It is quite surprising and very interesting to find an overseas PR firm from Fiji sending out media release on the view of King George Tupou V of Tonga, and his strong belief that Tonga's Constitution is the Keystone of the Kingdom's peace and stability, bearing the Lord Chamberlain's insignia. In the U.S. we call this the Royal Spin, in trying to counter all the bad and negative press since his father died. - M. T. Tuaileva

I am not sure how many economists with a knowledge of Tonga'’s economy can share your views in your Editorial Comments on 14 Sep 2006, of the above title Tupou IV led Tonga toward a modern economy. I certainly do not, but I realise you were operating from a different set of assumptions, so I will not be making extensive comments on your Editorial. - Apelu Tielu

Thank you for keeping us in the picture over the last few weeks. We continue to be in awe of what is possible today and your efforts at keeping us informed has helped to shape the thinking behind this short note. That we are revelling in the wonders of a world we never thought we would see in our lifetime was brought home to me even more when I was able to watch the three-hour formal burial ceremony of the late king at Mala'ekula from the comfort of an air-conditioned Auckland office , while thinking back to 1965 when I too, was at the same place and at a similar ceremony. - Sefita A Hao'uli

I wanted to share with you my first meeting with the late King of Tonga. I was so humbled to see the King come out to meet the Tongan community in his pajamas and slippers. He actually met and shook the hands of everyone that was present there, all the children and adults, some 50 people altogether. I will forever remember this occasion because it showed what humility and simplicity meant. -Dr. Henry Ivarature

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.
