The significance of Piggy's plea to join the expedition is that it illustrates his desire to be a part of the group.... he wants to belong. Although Piggy has been a great asset to Ralph in terms of organization and planning, he is still the butt of jokes and ridicule. In essence, Piggy wants to be respected.
