Marewa Paranihi created our Ngati Kahungunu Iwi Incorporated Registration Database around 8 years ago. We desperately needed a database that would cater for our needs and Marewa created it from scratch. Using the little information we gave him, he created an awesome database that holds information that can be easily updated. It pumps out reports in seconds and holds an extensive amount of information in a nice tidy, easy maintenance database.
