The
Press of 3 October carried yet another story on Ngai Tahu’s continuing
successes, this time focussing on its property developments at Wigram Skies,
the former air force base.
The
CEO of Ngai Tahu Property Limited, Tony Sewell, in responding to people who
criticise Ngai Tahu’s income tax exempt status as a charity, stated that he
thinks that Maori in New Zealand are easy to criticise for being successful,
and in so doing misses the point altogether.
