Auckland District Police District Commander Superintendent Karyn Malthus and other senior police officers and members of the Asian Advisory Board (the first and therefore the oldest in the country) hosted a private dinner to Inspector Joe Tipene who leaves his current post as Maori Responsive Manager shortly.
He moves to the Eastern Headquarters as the Area Prevention Manager within the District based in Mt Wellington.

In the third picture, Inspector Joe Tipene is responding to the speeches with his wife Melissa Tipene.
