March they had in America! It's our time to SHINE ! Tēnei te wā whakahirahira mō tātou Katoa !

To celebrate our 2022 Māori language week our small Interior Plastering business listened to Waiata Māori which was enjoyed by over 350 construction workers at the large commercial building project we are currently working on.

I think its my duty as a Māori man to learn and encourage others to normalise Te Reo Māori and be a part of the great work being achieved by all involved . Our children have a right to know our culture to help shape there future prospects.

Tēnā koutou , Ko Denny Te Amohanga tōku ingoa, He uri o Tainui me Te Arawa E noho ana au kei Te Awamutu hoianō ko Te rohe pōtae tōku tūrangawaewae. Kia ora !

I think this is a great kaupapa because it promotes our language and encourages all people to korero or waiata regardless of the individuals level of knowledge , for people begging there Reo Māori journey its a great way to participate and those who are intermediate speakers its an awesome opportunity for them to test there knowledge and continue to grow with that knowledge. For fluent speakers it's a great opportunity to tautoko and manaaki but most of all encourage others . Our language can be a normal feature in everyday life for the whole of New Zealand so my passion of te reo Māori encourages me to help the many great hard working kaiako , kuia and koroua bring back the normalization of our Reo. Nō reira , he mihi atu ki a koutou e tautoko ana i tēnei kaupapa . E mārama ai ki te reo Māori korerotia, E mōhio ai tātou ki te reo Māori, waiatatia E matatau ai tātou ki te reo Māori , matuarautia i a tātou mokopuna kia rere tonu atu te wairua o te reo o rātou kua tae tua o Paerau . - Nāku te rourou nāu te rourou ka ora ai te tangata.
