Su'a William Sio: A man of many titles<br />
South Aucklanders know Su’a William<br />
Sio as the MP for Mangere, but<br />
there’s more to him than his parliamentary<br />
duties.<br />
In late October, he had bestowed<br />
upon him the title of paramount chief<br />
in his village of Letaupe, Matatufu in<br />
Lotofaga in the south-eastern part of<br />
Upolu, Samoa.<br />
About 50 members of his family from<br />
New Zealand and Australia gathered<br />
with those in Samoa for the official<br />
announcement.<br />
Through a ceremony which included<br />
the Council of Chiefs and orators in<br />
the village of Letaupe and the district<br />
of Lotofaga, his father declared that<br />
he would bequeath the title of ‘Aupito’<br />
upon his son. His new name is Aupito<br />
Tofae Su’a William Sio.<br />
According to his own rough estimate<br />
Sio says he is the “15th person to<br />
hold the Aupito title since it was first<br />
bestowed in the late 1600s”.<br />
“It’s been an emotional journey for<br />
me and my family”.<br />
“My father Aupito Pupu Sio has been<br />
the paramount chief of our extended<br />
family when his brother who held the<br />
Aupito title before him died in 1980s,”<br />
says Sio.<br />
Aupito Pupu Sio had been a South<br />
Auckland taxi driver since the closure<br />
of factories in the 1980s.<br />
“He is probably the most senior<br />
Su’a William Sio being appointed the new chief in Samoa.<br />
member of existing shareholders of<br />
the South Auckland Taxi Association<br />
today. We have decided he should<br />
now retire and concentrate on his<br />
health,” Sio continues.<br />
The transfer of the Aupito title to his<br />
son also means the transfer of all authorities,<br />
rights and privileges vested<br />
in this Aupito title pertaining to all<br />
land holdings of those in his family<br />
and from his village.<br />
This process called “fa’aui le ula”<br />
back centuries.”<br />
Sio’s 18-year-old Joan will also have<br />
tasks to undertake as the daughter<br />
of the high chief and so she decided<br />
to have her legs tattooed as tradition<br />
dictates.<br />
“My youngest daughter in preparation<br />
for ceremonial duties that are often<br />
performed by a daughter of a paramount<br />
chief such as ‘siva’ (dance);<br />
‘palu ava’ (preparation of the kava)<br />
and taligamalo (hosting visitors) decided<br />
to have her legs tattooed with a<br />
‘malu’ (a woman’s traditional tattoos)<br />
last week by a traditional Samoan<br />
tattooist last week in Auckland.”<br />
He says his priority is to ensure that<br />
he can ensure his cultural values are<br />
passed down to the next generation.<br />
“I want our children in New Zealand,<br />
Australia and the United States to<br />
never forget their roots and to understand<br />
the core values of the Samoan<br />
or the transfer of a title from a living culture – family, education, faith; the<br />
chief to his son rarely occurs. importance of serving others - especially<br />
the most vulnerable in our fami-<br />
Sio says the title holds responsibilities<br />
for him overseas and here in lies and communities.”<br />
New Zealand.<br />
Next year he plans to take his nephews<br />
and nieces to Samoa and begin<br />
“I have become the head/leader/<br />
Chief of our extended family with authority<br />
over all [their] land holdings “That way they can feel a sense of<br />
planting on their lands.<br />
and peoples in Samoa, New Zealand connection, as well as to learn about<br />
and Australia.<br />
our lands, culture, language and history,”<br />
he says.<br />

Samoa to allow left-hand<br />

Left-hand drive vehicles will<br />
soon be allowed back into<br />
Samoa.<br />
Left-hand drive vehicles<br />
were banned when the<br />
country moved from driving<br />
on the right-hand side of the<br />
road to the left in 2009.<br />
But the Samoa Observer reported<br />
that the Land Transport<br />
Authority would allow<br />
them again from 1 April, but<br />
only as private vehicles.<br />
The authority’s road use<br />
manager, Tamaseugogo<br />
Tauiliili Leo Bartley, said<br />
there would be strict conditions<br />
and only 100 left-hand<br />
drive vehicles will be allowed<br />
into the country per month.<br />
The rule change will again<br />
see vehicles able to be imported<br />
from neighbouring<br />

as Hawaii and the mainland<br />

Samoa’s first Media Council has been established<br />
after more than a decade.<br />
The local Journalist Association of Samoa<br />
had sought assistance from the British<br />
Thompson Foundation to draft a National<br />
Media Codes and Ethics.<br />
The first meeting of the council on Friday<br />
accepted changes and amendments to<br />
the codes of ethics which covers editorial,<br />
news, advertising and content management.<br />
The media council consists of 15 members<br />
including five media representatives and is<br />
chaired by a prominent lawyer, Leautulilagi<br />
Vanessa Barlow Schuster.<br />
“It’s been a long time coming and a lot of<br />
hard work preceded this. Without the work<br />
of many people and many in the industry,<br />
we would not have got so far. We had a<br />
piece of legislation, the Media Council Act,<br />
so it is now well overdue for us to be doing<br />
some work that was given to us under that<br />
legislation.”<br />

