PROJECTS

The absence of the boss and chairperson is causing havoc at the tourism body. Some aid-funded projects have been stalled and pushed back.

BACKLASH

The appointment of a foreigner who is a Samoan citizen in an acting role on a board has had some backlash. The comments are definitely nothing close to PG-rated.

COMPLAINT

A complaint has been lodged with the law association against a lawyer. The legal eagle is one of those who have fired defamatory shots at the appointment on the board.

LOYAL

A shop owner was heartbroken when he discovered that his two trusted employees had been stealing frozen meat and other items for some time. It is hard to find loyal employees.

TEAMWORK

A video of a burglary in Afega that happened last month emerged, showing the teamwork between thieves. Two stay as lookouts while one breaks into the house.

VIOLENT

The frequency of violent crimes is more than concerning. A masked man entered a shop in Faleata and took a swing with a machete, luckily, no one was hurt.
