Editor,

I would like to make this corrections to the article appears on Matangi Tonga. Please see message attached below, "excepting for the Talanoa meeting in Seattle which has been cancelled."

The NCPR committee came last Saturday to keep the original plan that was scheduled for Seattle meeting. 'Aisea Taumoepeau & Fatai Pale held the meetings followed after the community prayer by all different faiths in the Seattle area who came to mourn the loss of Prince Tuipelehake and Princess Kaimana.

Seattle Times-Sunday 09, 2006
More than 100 Puget Sound-area Tongans filed into the basement of St. Edward's Parish Hall Saturday night to mourn the deaths of Tongan Prince Tu'ipelehake and Princess Kaimana ...— and then to hold the political meeting they had been scheduled to attend.

NCPR continues Talanoa
Sione Tekiteki, of the NCPR said today that as scheduled, 'Aisea Taumoepeau and Fatai Pale who were to accompany Prince Tu'ipelehake on their Talanoa meetings in the USA were continuing with their meetings, "excepting for the Talanoa meeting in Seattle which has been cancelled."

I coordinated the meetings and would like to inform the public with correct information.

Sincerely,

Fatima 'Aho

Director of Voice of the South Pacific