Salelologa Immigration Branch praised<br />
ON JOB; Senior Immigration Officer Titimaea Tolai manning the<br />
Salelologa Immigration Division Office located on the 2nd floor of<br />
the Salelologa Market.<br />
By Nanai Taofiga Laveitiga<br />
Tuiletufuga<br />
An average of 20 plus Savaii residents<br />
frequents the Immigration Division’s<br />
Branch at Salelologa on a<br />
daily basis.<br />
“But the numbers does not do any<br />
justice to the convenience not to<br />
mention the money saved by the big<br />
island’s residents to travel to Apia for<br />
immigration services,” says Senior<br />
Immigration Officer Titimaea Tolai,<br />
one of the two permanent employees<br />
assigned to the Divisions Branch<br />
located at the second floor of the<br />
Salelologa Market.<br />
“Here at our Salelologa branch, we<br />
offer the same services available in<br />
our main Apia office. The services<br />
provided range from passport renewals,<br />
new passport applications and<br />
advisories on all immigration matters.<br />
“And the positive response from<br />
Savai’i residents mostly from isolated<br />
areas such as Falealupo and Asau is<br />
very motivational,” added Tolai, a 30<br />
year veteran with the Immigration Division.<br />
“Many of our clients are happy that<br />
they do not need to travel to Apia.”<br />
Currently, Chief Executive Officer<br />
with the Ministry of Prime Minister<br />
and Cabinet Agafili Shem Leo is hoping<br />
to improve the services in Savaii<br />
by securing a specialised laser printer<br />
to process new passports and<br />
passports renewals on the dot at the<br />
Salelologa location.<br />
The Salelologa Immigration Branch<br />
Office also houses services such as,<br />
the Savali Newspaper and the Recognised<br />
Seasonal Employment program<br />
all under the MPMC umbrella.<br />
The investment is in line with the<br />
government’s platform that what is<br />
available in Upolu should also be<br />
available for Savai’i.<br />
Elaborated Chief Executive Agafili;<br />
“Decentralising government services<br />
to the big island will save our Savai’i<br />
residents time and money especially<br />
when they don’t have to travel to<br />
Apia. And most importantly, they only<br />
need to go to the Salelologa Market<br />
place to access these government<br />
services.<br />
“The concept is also in line with the<br />
government’s Salelologa Township<br />
Development Project.<br />
“This is why government decided to<br />
invest in the Salelologa Township.<br />
“So services available in Apia are<br />
also readily available and affordable<br />
in Savai’i.<br />
“As business grows so will the economy<br />
of wider Savaii.<br />
“As demand for goods and services<br />
increases so wills activity in areas<br />
such as shipping, transport and air<br />
links.”<br />
“The ultimate target is not only to decentralise<br />
all of the government services<br />
from Apia to Salelologa but also<br />
to centralise all of the government’s<br />
branches scattered in the Salelologa<br />
vicinity under one roof-like a one stop<br />
mall.<br />
“Having a range of government services<br />
under one roof will eliminate<br />
Simone Penese from the MPMC main<br />
office a frequent visitor responsible for<br />
daily deliveries between the Main Office<br />
and Salelologa<br />
the present inconvenience for Savai’i<br />
residents to travel from one office to<br />
another.<br />
“Without a doubt, I remain firm on<br />
my administration’s resolve that all<br />
government services should also be<br />
readily available for our Savai’i residents.”<br />
The MPMC Salelologa Branch will<br />
help Savai’i residents with their immigration<br />
needs such as new passports<br />
and renewable and any issue<br />
related to immigration.<br />
The Savali Newspaper both in English<br />
and Samoan will also be distributed<br />
from Salelologa location.<br />
And any inquiries pertaining to the<br />
RSE initiative which is providing<br />
valuable employment for our people<br />
can be lodged with the Salelologa location.<br />
Ban on Chinese owned business, racist; PM Tuilaepa<br />
By Nanai Taofiga Laveitiga Tuiletufuga<br />
Prime Minister Tuilaepa Lupesoliai Sailele Malielegaoi<br />
has deep reservations with bans imposed<br />
by a number of village councils stopping Chinese<br />
businesses from setting up shops in their respective<br />
villages.<br />
Without naming the village councils, the Prime<br />
Minister told the Talamua.com; FM Radio Station<br />
that the ban exclusively targeting Chinese owned<br />
businesses is racist, (faailoga lanu).<br />
“Why Chinese?<br />
“Why not pick on other foreign business investors?<br />
“To single out the Chinese businesses is racially<br />
prejudiced,” says the Prime Minister.<br />
He says that he values the village council’s foresight<br />
to impose the ban to protect the interests<br />
of small village owned businesses but at the end<br />
of the day, it’s attracting new investors’ remains<br />
a government priority because it represents new<br />
employment and new income directly injected into<br />
families.<br />
“There is also the question of affordability,” continued<br />
the government leader. “No sane customer<br />
would by a product which is more expensive.<br />
“The government’s intention is to bring in foreign<br />
investors to Samoa as it opens up employment opportunities<br />
for our people and to help develop the<br />
economy of Samoa.<br />
“The more businesses we have create competition<br />
and prices go down and that’s aside from new employment<br />
opportunities for our people.<br />
Reportedly the main concern expressed by members<br />
of the public is that foreign owned businesses<br />
are taking over opportunities and businesses that<br />
should have been reserved for locals.<br />
There are also more foreigners doing jobs that<br />
could have been available to locals.<br />
But the Prime Minister countered that the Foreign<br />
Investment Act 2000 dictates and provide guidelines<br />
for foreign businesses interested in investing<br />
in Samoa.<br />
There is a reserve list under this Act, which lists<br />
the type of business activities that are reserved for<br />
Samoans and not for the foreigners.<br />
For instant, overseas investors are not allowed to<br />
start a public transport business, elei business,<br />
small shops, and other kinds of business.<br />
The process calls for foreign owned businesses to<br />
go through the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and<br />
Labour’s assessment to determine their investment<br />
before the application is it on to the Ministry<br />
of Revenue for a business license to be issued.<br />

