Saturday 28 February 2015: Up to 30,000 performers, supporters and audience members are expected next week at North Hagley Party for Te Matatini. But not everyone can get to Christchurch, so organisers have turned to technology to allow others to share in the spectacle that is the national Maori performing arts competition. In Korero Mai Ki Ahau on Saturday we talk to operations guru Willie Te Aho about internet streaming the festival to whanau in Aotearoa and overseas.

Sunday 01 March 2015: Prime Minister John Key has committed New Zealand troops for a training mission in Iraq. The decision has created debate up and down the motu. So Sunday, Eruera Morgan talks with Vietnam veteran and RSA spokesperson Miki Apiti about the deployment.

Korero Mai Ki Ahau a half hour features programme every Saturday and Sunday from noon, which takes an in – depth look at issues affecting te ao Maori. Totally in te reo Maori brought to you by Waatea News in association with Te Mangai Paho.
