Between The Lines
DELEGATES
The second arrival of a foreign delegation got a mixed reaction from members of one of the ruling party’s largest social media pages. Are we being invaded, one asked.
PULL PLUG
Remember last Monday’s cancelled SNPF press conference? Word is the powers that be called it off due to public condemnation of the fund's loan policy cancellation plan.
APOLOGY
A Cabinet Minister had to apologise for the 3-hour delay in the inter-island ferry service last Friday. But heard it was a colleague who ordered the ship’s crew to wait.
CONCERT
Motherland Samoa concert’s VIP packages went for $300–$500 on Saturday. But not all ticket buyers got the merchandise as advertised. Must be the rain?
BUSINESS
The concert wooed families from abroad. Most arrived Saturday, booked into a hotel, went to Apia Park, and flew out Sunday. Their families found out after they left!
MORE WEIGH
Another airline will join Air NZ and weigh passengers in its international sector. This time it will be travellers who travel using the Honolulu-Pago route.