Govt. a step ahead for more World Bank funding<br />
World Banks’ Vice President East<br />
Asia and Pacific, Victoria Kwakwa<br />
in Apia.<br />
Vice-President Kwakwa (second from left) joins local leaders in the ground<br />
breaking ceremonies for the eCenter Landing Station in Tuasivi Savaii for<br />
the multi-million tala Tui-Samoa fibre optic cable.<br />
By Nanai Taofiga Laveitiga Tuiletufuga<br />
Government has indicated its priority<br />
projects which it will pursue for<br />
new funding from the World Bank’s<br />
International Development Association,<br />
(IDA) funds available to the<br />
Pacific region, which covers Samoa.<br />
And the changes are good with the<br />
IDA to increase its allocation to the<br />
Pacific region including Samoa for<br />
the next three years starting in July<br />
from US$360million to US$900 million.<br />
How much of that money will be<br />
given to Samoa is not clear.<br />
But the Bank’s Vice President of<br />
East Asia and Pacific, Victoria<br />
Kwakwa, in the country last week<br />
has assured Samoa stands to benefit<br />
a great deal.<br />
“This significant increase in support<br />
to Samoa, through the International<br />
Development Association, ensures<br />
we will be able to build on these<br />
successes to ensure the Samoan<br />
government’s development priorities<br />
can become a reality over the<br />
coming years.”<br />
After meeting with Prime Minister,<br />
Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi and<br />
Minister of Finance, Sili Epa Tuioti,<br />
Vice President Kwakwa told the<br />
press that government has indicated<br />
its priority projects for possible<br />
IDA funding.<br />
The projects according to Ms.<br />
Kwakwa includes climate resilience<br />
infrastructure to complement Samoa’s<br />
tourism industry and growth<br />
as well as continued assistance in<br />
Information Technology, Education<br />
and Health.<br />
“For every dollar that a donor<br />
country like New Zealand gives,<br />
I.D.A. provides an additional three.<br />
We’ve really grown the volume for<br />
resources and it positions us in a<br />
much stronger place to support our<br />
countries particularly Samoa,” the<br />
Vice President told the local media.<br />
“We need to do better and think strategically<br />
about where the government’s<br />
priorities would be for using<br />
a significant scale up of resources<br />
of I.D.A. Samoa would benefit considerably<br />
from the resources that<br />
we’re able to bring to the table and<br />
it will increase by three fold.<br />
“This is a fantastic opportunity but<br />
we have to approach it with a very<br />
strategic orientation, with our feet<br />
on the ground and to know what our<br />
comparative advantage is and what<br />
we’re able to do or cannot do.<br />
“We also have to listen to the government<br />
in what its interested in<br />
seeing us do. We hope that doing<br />
this, we can end up with a programme<br />
of work that is really transformational<br />
and brings a delta if I<br />
She also holds Samoa’s evolution<br />
in information technology in high<br />
regards.<br />
And she is adamant that sector can<br />
provide at least 1500 more jobs for<br />
Samoans.<br />
“Scenarios outlined in Pacific Possible<br />
suggest that by taking full<br />
advantage of I.C.T industry opportunities<br />
facilitated by world-class<br />
connectivity, Samoa could net between<br />
approximately 1,500 and<br />
4,000 jobs,” she said.<br />
“We don’t have to look far to see<br />
that – the I.C.T. revolution is happening<br />
right here, right now, and<br />
Samoa is certainly working hard to<br />
position itself as a leader in the sector.<br />
Let’s continue working together<br />
to bridge the digital divide and to<br />
make it possible in the Pacific.”<br />
And in launching the Tui-Samoa<br />
Cable eCenter in Savaii during her<br />
visit she noted that the new $57.4<br />
million submarine cable system,<br />
promises to deliver “affordable<br />
high-speed internet access to Samoa.”<br />
“I congratulate everyone involved<br />
for working so hard to get the project<br />
to this point – particularly the<br />
establishment of the Samoa Submarine<br />
Cable Corporation, which is<br />
up and running to deliver the cable<br />
this calendar year – an ambitious<br />
goal I am sure we can meet,” she<br />
said.<br />
“The Government of Samoa has<br />
also played a very proactive role in<br />
fostering relationships with regional<br />
neighbours in the delivery of the<br />
Tui-Samoa Cable – a testament to<br />
the cooperative spirit we see in the<br />
Pacific.”<br />
“We all know how vital internet and<br />
telecommunications connectivity is<br />
to development – enhancing everything<br />
from economic and business<br />
opportunities, healthcare, education,<br />
disaster resilience and response,<br />
and even agriculture.”<br />
The Tui Samoa Cable project aims<br />
to deliver low-cost broadband services<br />
to Samoa and strengthen the<br />
regulatory and legal environment<br />
for information and communications<br />
technology.<br />
It is expected to deliver Samoa<br />
a wide range of improvements to<br />
public services, including an e-<br />
health patient information system to<br />
improve patient care within the Samoan<br />
health system, as well as significant<br />
benefits to education, business,<br />
tourism, agriculture, as well<br />
as disaster planning and response.<br />
The cable is expected to reach land<br />
in Apia and Savai’i in early 2018.<br />

Poutasi Development Trust stronger than ever<br />
PDT’s garden project can substitute<br />
local produce for these catering<br />
businesses, helping to reduce their<br />
costs at the same time as creating<br />
jobs and income for the villagers.”<br />
In 2011, paramount chief Tuatagaloa<br />
Joe Annandale led the village<br />
to set up a preschool and initiated<br />
a range of local scoping and capacity-building<br />
programmes, under the<br />
not-for-profit Poutasi Development<br />
Trust (PDT). Soon after, PDT built<br />
on the support of these projects to<br />
establish the Poutasi Gardens.<br />
Samoa’s growing tourist economy<br />
relies on the import of produce like<br />
fresh salad greens and herbs from<br />
New Zealand to cater for hotels and<br />
Now 70% of all Poutasi Gardens<br />
income is paid directly to people in<br />
the district for services performed or<br />
produce purchased; the remainder<br />
serves to acquire fertiliser, seeds,<br />
fuel and materials.<br />
Any profit made by PDT goes to<br />
support and improve the Poutasi<br />
community and its facilities, infrastructure<br />
and environment, leading<br />
the village towards self-sufficiency,<br />
and further away from its reliance on<br />
overseas aid and remittances.<br />
And Tuatagaloa is overly thankful<br />
that Poutasi has the full supporter<br />
of its partners from New Zealand.<br />
They include the Tindall Foundation<br />
and the New Zealand’s Volunteer<br />
Service Abroad (VSA)<br />
July 2012 witnessed the first sod<br />
turned on this new business initiative.<br />
Shortly after, New Zealand’s<br />
Volunteer Service Abroad (VSA)<br />
joined the endeavour and assigned<br />
specialist volunteers to assist with<br />
selected projects.<br />
“We saw an opportunity with VSA to<br />
work with Poutasi, a village that suffered<br />
tremendous loss in the tsunami,”<br />
recalled volunteers Glenn and<br />
Sharyn Cant. The Cants, who had<br />
been in Samoa when the tsunami<br />
hit, returned in November 2012 to<br />
coordinate development of horticulture,<br />
marketing and a new art centre.<br />
With Glenn and Sharyn’s guidance,<br />
the gardens have developed to employ<br />
five full-time workers, four of<br />
them women (including the team<br />
leader). Additional produce is purchased<br />
from more than ten families<br />
whom PDT encouraged to create<br />
their own gardens.<br />
“In addition The Tindall Foundation<br />
has supported PDT by running<br />
courses for Recognised Seasonal<br />
Employer workers who go to New<br />
Zealand to pick apples,” said PDT’s<br />
Interim CEO Bruce Russell. Other<br />
courses we have financed for the<br />
village include financial numeracy,<br />
start your own business, and fruit<br />
tree propagation for local farmers.<br />
The PDT’s targets include;<br />
The brainchild’s responsible for the birth of the<br />
Poutasi Development Trust<br />
• Providing employment opportunities;<br />
• Furthering education;<br />
• Developing skills;<br />
• Promoting and caring for the environment;<br />
• Fostering prosperity in Poutasi;<br />
• Promoting good health and improved<br />
nutrition;<br />
• Promoting a self-sustaining lifestyle<br />
(non-reliance on remittances);<br />
• Fostering the retention of traditional<br />
Samoan skills;<br />
Villagers working for the Poutasi Garden to earn a living<br />
By Nanai Taofiga Laveitiga Tuiletufuga<br />
Set up after the 2009 tsunami, the<br />
Poutasi Development Trust, (PDT)<br />
is going from strength to strength<br />
providing much needed employment<br />
as well as income for villagers.<br />
And the Poutasi Falealili is reaping<br />
the Trusts’ fruits of hard labour,<br />
through its range of projects already<br />
up and running.<br />
Close to 20 full time employees are<br />
on the Trust payroll funded entirely<br />
from their own hard labour with the<br />
sales of vegetables from the PDT’s<br />
Poutasi Botanic Garden, locally<br />
made handicrafts and ukuleles at<br />
the Poutasi Art Centre and the preschool<br />
and primary school operations.<br />
In 2011, Poutasi’s paramount chief<br />
Tuatagaloa Joe Annandale led the<br />
village to set up a preschool and<br />
initiated a range of local scoping<br />
and capacity-building programmes,<br />
under the not-for-profit Poutasi Development<br />
Trust (PDT). Soon after,<br />
PDT built on the support of these<br />
projects to establish the Poutasi<br />
Gardens.<br />
“Samoa’s growing tourist economy<br />

