    Thank you Miriam and Olga... such wonderful history to learn here - especially as my father was born on Niue in 1898...and spoke Niuean fluently. We are family....

    Thank you for your service. The circumstances were unfortunate but your sacrifices should never be forgotten.
    And remember, while your ancestors didn't know King George, the King didn't know them.
    Glory and honour to the toa of Niue who stood with my ancestors!

      āe, let's never make that mistake again. As Uncle Bob said "Let the White man fight the white man war", they can keep their lies and empty promises

      It's a shame that the Niuean king allowed them to recruit Niueans...

      You guys were apart of the nz territory. You guys had to play your part for citizenship in nz. I'm not with that colonisers bs but that's how it had to go.
