As for the future, Bruce Yang is actually very optimistic. "This country has the ability to wake up to its own mistakes, and is prepared to look squarely at the issue or racial discrimination." He points out that in ten years of land wars with the Maoris in the last century, the British killed large numbers of Maoris, and designated 1.2 million hectares of land as "military immigration zones."
對未來，楊緒南倒是很樂觀，「這國家有反省能力，願意正視種族歧視的問題」，他指出，過去英國人與毛利人歷時十年的土地戰爭，不但殺死了許多毛利人，還將土著一百二十萬公頃的土地劃為「軍事移民區」。