and resorts,” said Tuatagaloa.” The<br />
resorts. The PDT’s garden project<br />
can substitute local produce for<br />
these catering businesses, helping<br />
to reduce their costs at the same<br />
time as creating jobs and income for<br />
the villagers.<br />
Income earned by the gardens, together<br />
with funding from the Civil<br />
Society Support Project and other<br />
grants, enables PDT to run the preschool<br />
and its other community projects.<br />
Among these are the art centre<br />
and café, and the latest project—a<br />
community library supported by<br />
Apia Rotary, which is receiving book<br />
donations from a wide range of donors.<br />

Left hand drive vehicles will be allowed<br />
back into Samoa; Prime Minister<br />
Tuilaepa Lupesoliai Sailele<br />
Malielegaoi has told national Radio<br />
2AP during his live weekly ‘Meet the<br />
Prime Minister’ radio talk show.<br />
And the change is to comply with the<br />
World Trade Organisation mandate<br />
which Samoa is a member state<br />
since its induction into the global<br />
body in 2012.<br />
The road switch was adopted and<br />
implemented by government in 2009<br />
and after signing the WTO three<br />
years later, Prime Minister says that<br />
government has no choice by to reopen<br />
the import market for left-hand<br />
drive vehicles.<br />
“We have received a handful of<br />
requests from families and an individual<br />
wanting to import their left<br />
Cabinet OKs left hand drive imports<br />
hand drives,” elaborated Tuilaepa.<br />
“And to satisfy our WTO obligations,<br />
the left hand drives will be allowed<br />
back.”<br />
But there are strict conditions; the<br />
Prime Minister was quick to point<br />
out.<br />
“The left hand drives imports will be<br />
restricted to cars manufactured after<br />
2009 before April,” he explained.<br />
“That is the same policy that Cabinet<br />
has approved for right hand drives.”<br />
Secondly the government leader<br />
noted that regulations in place have<br />
given the Minister of Customs, sole<br />
discretion on reviewing and approving<br />
requests to import left hand<br />
drives.<br />
“Don’t bother thinking of requesting<br />
assistance from the Prime Minister,”<br />
said Tuilaepa. “Even I don’t have<br />
the legal muscle to approve, deny or<br />
even consider any requests. That<br />
will be strictly up to the Customs<br />
Minister with the help of his Chief<br />
Executive Officer.”<br />
The Prime Minister said that the<br />
third stipulation is that only individuals<br />
or families can request for the<br />
exemption and it is not designed for<br />
commercial purposes.<br />

Toetu Fuifatu from Tafua, Taga Savai’i<br />
By Nanai Taofiga Laveitiga<br />
Tuiletufuga<br />
Toetu Fuifatu from Tafua Taga<br />
Savaii has every reason to hold his<br />
head up high-proud to be from Tafua.<br />
He is one of the 30 plus young Samoa<br />
Recognised Seasonal Workers<br />
from his village who pooled together<br />
to contribute close to $200-thousand<br />
tala to finance the construction<br />
of the new EFKS church.<br />
The total cost of the project is<br />
$700-thousand tala.<br />
And for Toetu he says that it’s not<br />
how much he contributed from his<br />
salaries to the new church project<br />
while employed in New Zealand as<br />
a seasonal worker but the permanent<br />
recordings for life of his contribution<br />
in the EFKS Tafua Church<br />
history books.<br />
“Money was and will never be an<br />
issue. Paramount to me is that my<br />
family name, Fuifatu is in the official<br />
church records as a contributor to<br />
the church developments. And that<br />
is priceless,” said the 38-year old<br />
father of two.<br />
“E pala maa ae le pala tala,” he<br />
said in Samoan. “That is my thinking<br />
when it comes to helping our<br />
church.<br />
Church Rev. Niulala Kupa is the<br />
brainchild behind the thinking to tap<br />
into the New Zealand’s Seasonal<br />
Workers initiative as a funding<br />
source for the new church. And his<br />
initiative had paid off.<br />
“Aside from the new church, more<br />
than 90% of Tafua village are living<br />
in modernised brick houses.<br />
“Many have vehicles and almost<br />
every family are investing in cattle<br />
farming,” said Rev. Kupa who has<br />
served the Tafua EFKS Congregation<br />
for more than 30 years.<br />
“Ten years ago, before Tafua became<br />
part of the RSE movement,<br />
many families were struggling.<br />
“Today, they are well off,” continued<br />
Rev. Kupa.<br />
“The RSE workers have changed<br />
their mindsets through their exposure<br />
in New Zealand which has<br />
opened their eyes that family and<br />
church first is most important.<br />
“They are more aware on how to<br />
spend and invest their earnings and<br />
their attitude towards village unity<br />
and harmony has change for the<br />
betterment of Tafua.<br />
“And it’s all credit to the governments<br />
of New Zealand and Samoa<br />
and most importantly<br />
Mr Apple<br />
company our<br />
sole employer in<br />
Aoteroa.<br />
“Without RSE,<br />
without Mr Apple,<br />
and the Samoa<br />
and New<br />
Zealand Governments<br />
and<br />
most importantly<br />
without<br />
the endurance,<br />
patience and<br />
tolerance of the<br />
wives, children<br />
and the respective<br />
families of<br />
our RSE workers,<br />
Tafua would<br />
not be where it is today.”<br />
He echoes repeated public advices<br />
from Prime Minister Tuilaepa Lupesoliai<br />
Sailele Malielegaoi for Samoan<br />
RSE to safeguard the seasonal<br />
employment incentive at all costs.<br />
“Whatever you do while deployed in<br />
New Zealand, pray to our father for<br />
strength, guidance and not to lead<br />
you not into temptations.<br />
“With the Lord on your side, you<br />
EFKS Tafua’s Rev. Niulala Kupa<br />
can overcome temptations. Never<br />
forget that the future of your families,<br />
your children and above all<br />
the reputation of Samoa is in your<br />
hands,” preached Rev. Kupa adding<br />
that he is 110% with Prime Minister<br />
Tuilaepa to blacklist villagers<br />
whose workers are deported back<br />
to Samoa for violation conditions of<br />
their temporary employment.<br />
“The RSE scheme is bigger than<br />
one worker and one village. It is<br />
carries the hopes of thousands of<br />
Samoa families and its existence<br />
should never be comprised by the<br />
irresponsibility’s of a few hoodlums.”<br />
And Toetu<br />
agrees;<br />
“The power of<br />
prayers can do<br />
wonders.<br />
“With two children<br />
and a<br />
young wife back<br />
home, temptation<br />
is always<br />
knocking on<br />
your thoughts.<br />
“But prayers<br />
have always<br />
been my<br />
strength,” added<br />
Toetu whose<br />
spending a god<br />
four years of his<br />
life as a seasonal<br />
RSE worker which has given him<br />
a new two bedroom home, a new<br />
car and savings to support his family<br />
while he taking five for a couple<br />
of years to enjoy life with his young<br />
family.<br />
Ironically, 30 RSE workers from Tafua<br />
are back on the job, departing<br />
for New Zealand a couple of weeks<br />
ago, to continue the Tafua-Mr. Apple<br />
legacy.<br />

