San Francisco, USA : The main issue is whether or not "Black Thursday" was caused by the Democratic Movement and its leaders. To do this, Uata set out to complicate it by blaming another group of people, the Tongans overseas.

San Mateo, California, USA : There seems to be a repentant call from Temo leaders to urge the Tongan government to grant them dialogue and access in the reconstruction process.

USA : The morning of Black Thursday produced already tensed moments between two feuding ideals bursting at the seams with insecurity, mistrust, even anger and hatred. By the afternoon of Black Thursday the riot had taken its toll as cars were overturned, businesses burned down, and most tragically, lives lost. By sundown on Black Thursday, the government signed a petition agreeing to increase the People's representatives to 21, which is the desire of the people who had lived at Pangai for the past 11 months, and of course those for the democracy movement. If the government had agreed and signed the petition on White Wednesday, would Thursday need "Black" to describe itself? - Venisi Uata Premium content
