Rosario

Kei te whakaatu te whakaahua tuarua i te tohu e mea ana 'Malvinas, por siempre argentinas' ('No Argentina ngā moutere Falklands mo ake tonu atu'). Te mana...

Ka kimi i te whare i whānau ai a ‘Che’ Guevara, na, te mutunga ake he whare moni tiaki! Ko te ‘che’ he kīanga argentina (he rite te whakahua ki tā te Māori), koina i tapaina ai ki taua ingoa e ōna hoa.
