Cook Islands

Poko Ingram

A few of us are watchdogs. I am a great believer in running an honest government, a government who treats their people equally, regardless of their colour, religion, and political affiliation. I am also a great believer in the United Nations Human Rights charter, freedom of speech, worship, freedom of movement etc. So I wish to ask you as women, to come together and to work together for the benefit and harmony of our people in each of our countries.
