“ Regardless of the circumstances leading to the cancellation by Tonga to host the Pacific GAMES 2019 , the damage is done .One can only speculate , how on earth did the Premier in his wisdom managed to get his government in to this predicament is beyond comprehension.This is a sure indication of this governments lack of foresight and ability to find solution to problems facing the country.One might wonder how did it get to this stage .According to the Games Council Chief executive Andrew Minogue they were willing to tone down all expenses so Tonga can still host the 2019 games.What reason did the government have for refusing ?. Now Tonga is facing a fine of $US 3 million to payback to both the council and TASANOC for breach of contract. Wouldn't it be better if Tonga went ahead with the games irrespective of the odds of whether she will make a profit or not, but at least she won't be in the situation shes in now. But to bring us back to the reason , why the Premier decided mid year to cancel the games ?, was it because of some personal issue between him and the previous government, because it was the previous government that agreed to host the PACIFIC GAMES in Tonga , but they were ousted from power, and his party under his leadership took over and this is the result. Tonga ! look around you look at how ineffectual this government has been, look at the mess the country's in, look for any improvement in the day to day running of government anything worthwhile that they've achieved since taking office nothing ! 'cause they are too busy witch hunting , to concentrate on governing the country and doing it for the benefit of all .. Something must be done by someone in power to curb the debt this country is drowning in , Tonga is floundering about in unpaid loans STOP LOOK WALK ?. ”
