Abundant local food crops and seafood were displayed at the Ha’apai Royal Agricultural, Fisheries and Industrial Show in Pangai last week.
The people in the outer islands showed they are recovering from the devastation left by Tropical Cyclone Ian in January last year through their food crops, fish, seafood and handicrafts on show. Last year they were not able to take part.
King Tupou VI and Queen Nanasipau’u opened the Ha’apai Show at the Lea’aetohi grounds in Pangai where colourful traditional dance performances were held.
The Royal Tour of the national shows will conclude in Tongatapu this week on August 21-22.
