'Etita,

Ko e ki'i fakalavelave atu pe 'ena ki he talanga 'oku fai ki he 'etau fakalelei fonua.

Laumalie 'o e Tonga

Tonga is the heart of the Pacific. It springs from our rich heritage as a pioneer in an Island where 'ULUNGAANGA FAKAFONUA plays a vital role in the life of every individual. Throughout the islands, the 'ULUNGAANGA FAKAFONAU defines the unique character of Tonga. Our fun loving, energetic, and adventurous personality flows from this spirit, as does our belief in serving our community. From ANGA FAKA'APA'APA comes the pride, passion, and perseverance that sets Tonga apart.

Resourcefulness

Our bias towards action and our readiness to adapt to change and to master difficult challenges exemplify the "can do" heritage of Tonga. We embrace an atmosphere where hard work, initiative, and family ties are a tradition, and where creativity and innovation flourish.

Integrity

Our actions will reflect our absolute commitment to ethical and honest behavior. When faced with uncertainty we will always use our best judgment to do the "right thing."

Professionalism

As proven professionals, we each bring a high level of individual skill,

expertise, and commitment to our country. We take great pride in the fact that our individual and collective accomplishments have earned broad respect and a reputation for safe, reliable, quality service.

Caring

Caring about and helping people is the soul of Tonga regardless of status. We regularly go the extra mile to help our families, our community, and each other with friendliness, caring, and genuine concern. We believe our lives are enriched by individual acts of kindness and compassion.
