She doesn't want people to think that moko and tattoo are the same because they are two very different things. Moko has a greater meaning than just a regular tattoo.Moko reflected the Maori way of life everything was connected, religion, war, lovemaking and death. If people saw you on the street with moko they would think that you are just another freak with a bunch of tattoos but they don't know the real meaning of the markings.I think she is trying to make the people know the true meaning of moko, that they are not just a tattoo.
Maniapoto definatly used her opionion in her argument.I think her argument was very succsessful, she explains it very well. I think she helped people understand moko.
She doesn't think globalization ia good. She believes greatly in the Maori tribe and she thinks that globalization is bad for it. She uses the traditional music to explain their culture. She doesnt like the tading that is going on.
