Petition: Cultural equality in the names of our country and its places
A national petition launched recently asks our Government to ensure cultural equality in the naming of our country, its regions and local places. It also asks for English and te rē Moriori to be recognised as official languages. Only te reo Māori and sign language have official status now.
The petition offers fair-minded Kiwis a say in the current debate over New Zealand's name. Your voice is not being heard enough. Te Pāti Māori and NZ First petitions on the same issue offer only ethnically divisive options.
If you care about cultural equality and inclusion, for lasting social harmony in our country, please sign this petition. And please recommend it to your friends and family.
