Arthur AnaeArthur Anae (1945 - ) is a former New Zealand politician. He was an MP from 1996 to 1999, and again from 2000 to 2002. He was part of the National Party, being its first Pacific Islander MP. Anae first entered Parliament in the 1996 elections as a list MP, but in the 1999 elections, missed out on returning to Parliament by a single place. When Don McKinnon resigned, however, Anae entered Parliament as his replacement. In the 2002 elections, Anae was ranked lowly on the party list, and was not returned to Parliament. His low ranking was criticised at the time by various Pacific Island groups, who said that National was ignoring the Pacific community. In October 2004 he was elected to the Manukau City Council from the Otara ward. Anae is Samoan, although was born in Fiji. Anae, Arthur Anae, Arthur Anae, Arthur
