Honolulu, Hawaii,USA : The swift response from the Press Secretary and Political adviser to the Prime Minister Mr. Lopeti Senituli, was quite surprising in light of all the world media zeroing in on the result of the final report from Tonga Parliament's National Committee For Political Reform, (NCPR). I was flatter that he only picked one issue to challenge mentioning on my LTE, and that is, the number of elected members of parliament MP by the people count. But before I get to my response to the PS, I'd like to pay compliment to where credit is due. - M. T. Tuaileva -

The new trend for youngsters now, are Internet cafes. Soon it will be the iPods and computer games. It is very hard to imagine, Tongans accepting these new technology when a few years back it was looked down upon being "From overseas?" and bringing into Tonga trends of the 80's which was not accepted in Tongan culture then. - William Mariner -
