SUMMARY:

Many people living in New Zealand enjoyed good times in the decades following the Second World War. There were so many jobs , especially young Maori people wanted to be part of the action. Migration is the movement of people from one place to, either within a country or between countries. Maori moved for a lot of reasons mostly because of the jobs in the city. The Maori people were low paid for their jobs so the government set up training schemes so that they can qualify with their skills in work. Many Maori people liked being security, dancing, live music, and meeting new people.

    Summary .2

    Many people that were living in NZ had great times in the generation following the second world war. The economy grew really quick and there were plenty of jobs that people could take place with, mostly the maori’s wanted to take part with. Some people even left their home and moved closer to the city to work there. They were paid on low but they were happy and grateful for everything, by 1971, almost three quarters of the maori population lived in town,maori people are still doing traditional moari cultural.` By the end of the 1960’s maori had the right to debate and take action on key issues, including treaty and te reo moari. They purposely spoke their culture to assimilate and adopt the European ways.
