Etymology
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanak
The word 'Kanak' is derived from kanaka maoli, a Hawaiian word which was at one time

applied indiscriminately by European explorers, traders and missionaries in Oceania to

any non-European Pacific islander.[7][8] Prior to European contact, there were no unified

states in New Caledonia, and no single self-appellation used to refer to its inhabitants.

    Oscar Temaru reminds me of Cesar Chevez and what he represented to his Chicano people

    Yeah but, Tamaainareo your picture looks like one of those invaders too!  Just having a bit of insane humor, for I have been on this Maoliworld for almost 5 days trying to stop the cyber space invasion of selling prescription drugs to our elderly and young people.

    Please do some oversight on Maoliworld and notice the problem and then send an email to Iakaika Hussey.

    Shutting down Maoliworld would be a sad thing and we should not let this happen.  

    Mahalo for the space to vent!!!

     I was just reading about Oscar Temaru the other day, and today I find you have a link about him.  He is a brother in the common fight against the occupations of our homeland(s). What a struggle we have as a people.  I hope to see the day, within my lifetime, when our lands are independent from the foreigners , who believe  that they have the right to rule over our hanau one.
