Between the Lines
ON THE RUN
A police chase ensued in Vaitele when a suspect involved in a recent robbery and stabbing ran away from police. The suspect is still at large, and public information is urged.
TREES
It would be good to know where the EPC and the MNRE will replant the trees that were cut in Faleuta to make way for the power lines. Did anyone do a count on how many trees were cut?
MYSTERY
It is a mystery how the 58-year-old man from Lepea disappeared into the sea while fishing from a location not new to him. His body has not been found.
LUMP SUM
The budget will be announced later this month, and do not be surprised if the remaining $2 million from the $5 million for the district grant could come out in a lump sum.
MISSING
Another missing child. This time, an eight-year-old girl from Toamua was reported missing. She was last seen on Monday. The number of missing children is a serious matter.
SWIMMING
Swimming needs to be introduced as part of the school curriculum. The number of people who do not know how to swim is shocking.
