Kua tohua a Tākuta Sharples hei Tā mā te Kāhui o te Kuini

He manutaki tōrangapū Māori nō tērā tau ka heke, e whakarangatirahia ana mō āna mahi nui hei mema pāremata, otirā mā te iwi Māori.

Ko Tākuta Pita Sharples tērā kua tohua mai hei Tā o te Kāhui Hiranga o Aotearoa i roto i ngā tohu hōnore i te rā huritau o te Kuini o Ingarangi i te rā nei.

Nō tāna tohutanga ki te tohu CBE i te tau iwa tekau mō ana mahi mā te iwi Māori, i pīkau tonu ia i aua mahi i roto i āna mahi tōrangapū.

Kāre e mutu ana aua mahi, ahakoa tāna hekenga iho i te mahi tōrangapū i te tau ki muri nei, hāunga anō ngā utu.

Ko te poipioi i te toru tekau piriona o te ōhanga Māori, ko te oranga o ngā rangatahi Māori me te mana tiaki i te reo māori e titikaha tonu ana ki tōna ngākau. Āpiti atu, ko te puāwai tonutanga o tōna whānau i roto i ngā taonga pū a te Māori.
