Kalafi launches second book: In Search of the Friendly Islands

Pacific Media Centre, 23 March 2009

The “courageous” book by Taimi ‘o Tonga publisher Moala - arguably the kingdom’s most prolific media figure - was launched at the Onehunga Community Centre and Library in Auckland on Saturday. Titled In Search of the Friendly Islands, the new book explores the dilemmas, paradoxes and challenges of modern Tonga. The event brought together various Pasifika media personalities and members of the Tongan community. It also marked the launch of Pasifika Foundation Press, which published the book along with AUT University’s PMC.
