Patuki Isaako

Patuki Isaako is a Tokelauan political figure.

Background and political role

Isaako is from Atafu. He was the head of government of Tokelau (Ulu o Tokelau) from February 2004 to February 2005.

Issues

In May 2004, the United Nations Special Committee on Decolonialization held a seminar to discuss independence for Tokelau from New Zealand. Isaako opposed the idea, mainly because Tokelau may be too small and undeveloped to function on its own.
