The power poles erected by the electricity provider on the roads at Holopeka in Liffuka, Haʻapai would be removed the Governor for Haʻapai has told Kaniva News today.
Governor Moʻale Fīnau said he met with Tonga Power manager and project manager and they decided to remove the poles that erected almost in the middle of the road.
Finau said this means the power line will be connected without poles in that particular area.
Kaniva understands the poles were erected after the Ministry of Land and Survey’s surveyors found the road where the poles were erected on cut through a tax allotment.

Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
