Council shows true Colours
By
Zena Tamanui
Because of the lack of financial support from the Manukau City Council, Te Puke o Tara may have to close. It is interesting to note that this centre which caters for a predominantly Polynesian Community gets far less than the more affluent Pakuranga suburb. Te Puke o Tara got a grant amounting to 4-sths of a teachers salary to pay its director, when the council pays salaries for directors of other Community centres. Is the Council prejudiced? Is it its wish to increase the crime rate in Otara? What will hap-
pen to Otara’s $380,000 dream? Any comments please write to: Zena Tamanui, P.O. Box 704, Auckland.
