Tongan diaspora get a say

Tongans living outside Tonga get a chance this weekend to have their say about what sort of democracy should prevail in their home country.

A national dialogue on democracy and development is being held in Mangere in South Auckland on Saturday.

Organiser Malakai Koloamatangi said it followed on from a similar event he organised in Tonga just ahead of a snap election in 2017.

He said the Tongan diaspora was very keen to have its say over what is happening back in Tonga.
