I le mae'a ai o le vaiaso o le sao ina ua fulisia le atunu'u i le Leai, ua latou faaalia ai e auala i se tusi faalaua'itele lo latou lagona faanoanoa ma o'otia i le te'ena o le vala'au mo se leo o tagata muamua e fautuaina le palemene tele i mata'upu e fitoitonu i lo latou saogalemu ma le soifuaga manuia.
O se vaega o le tusi o loo faapea mai:
"In refusing our peoples' right to be heard on matters that affect us, Australia chose to make itself less liberal and less democratic. It is clear no reform of the constitution that includes our peoples will ever succeed. This is the bitter lesson from 14 October."
I le faitauga mulimuli o le palota le referendum, o loo iloa ai le palota o le 60.69 pasene o tagata i le Leai, ae 39.31 pasene i le Ioe.
Na faia'ina le mau i setete uma o le atunu'u atoa ai ma le Northern Territory, ae na o le A-C-T na manumalo ai le Ioe.
Na saunoa le palemia, Anthony Albanese, ua ia lagonaina le faanoanoa i ta'ita'i ma tagata muamua na tuleia le mau i le Ioe, peita'i ua ia taliaina le faai'uga ma o tu ia ma aga faatemokarasi.
"It is a difficult time for Indigenous Australians, but we respect the outcome in our democracy, and I have done that. What we will continue to do (is) we'll continue to work on closing the gap."
O seisi vaega o le tusi o loo faitauina:
"The truth is that the majority of Australians have committed a shameful act whether knowingly or not, and there is nothing positive to be interpreted from it."
Na ta'ua ai fo'i na matua faigata ona manumalo le mau ina ua te'ena e le ta'ita'i o le itu-agai Peter Dutton ma le ta'ita'i o le Nationals, David Littleproud.
"The support for the referendum collapsed from the moment Liberal and National Party leaders, Mr Dutton and Mr Littleproud, chose to oppose the Voice to Parliament proposal after more than a decade of bipartisan support."
Na faitioina ai fo'i ma le tele o faamatalaga sese ma le favaea na faia e nisi e tulei ai le mau i le Leai, ma o ni faamatalaga na latou faaigoaina i le tusi, na oso ai se galu lolo o lafoga ma manatu faailoga lanu, "unleashed a tsunami of racism".
E le gata i lea na faitioina ai nisi o faalapotopotoga faasalalau i le faasalalauina o faamatalaga le moni ma le faavaea.
"We know that the mainstream media failed our people, favouring 'a false sense of balance' over facts."
Na saunoa le tamaita'i o Auntie Janine Yeatman mai North Queensland i le ABC Radio, na te le taliaina le finauga na ta'atele i na faapea mai o se mau e vaevaeina ai le atunu'u. Na ia finau o le mau o se taumafaiga e faamaopoopo le atunuu ma aloa'ia le tulaga tonu o tagata muamua.
"A lot of people saying there wasn't enough time, there wasn't enough explanation around Australia to explain what this referendum was all about. But the majority of us here at Yarrabah, we understood it. It wasn't to divide us! No way! It was to unite us. And also to get that bloody recognition of We are the First Nations people of this country."
