Biography
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.
