“ This is a sure sign that for the Government to function properly Tonga need to bring in people of non Tongan background like in the days when palangi expatriate were heads of department and locals as assistant . Some may say that is being prejudice NO , in all honesty when foreigners were on contract to the Government every department ran like a well oiled machine , and because they are from abroad they have no ties with the locals therefor no nepotism and none of the sniping , and accusation , mismanaging of public funds and the carrying on that's going on today . to prove my point , as soon as the Government started handing over management to locals to take charge that section starts going down , and why do I say that ? ;how did that happen .? because one has only to look at the ruins at Haveluloto to prove I'm right TONGA COPRA BOARD , TONGA CONSTRUCTION AND COMMODITY STORE the DESICCATED coconut factory went belly up THE PACIFIC NAVIGATION COMPANY LTD all gone how did that happen?because locals took over and instead of doing something to rejuvenate those workplaces they run it to the ground .and we wonder why Tonga is still not fully recovered from the last hurricane ; because people in charge of hurricane relief are guilty of robbing and not bothering to do their utmost to get things moving due to corrupt practices , nepotism and a lot else we do need expatriate as department heads under Tongan Ministers like the old times . We have Judges in the justice system the Police commander they are all from abroad , why not put one in charge of hurricane relief as director responsible for all aspect pertaining to the reconstruction of houses to replace the ones that was destroyed . Start with families that are vulnerable still living in tents look after the people first , fix up drainage system to get rid of the mud and stagnant water in ditches so as to dry the ground for the children , Government infrastructure reconstruction comes second , whatever Government decides , at least do something for the people YOU promised so much ! you'd do for them .There was so much AID monies pouring in that the minister in charge of hurricane disaster relief pockets must be bulging .??? . ”
