I have been totally engrossed in the daily transcripts regarding the Princess Ashika Royal Commission Inquiry. I have to commend Tonga for the complete transparency of the inquiry. Word for word testimony is available each day of the preceding days hearings. It certainly takes time to read the entire days events, however it is fascinating to be a witness to all that went wrong from the beginning of the purchase search for a replacement ferry in Tonga until the tragic ending as the Princess Ashika came to rest at the bottom of the sea.

Accidents seldom happen as a sole single act, accidents more likely are the results of a series of events leading up to the misfortune.
Fingers are pointing everywhere !!!!
The cast of characters; many of whom i work with at the ministry of Transportation and the complacency of Tongan "SAI PAE" culture .... clearly defines my experience of life in Tonga.
The hearings will be going on for at least 2 more months and the conclusions with not be announced until March of next year.
Certainly there are lessons to be learned, but one doesn't need to wait until the final report to learn from this tragic event .... i suggest everyone at least take a daily look at what is actually being said "under oath"
IT"S A FASCINATING READ"
peace out from the flip side