Go to the sports tribunal, PM advises<br />
Nanai Taofiga Laveitiga Tuiletufuga<br />
Sports Associations with internal<br />
leadership problems<br />
should seek assistance from<br />
the Sports Tribunal, Prime<br />
Minister Tuilaepa Lupesoliai<br />
Sailele Malielegaoi has recommended.<br />
He was responding to media<br />
queries over the alleged split<br />
in leadership within the Samoa<br />
National Volleyball Association.<br />
Although assured by Education<br />
and Sports Minister Loau<br />
Solamalemalo Keneti Sio that<br />
the association has resolved<br />
its differences, Tuilaepa nonethess<br />
is urging sporting bodies<br />
facing similar dilemmas<br />
to seek help from the Sports<br />
Tribunal.<br />
He said that the Tribunal is<br />
a government initiative set<br />
up after years of dealing and<br />
trying to resolve the endless<br />
disputes within the respective<br />
sporting bodies.<br />
Tuilaepa said the Sports Tribunal<br />
has resolved many issues<br />
in the past relating to<br />
sporting bodies, such as Samoa<br />
National Olympic Committee,<br />
Soccer and even volleyball.<br />
And that sporting bodies<br />
should take this route.<br />
He pointed out that the government<br />
does not want to<br />
intervene when it comes to<br />
sports management. But from<br />
experience, its athletes that<br />
suffer the consequences if the<br />
leadership in their respective<br />
sports discipline is in chaos.<br />
As a result government took<br />
the initiative to create the<br />
Sports Tribunal by law and that<br />
is the only solution to resolve<br />
any internal matters within the<br />
country’s sports fraternity.<br />
“The Tribunal has resolved<br />
the in-house fighting between<br />
SASNOC leaders. It has dealt<br />
with the Soccer Association<br />
and even the volleyball leadership<br />
in the past,” he added.<br />
“And we have retired judges<br />
ready to serve on the Sports<br />
Tribunal if there are grievances<br />
within any sporting body,”<br />
he concluded.<br />
Prime Minister Tuilaepa Lupesoliai Saielele Malielegaoi<br />

13 th Pacific Games hosted by Samoa in 2007.<br />
Celebrating RSE’s success in Falealili fashion<br />
MPMC’s Seasonal Employment Unit’s Funefeai Muelu Meatoga<br />
meets with Poutasi’s Tuatagaloa Joe Annandale.<br />
Nanai Taofiga Laveitiga Tuiletufuga<br />
The Falealili Recognised Seasonal<br />
Employees Program is celebrating<br />
their tenth anniversary in June. And<br />
the celebration also marks the success<br />
of the program in improving the<br />
livelihood of the families.<br />
It will see a first ever agricultural<br />
show to showcase Falealili’s spinoffs<br />
from the New Zealand RSE and<br />
above all to acknowledge the successful<br />
partnership with their New<br />
Zealand counterparts- in Falealili<br />
fashion.<br />
As the single largest ATM for Falealili<br />
which has injected an average<br />
of $2.3 million tala a picking season,<br />
from salary remittances directly for<br />
Falealili families, ”it is only fitting,<br />
that Falealili celebrates its blessings<br />
by honouring our loyal stakeholders<br />
and employers in New Zealand,”<br />
says the man responsible Poutasi<br />
Falealili’s paramount chief Tuatagaloa<br />
Joe Annandale.<br />
“Falealili’s RSE workers will display<br />
their achievements during and after<br />
their temporary employment in the<br />
program,” added Tuatagaloa. He<br />
added that local stakeholders that<br />
include the Seasonal Employment<br />
Unit, the local arm to the New Zealand<br />
counters will also be invited to<br />
be part of the show along with other<br />
stakeholders.<br />
“It’s basically a showcase. It will be a<br />
two day event and will coincide with<br />
the return of our 180 RSE workers,”<br />
adds a modest Tuatagaloa.<br />
There will be prizes which are donated<br />
by Mr. Apple and Mr. Appleseed.<br />
But on a rather serious note, the Falealili<br />
RSE Program will also be enforcing<br />
new strategies to ensure that<br />
everyone is on page, when it comes<br />
to the RSE account which has been<br />
without a doubt Falealili’s saviour for<br />
over a decade since it became part<br />
of the growing RSE family here and<br />
in Aoteroa.<br />
Elaborated Tuatagaloa;<br />
“Our program is now enforcing the<br />
three year period stand down policy.<br />
“We feel that three years in the program,<br />
is sufficient<br />
time for<br />
our RSE workers<br />
to show<br />
their reaps of<br />
hard labour in<br />
New Zealand<br />
in terms of new<br />
homes, cars,<br />
small business<br />
and even farming-small<br />
time.<br />
“And the RSE Committee is also doing<br />
its part by monitoring our workers<br />
when they return home to ensure<br />
that they do not squander their hard<br />
earned income.<br />
“It’s an effort to try and engage families<br />
as well,” says Tuatagaloa.<br />
“And we our workers don’t end with<br />
someone going to pick apples so<br />
that when they come back we monitor<br />
what they do with their money.<br />
“We believe it is our business to ensure<br />
that the employee who goes<br />
away does benefit and they are putting<br />
their money in good use.<br />
“It is also part of our selection process.<br />
“And if someone<br />
doesn’t spend<br />
their money<br />
wisely, irresponsible,<br />
reckless<br />
we take them off<br />
the list and put<br />
somebody else<br />
that shows responsibility<br />
and<br />
commitment.”<br />
The Falealili RSE program originally<br />
started at Poutasi in 2008 where only<br />
15 workers were picked. Today, the<br />
program has expanded to cover the<br />
entire Falealili County with 180 RSE<br />
workers from Falealili in New Zealand<br />
for this year’s picking season.<br />

