'Etita, Fakatulou atu mo e Fu'u Toa-ko Hangai Tokelau, Loto Tatau mo e Fangatapu. - Pulotu 'Ilavalu, Kolofo'ou,

I was first appalled and outraged by the very insensitive and disrespectful remarks by Mr. Laws concerning our beloved Monarch His Late Majesty King Taufa'ahau Tupou IV. However, I now find it rather amusing how Mr. Laws has exposed his ignorance and bigotry for all to see.

The new king of Tonga, King George Tupou V today announced that he will dispose of all his commercial interests in the kingdom.

When Taufa'ahau Tupou IV came to the Tongan throne on July 4, 1967, for most Tongans it was the dawn of a new era. The new king, at 49, epitomised what Tongans of the 1960s perceived to be a perfect 20th century monarch. Editor's Comment, by Pesi Fonua.

Thousands of Tongans are lining the roads on Tongatapu as the funeral procession of His Late Majesty King Taufa'ahau Tupou IV passes by on its way to the Royal Palace where he will lie in State for five days.

The state funeral of Tonga's late King Taufa‘’ahau Tupou IV, on Tuesday September 19, will be attended by the New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark, the Maori King, and both the Governor Generals of New Zealand and Australia.

Tonga's late King Taufa‘ahau Tupou IV will return home tomorrow. Upon the arrival of Tupou IV's body at the Fua...’amotu International Airport tomorrow at 3.30 pm Tongans will begin six-days and six-nights of a State Funeral.
