Between the Lines
ROAD RAGE
Keep the road rage down. With all the traffic and the heat, there have been altercations between drivers however there was one between a passenger and driver as they ran over a road island on Saturday night.
LEARN CHINESE
It would pay off to learn Chinese. As the Chinese airline looks to be on its way to getting a license to fly multiple flights, there will be a need for Chinese-speaking Samoans.
HOLIDAY HANGOVER
Civil servants across the country are returning to work today. There is going to be more than a few sick leaves. The condition would be ‘holiday hangover.’
NEW DIPLOMAT
There is a new Chinese Ambassador to Samoa who landed on the first day of the year. Welcome to Samoa, Fei Mingxing and farewell to Chao Xiaoliang who was with the nation through difficult times.
METH OFFER
A scribe was lost for words when during an evening walk through town, a stranger offered to sell him methamphetamine. Being a salesman that he was, even offered a sample toke. The situation is troubling.
EDUCATION
School will be starting soon. Are there any plans to subsidise costs for children who are living in poverty or are we going to witness more child vendors?
