It’s a great privilege to be in your beautiful country, and I look forward to deepening our friendship and delivering outcomes for all Tongans. Australia’s relationship with Tonga is built on mutual respect, shared values, and enduring people-to-people links – and a history of cooperation over 150 years. Economic recovery is so important to both of our countries – I know many people are doing it tough and still recovering from recent disasters. Building economic growth and improving opportunities is the cornerstone of Australia's support for Tonga. - Brek Batley, Australia's 19th High Commissioner to the Kingdom of Tonga.
