Te Korimako O Taranaki FM
About the station
Te Korimako O Taranaki FM is the Māori tribal radio station of the Taranaki region in New Zealand. Founded in 1992 as a three-month pilot project by Dr. Huirangi Waikerepuru and Te Ururoa Flavell at the Taranaki Polytechnic in Bell Block, the station moved in 1993 to the Spotswood campus and established itself as the voice of the local iwi and hapū, including Taranaki, Ngāti Tama, Te Ātiawa and others.
The programming includes current news, community affairs, cultural content, and music genres such as R&B and reggae. The station preserves the unique mita o Taranaki, the dialect of the region, and serves as a platform for local voices and events. It broadcasts on 94.8 FM and 98.4 FM across Taranaki and is available online via stream.
As the tribal pulse of the community, Te Korimako celebrates Māori culture and language, with a focus on reporting from the rohe and about Te Tai Hauāuru.
