Coming up on Te Karere... An apology to the PM! Kingi Taurua hits back at Te Ti Marae for not allowing Bill English to speak at Waitangi Day celebrations. A Maori housing organisation says Maori may have to consider moving out of Auckland as they are being priced out of the rental housing market. Archbishop Brown Turei arrives at Whangara, before he's taken to his final resting place. 11 January 2017 Due to the live nature of Te Karere, some segments will not be subtitled. Tena koutou katoa, and welcome to Te Karere. While Prime Minister Bill English is set to boycott the traditional welcome at Te Ti Waitangi Marae in the lead up to Waitangi Day, a prominent figure of the marae has had a change of heart. Te Ti kaumatua Kingi Taurua now agrees that the marae protocols of not allowing the PM to speak is disrespectful. Harata Brown has more. We're unable to provide subtitles. Harata Brown, Te Karere. The body of Archbishop Brown Turei has arrived at Whangara Marae where many iwi of Te Tai Rawhiti paid their respects and spoke of a man who lead with humility. The good shepherd is brought among his fold of the East Coast. Today Ngati Konohi host the deceased and his family before he heads home. Throughout his entire ministry his humility and compassion for others from all walks of life was evident to all. Don Tamihere is waiting to fill the office of bishop for the East Coast. Ngati Kahungunu came to acknowledge his tireless service amongst them. His work took him to the Bay of Plenty, Hawke's Bay and here in the East Coast, it is fitting for him to return to the place where his work started out in the Anglican Church. The body of the archbishop will be taken to his home marae Kauaetangohia tomorrow. His funeral service will be held there this Saturday at 11am. Irena Smith, Te Karere. A Maori housing organisation says Maori may have to consider moving out of Auckland as they are being priced out of the rental housing market. Auckland rental prices look to be on the rise. Housing experts predict that due to the low supply and high demand in the housing market at the moment, it will get harder for low income families to get their in foot in the door of the rental market. New homes are going up every day, but Maori may have to look to the regions for a roof over their head. Mangere locals say Housing New Zealand properties are the only homes they can afford. The Auckland Property Investors Association says there is an undersupply of 40,000 properties in the city. This will see rents rise. Te Matapihi spokesperson Patrick Gemmell says housing costs will put more financial strain on whanau. Experts predict rental rises will start kicking in next month. Ripeka Timutimu, Te Karere. After the break, an aunty and niece combination have joined the moko the world campaign and share their story with us. A post being shared on Facebook recently concerning diabetics highlights the fact that you shouldn't believe everything you read online. Hania Douglas explains. Don't believe everything you see on the internet, warns online expert Karaitiana Taiuru. The issue arose after a Facebook post concerning a cut in govt funding for diabetic blood test strips. In an email to Te Karere, Diabetes NZ says that they are not aware of any recent changes, and that the current system will continue. However, they did share concerns over the fact that the message has spread to people whose lives depend on these resources. But how do you identify a fake? And if a post on health issues concerns you, wait till you hear it from the horse's mouth, or at least a doctor's. Hania Douglas, Te Karere. An aunty and niece have joined the moko the world campaign. Sarah and Chantelle Waititi of Te Whanau o Kauaetangohia speak to us about their journey of getting their moko kauae at the recent mokopapa wananga in December last year. Te Okiwa McLean with the story. A young face beyond her years. I've wanted my moko for a long time. It's about honouring whanau, hapu and iwi. These two women were part of the 17 recipients of moko at the recent mokopapa wananga at Kauaetangohia Marae in December last year. Chantelle says she's paving the way for the next generation. It's making it easier for my children so they can have a moko some day in the future. For this descendant of Kauaetangohia, this is an honour for her grandfather. He died four years ago. He was a rangatira in our hapu. He loved people of all backgrounds. I want to follow his example so my hapu, my whanau, Kauaetangohia and my iwi Te Whanau-a-Apanui can be successful. They also feature as members in the champion kapa haka team, Te Whanau a Apanui, and they urge more youth to get more involved in the art of moko. You should follow my example if you want to have a moko. Don't just think about it, do it. If you love Maoridom and Maori culture, you need to get it. It's a beautiful thing to wear. These two highly believe in the saying 'Moko The World'. Inscribe yourself, so you have a friend in death. Te Okiwa McLean, Te Karere. Funfest charitable trust was formed in 2002 with the purpose of creating a free event for families in Auckland. The focus was to bring families and communities together in a positive environment. Despite the event officially starting tomorrow, today 2000 special needs tamariki and their families were invited to experience the event before the rest of the public. Here's Tamati Rimene-Sproat. A hope to have a fun day. And a fun holiday in South Auckland. A special day has been reserved for these special children. Today 2000 kids and their families were invited to Funfest a day early to experience the event before anyone else. This is the second year the special day has run, an idea that was inspired by the struggle of taking special kids to events like this. And it's a free event. The focus of the event is putting smiles on these kids' faces but is also a chance for these parents to relax and let their kids have fun. Doors open to the wider public tomorrow, but for today the main aim is today is to make these kids feel happy. Tamati Rimene-Sproat, Te Karere. Let's take another look at today's top stories. An apology to the PM. Kingi Taurua hits back at Te Tii Marae for not allowing Bill English to speak at Waitangi Day celebrations. Arch Bishop Brown Turei arrives at Whangara, before he's taken to his final resting place. A Maori housing organisation says Maori may have to consider moving out of Auckland as they are being priced out of the rental housing market.
