However, these interactions led to land sales-related conflicts and there were constant tensions between the Maori and the Europeans. In addition, there emerged anepidemic of introduced diseases, and Maori found their selves in a very tricky situation which culminated in the dramatic decline of their population.Although there has been a steady fight to address the grievances of the Maori people, it is still apparent that they face challenging issues especially in health care provision.
