Subject: Official Information request - HAO'ULI, Mr Sefita 'Alofi

 

Dear Arts Council of New Zealand Toi Aotearoa,

 

I noted:

For services to Tongan and Pacific communities

 

Mr Sefita Hao’uli has been influential in the development of Pacific
broadcasting in New Zealand for more than 30 years.

 

Mr Hao’uli became a journalist in the 1980s, where he was instrumental in
the formation of a community trust to take ownership of the Pacific radio
frequency. He served as Chair and led the radio station to become familiar
amongst the community, providing information on Pacific Island affairs.
Radio station 531pi was launched, broadcasting 24-hours on air, a change
from four hours a week. He was instrumental in the launch of a Tongan
language newspaper and managed the relationship between the 2,000 Tongan
workers under the Recognised Seasonal Employer scheme and the Tongan
government for 12 years. He was Chairman of the Pacific Island Committee
of Creative New Zealand, Board member of the Arts Board with Creative New
Zealand and a member of the Minister for Pacific Peoples Advisory Council.
He has been a key mentor and leader in the Pacific community, helping
lead, provide advice and mobilise initiatives to improve the lives of
Tongans and the wider Pacific communities. Mr Hao’uli was recognised as
the 2021 Tonga Language Champion and received a Special Recognition Award
from the New Zealand Tonga Business Council for his dedicated years of
service.

 

Can you please let me know what is the term of reference of your "Arts
Board" with Creative New Zealand. Also who sit on the art board besides Mr
Sefita. The pay rate of your board member.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

john luke
