It looks fantastic

Re: Apia Water project, a look to the future 

Fantastic. It looks absolutely stunning. 

However, I hope the independence celebrations return to Tiafau malae. 

It is far too windy at Eleele Fou and there is not enough space. 

Tiafau is where it all started in 1962 and that is where it should return. 

Tiafau is where the modern history of Samoa and the formation of the country came about stretching back to the wars and colonisation of the 19th century. 

It is the birthplace of the modern state of Samoa. Matagialalua is fine for Teuila and other events but for Independence day; it is nothing but reclaimed land. 

It has no history.