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF SAMOA HELD AT APIA<br />
IN THE MATTER:<br />

duly iircorporzlted company Operating<br />
in Samoa FIRST RESPONDENT<br />
AND:<br />
MINISTRY OF PUBLIC ENTERPRISES<br />
a duly incorporated company operating<br />
in Samoa SECOND RESPONDENT<br />
AND:<br />
ATTORNEY-GENERAL on behalf of<br />
the Land Board established under the<br />
provisions of the Lands and Survey and<br />
Environment Act 1989 and the Ministry<br />
of Public Enterprises established under<br />
the Public Bodies (Performance and Accountability)<br />
Act 2001 THIRD RESPON-<br />
DENT<br />
OBJECTION TO RESPONDENTS’ NO-<br />
TICES OF MOTION TO STRIKE OUT<br />
THE APPLICANTS object to the Notice<br />
of Motion To Strike Out by all the Respondents<br />
UPON THE GROUNDS AS<br />
FOLLOWS:<br />
RULE 70 OF THE SUPREME COURT<br />
(CIVIL PROCEDURE) RULES I980<br />
1. The respondents’ notice based on<br />
rule 70 is opposed because the Statement<br />
of Claim by the applicants clearly<br />
specify and or disclose the following<br />
causes of action including:<br />
1.1. An action based on the law of promissory<br />
estoppel arising from where one<br />
party has by words or conduct made to<br />
the other a clear and unequivocal promise<br />
or assurance intended to affect the<br />
relations between them and to be acted<br />
on accordingly. In this regard, once the<br />
other party has taken the promissory<br />
at his or her word and acted on it, the<br />
promissory is bound by the promise<br />
or assurance (Liuvae v Samoa Credit<br />
Union League [1997] WSSC 13; Legione<br />
v Hately [1983] HCA 11; Grundt<br />
v Grant Boulder Pty Gold Mines Ltd<br />
[1937] HCA 58)<br />
1.2. Applying this principle of promissory<br />
estoppel to the facts in this case, the<br />
promise and assurance by government<br />
(promissory) representatives of Samoa<br />
in the 1920s and 1962 to give the Tokuma<br />
family the lands at Sogi to occupy<br />
and to own was acted upon accordingly<br />
by Mr Turore Tokuma and his family<br />
1.3. The representatives of the Samoa<br />
government who made such promise<br />
and assurance were the late Commissioner<br />
of Crown Estates of Samoa, and<br />
the Public Trustee of Samoa and also<br />
a Member of the Legislative Council of<br />
Samoa, the Rt Hon Percival Ernest Patrick<br />
in 1920 and the first Prime Minister<br />
of Samoa, the late Mataafa Faumuina<br />
Mulinu’u II in 1962.<br />
1.4. The assurance and encouragement<br />
by the first Prime Minister of Samoa to<br />
allow the Tokuma family continuing occupying<br />
the lands at Sogi is confirmed<br />
by Mr Nanai Liu Tokuma’s affidavit in<br />
paragraph 16. Mr Nanai Liu Tokuma is<br />
the son of the late Turore Tokuma.<br />
1.5. According to His Honour Sapolu the<br />
Chief Justice of Samoa, in Meredith v<br />
Pa’u [1994] WSSC 7, the estoppel by<br />
encouragement or by acquiescence<br />
can give rise to a cause of action. Occupation<br />
by the Tokuma family of lands<br />
at Sogi is therefore an act of encouragement<br />
and acquiescence by the government<br />
of Samoa based on proprietary<br />
estoppel.<br />
1.6. His Honour further stated that it is<br />
clear that even if the defendant’s counter-claim<br />
is phrased in the terminology<br />
of estoppel by encouragement or estoppel<br />
by acquiescence, such a cause of<br />
action will still be maintainable in law.<br />
2. An action based on unjust enrichment<br />
where the reclaimed work by the<br />
Applicants on the swampy area at Sogi<br />
which is now occupying by agents of the<br />
first respondent.<br />
FRIVOLOUS, VEXATIOUS & ABUSE<br />
OF PROCESS<br />
3. The respondents’ assertion that the<br />
exparte motion by the applications<br />
is frivolous, vexatious and abuse of<br />
process is opposed on the following<br />
grounds.<br />
3.1. That the causes of action pleaded<br />
by the applicants in their Statement of<br />
Claim are not frivolous because they<br />
are meritorious and substantive capable<br />
of reasoned argument.<br />
3.2. That the causes of action by the applicants<br />
are not vexatious because they<br />
are supported by bona fides with foundation<br />
and substance. The actions are<br />
meritorious capable of being successful.<br />
They cannot be regarded as groundless<br />
and oppressive.<br />
3.3. That the doctrine of abuse of process<br />
requires the Court to decide<br />
whether there is abuse sufficiently serious<br />
to prevent the offending litigant from<br />
proceeding (Enosa v Samoa Observer<br />
Co Ltd [2005] WSSC 3)<br />
MISJOINDER<br />
4. The claim by the Respondents under<br />
rule 35 of the Supreme Court (Civil Procedure)<br />
Rules 1980 that the second and<br />
third respondents are misjoinders is opposed<br />
because:<br />
4.1. The inclusion of the 2nd & 3rd Respondents<br />
in these proceedings would<br />
not be embarrassing and or inexpedient<br />
due to their statutory responsibilities under<br />
sections 4 and 2 of the Public Bodies<br />
(Performance and Accountability)<br />
Act 2001.<br />
4.2. The legal standing of the Respondents<br />
in these proceedings is confirmed<br />
by sections 2 & 4 of the 2001 Act. If the<br />
1st Respondent is categorised as a public<br />
trading body under section 2 of the<br />
Act, then section 4 of the Act obliges the<br />
2nd Respondent to ensure that the 1st<br />
Respondent is complied with its statutory<br />
responsibilities under the 2001 Act.<br />
4.3. Whether an organisation is called<br />
a state-owned enterprise or otherwise<br />
under any other Act, the common link<br />
among the Respondents in these proceedings<br />
relates to their regulatory roles<br />
and responsibilities under the Public Finance<br />
Management Act 2001.<br />
4.4. Therefore, applying these principles<br />
to the plaintiffs’ motion, the 1st<br />
Respondent has vested interest in contributing<br />
to the social, cultural, economic<br />
and commercial development of Samoa<br />
which interlinks with the role of the 3rd<br />
respondent in providing public funding<br />
and controlling of the board of directors<br />
who make decisions for the development<br />
and delivery of social, cultural,<br />
