The last time I stayed in in the kingdom of Tonga longer than the usual return for putu "funeral" or other famili obligations, i always cherished the neighbourly " malo si'i ngaue" or "malo tau lava" greetings from the locals after a hard day at work...
This friendly islander gesture was and i hope still is, a cultural more that will never be lost...it definitely relieved stress levels !
