Between The Lines

IRONY

Have to wonder if a Cabinet Minister’s plea to address illegal fishing resonated. His foreign conference host is always accused of rampant illegal fishing! 

FAUTASI

Yesterday’s fautasi regatta captivated everyone, even officials attending a conference switched from the presentation to a live stream of the event!

AGELESS

One of the top paddlers in the victorious Tolotolo o le Tamauli team is 62 years of age. His participation confirmed that age is nothing but a number. 

SMOKERS

Tolotolo o le Tamauli’s paddler-smokers were banned from lighting up for 5 weeks due to training. Yesterday, their supporters threw them packets of cigarettes to celebrate! 

MADNESS

There was madness on the road. A white-colored pasi o vaa (bus), packed with fautasi race fans in a rush to get to Mulifanua, almost crashed into two vehicles. 

AIRPORT

After over 3 years of silence, the Fagalii airport will roar back to life coming Monday for Pago travelers, to signal the airport's third reopening in two decades.