economic and commercial services to<br />
Samoa.<br />
4.5. However, the 2nd Respondent fits<br />
into this paradigm because of its statutory<br />
responsibilities as a public trading<br />
body requiring that any developments<br />
intended to be performed by the 1st Respondent<br />
must be such to optimise the<br />
returns on investment of public funds by<br />
the government.<br />
4.6. So the legal justification of the Respondents<br />
in these proceedings is profoundly<br />
strong making it difficult to regard<br />
them as misjoinders as one cannot<br />
be isolated from the other in terms of<br />
their statutory responsibilities.<br />
4.7. It is therefore a misconception for<br />
the 3rd Respondent to say that the 2nd<br />
Respondent is irrelevant because its<br />
statutory responsibilities are limited only<br />
to monitoring and assessment of performance<br />
of State Owned Enterprises.<br />
4.8. In other words, the statutory requirements<br />
regarding the 1st, 2nd & 3rd<br />
Respondents make them entitled to be<br />
deemed properly constituted as joinders<br />
in these proceedings.<br />
FAILURE TO PARTICULARISE<br />
PLEADINGS<br />
5. The claim by the Respondents that<br />
the Applicants have failed to provide<br />
particulars in their pleadings against the<br />
3rd Respondent is opposed because:<br />
5.1. The Applicants in their Statement<br />
of Claim did indicate sufficient<br />
particulars to move the court for orders<br />
to estopp the government through the<br />
3rd Respondent from relocating the<br />
Plaintiffs from their lands at Sogi. It also<br />
claims for the agents of the government<br />
to be estopped from undertaking surveying<br />
and evaluation works of the Sogi<br />
lands occupying by the Plaintiffs.<br />
5.2. The Applicants in their Statement<br />
of Claim illustrated in paragraphs<br />
27 to 28 the way in which the effects can<br />
be produced by virtue of the relocation<br />
plan if implemented as intended by the<br />
government.<br />
5.3. For example, by illustrating how<br />
the government (represented by the 3rd<br />
Respondent in these proceedings) may<br />
breach a proper purpose, paragraphs<br />
27 & 28 of the Statement of Claim explain<br />
as follows:<br />
5.3.1. If government through the second<br />
and third respondent aims to relocate<br />
the Sogi residents to produce effect A,<br />
but somehow the purpose for which the<br />
power was conferred by the Taking of<br />
the Lands Act suggests that effect B is<br />
to be produced, then it may be inferred<br />
that there was an improper purpose if<br />
the purpose was to produce effect C.<br />
5.3.2. The government through the<br />
third respondent must then be clear as<br />
to its purpose and what it wants to produce<br />
as effect A according to its power<br />
conferred by the Taking of the Lands<br />
Act.<br />
5.3.3. However, the government has<br />
remained absurd and ambiguous as<br />
to its purpose and subsequently this<br />
may lead to effect B being produced. If<br />
neither effect A or Q is to be produced<br />
and subsequently led to effect C being<br />
produced, then this may infer to be improper<br />
purpose.<br />
SECTION 12 OF THE GOVERNMENT<br />
PROEEDINGS ACT I964<br />
6. The Appellants oppose the Respondents’<br />
claim that orders sought by the<br />
Applicants in paragraphs (4). (5) and<br />
(6) in their Statement of Claim are not<br />
available under section 12 Of the Government<br />
Proceedings Act I964. Opposition<br />
to the respondents’ claim is based<br />
on the following:<br />
6.1. Section 12 (:1) of the Act allows the<br />
Court to make an order declaratory of<br />
the rights of the parties to a proceeding.<br />
Paragraph (h) of section 12 further<br />
provides for the Court to make an order<br />
declaring that a person is entitled to the<br />
land or property or to the possession<br />
thereof.<br />
6.2. Furthermore, an order can be made<br />
by the Court against an officer of the<br />
government if the order is not a relief<br />
against the government which could<br />
not have been obtained in proceedings<br />
against the government.<br />
6.3. In other words, by virtue of the<br />
Court declaring plaintiffs’ possessory<br />
entitlement to their lands at Sogi, interference<br />
by agents of the 1st, 2nd and<br />
3rd Respondents can be estopped by<br />
the Court so plaintiffs can privately enjoy<br />
their lands.<br />
DEFECTIVE CLAIM FOR DECLARA-<br />
TORY ORDERS<br />
7. The Applicants oppose the claim by<br />
the Respondents for a strike out because<br />
the declaratory orders sought by<br />
the Applicants are detective by relying<br />
on the Land and Survey and Environment<br />
Act 1989 and the Public Bodies<br />
(Performance and Accountability) Act<br />
2001 and not the Declaratory Judgment<br />
Act 1988. Opposition to claim is based<br />
on the following:<br />
7.1. The inclusion of the Land and Survey<br />
and Environment Act I989 and the<br />
Public Bodies (Performance and Accountability)<br />
Act 2001 in the intituled<br />
page of the Statement of Claim was<br />
done to provide the legal standing<br />
for the 1st and 2”“ Respondents to be<br />
joined as parties to these proceedings.<br />
7.2. However, the motion by the Applicants<br />
is clear moving the Supreme<br />
Court for o declaring occupation olithe<br />
Sogi lands, inter alia, by the Applicants<br />
is lawful. 7.3. ln other words, in any<br />
event, if this honourable Court declares<br />
the motion to be detective because<br />
ol’thc wrong Act referred to in the lntituled<br />
page ofthe Stateir ol’(_Tlaim_ then<br />
the Court has the discretion to consider<br />
ifdelect olithis sort can bl deemed fatal<br />
and improper to constitute a strike out or<br />
an amendment to the title required. 7.4.<br />
I lowcver, in section 3 otthc Declaratory<br />
Judgment Act I988, it says that “No act<br />
or proceeding, in the Supreme Court<br />
shall be open to objection on the ground<br />
that mere declaratoryjudgment or order<br />
is sought thereby, and the Court<br />
may make binding declarations otright,<br />
whether a consequential relicfis or could<br />
be claime not.“ I .l MlTA”|’l()N ACT 1975<br />

