Maori members have used the traditional Haka ceremony to voice their opposition to a bill aimed at reinterpreting a 184-year-old treaty between the British and the Maori. The bill is considered controversial by the Maori because it could threaten the rights of the country's indigenous people. They made the move to show their opposition to the bill.
