Education
The other two challenges which are facing Tonga at the moment, the King stressed, are the status of education for our children and the state of our economy.

He reminded Tongans that at the turn of the last century Tonga was the envy of the Pacific in the field of Education, but we have slipped behind.

He urged government not to forget the aims of Tonga’s education system.
“We require international standards of education, recognized internationally.
“It should be the responsibility of Government to ensure that those educated in accordance with the Constitution are employable internationally. We should not limit our children’s employability to only the South Pacific.
“With 2,000 odd school leavers annually, we must seriously consider their gainful employment.”