section 2l(l) and 21(2) of the above Act<br />
is oppo by the Applicants because:<br />

Hurricanes will bring another level of<br />
intensity, warns Chiefs coach Dave Rennie<br />
against the Highlanders and the Blues.<br />
“We’ve got some good sevens, haven’t<br />
we?” Rennie said.<br />
“I know there were question marks<br />
over why we started Boshier last week<br />
and I think everyone got to see why.<br />
“I thought he was fantastic, but the<br />
likelihood is that we’ll start Sam [Cane]<br />
and one of those guys [Karpik or Boshier]<br />
will back up.”<br />
Rennie admitted Cane could play<br />
some time as a No 8, where Michael<br />
Leitch played on his return against the<br />
Blues, as he manages his back rowers<br />
throughout the year.<br />
“He played quite a lot at eight last year,<br />
finishing games off,” he said of Cane.<br />
“And he’s got a really good skill set<br />
and he understands the importance of<br />
the job in supporting the No 7.”<br />
The Chiefs name their team on<br />
Wednesday afternoon as they prepare<br />
to host the Hurricanes in Hamilton for<br />
the first time since 2014.<br />
Source : www.stuff.co.nz<br />
Dave Rennie believes the Hurricanes<br />
will raise the intensity from what the<br />
Chiefs have encountered in backto-back<br />
New Zealand derby wins in<br />
rounds one and two.<br />
After beating the Highlanders (24-15)<br />
and the Blues (41-26), the Hurricanes<br />
blow into Hamilton on Friday night for<br />
another blockbuster.<br />
Both sides have maximum points but<br />
by very different means, as the Hurricanes<br />
thumped the sorry Sunwolves<br />
83-17 in Tokyo and then rolled the<br />
Rebels 71-6 in Wellington on Saturday.<br />
Hosting the Super Rugby champions<br />
means the Chiefs are preparing for<br />
their third successive all-Kiwi clash<br />
that Rennie says they’ll have to step<br />
up for again, after looking back to their<br />
best against the Blues.<br />
“We’ve played two really good sides<br />
but we believe the Hurricanes bring<br />
another level of intensity and firepower,<br />
so it’s a big challenge,” the Chiefs<br />
coach said on Monday.<br />
“They’ll have variations on what<br />
they’re doing, but you get an idea of<br />
what they’ll bring and we’ll also focus<br />
on what we need to do.”<br />
The Chiefs are welcoming back cocaptain<br />
Sam Cane, who Rennie said<br />
was likely to start after recovering from<br />
an ankle injury.<br />
And apart from bumps and bruises,<br />
the Chiefs should have the same pool<br />
of players to choose from.<br />
The Hurricanes ended the Chiefs’<br />
hopes of glory last season with a 25-9<br />
semi-final victory on their way to a<br />
maiden title.<br />
Their defence has been sound up to<br />
now, after scoring 24 tries in putting<br />
the Sunwolves and the Rebels to the<br />
sword. Neither were good enough to<br />
expose any weaknesses.<br />
But the Chiefs did find the formula to<br />
win in Wellington last season (28-27 in<br />
April) and Rennie said the Hurricanes<br />
haven’t changed much from last year.<br />
“They’ll be confident because they’ve<br />
got a lot of structure on the park, and<br />
it’s going to be our job to test them with<br />
and without the ball,” he added.<br />
“They were the best side in the competition<br />
last year and they’ve got off to<br />
a flyer.<br />
“They do a good job defensively. They<br />
get in your face and have scored a lot<br />
of points from their rushed defence, as<br />
well as their ability to build phases and<br />
so on. They’ve got so much firepower.”<br />
What loose forwards to play is Rennie’s<br />
biggest selection headache ahead of<br />
Cane’s return, with both Mitch Karpik<br />
and Lachlan Boshier excelling in their<br />
respective starts at openside flanker<br />

David Haye undergoes Achilles surgery,<br />
Tony Bellew eyes Kiwi champ Joseph Parker<br />
DAVID Haye has undergone surgery on the Achilles tendon he ruptured during Saturday’s heavyweight defeat by fellow<br />
Briton Tony Bellew, his representatives have announced.<br />
Haye, 36, sustained the injury after<br />
slipping in the sixth round and fell to<br />
a surprise defeat in the 11th round<br />
when his corner threw the towel in<br />
after Bellew knocked him through the<br />
ropes.<br />
“David underwent surgery to his<br />
right Achilles this afternoon, after<br />
completely rupturing the tendon<br />
during Saturday night’s fight with<br />
Tony Bellew,” read a statement from<br />
Haye’s representatives released late<br />
on Sunday.<br />
“David would like to thank everyone<br />
for their many messages of support,<br />
as well as the staff at the hospital.”<br />
WBC cruiserweight champion Bellew,<br />
34, has revealed he broke his hand<br />
early in the fight.<br />
Bellew, who appeared in the 2015<br />
‘Rocky’ franchise film ‘Creed’, has revealed<br />
he is considering retirement,<br />
but says a big-money fight will be difficult<br />
to turn down.<br />
“I don’t know how many times more I<br />
can put my body and family through<br />
this,” Bellew told BBC Radio 5 Live.<br />
Asked whether he might retire, he<br />
replied: “It’s an option. It’s something<br />
I’m thinking about.”<br />
Bellew’s promoter Eddie Hearn said<br />
on Sunday that American WBC<br />
heavyweight champion Deontay<br />
Wilder and WBO champion Joseph<br />
Parker of New Zealand were potential<br />
future opponents for the Liverpudlian.<br />
“I have a lot of options,” Bellew said.<br />
“I don’t know what’s going to happen,<br />
but it will have to be something special.”<br />

Wing Vince Aso<br />
making every post<br />
a winner at the<br />
Hurricanes<br />
Cory Jane is back breathing down<br />
Vince Aso’s neck.<br />
If there’s been a pleasant surprise<br />
about the Hurricanes’ start to the<br />
Super Rugby season, it’s the form<br />
of Aso on the right wing.<br />
The 22-year-old’s ability to cover<br />
midfield and wing appeared as if<br />
it might make him an ideal bench<br />
candidate this year. But when Jane<br />
went down injured the day before<br />
the season-opener against the<br />
Sunwolves in Tokyo, Aso was elevated<br />
to the starting side.<br />
Aso scored two tries in that game,<br />
then a further brace in Saturday’s<br />
thrashing of the Rebels at Westpac<br />
Stadium.<br />
It wasn’t like he was just some<br />
bloke standing on the end of a<br />
chain not doing much, either. Aso’s<br />
played well and taken his tries very<br />
well too, thanks to a mixture of<br />
pace, strength and evasive skills.<br />
You might even say he’d made the<br />
No.14 jumper his own, if it weren’t<br />
for the fact Jane’s in contention<br />
to play Friday’s game against the<br />
Chiefs in Hamilton.<br />
Jane’s known for his chat, but Aso<br />
indicated that he hadn’t been inundated<br />
with advice from the former<br />
incumbent.<br />
“Not much. He just gives me a yarn<br />
or two and just says I’m doing a<br />
good job,” Aso said.<br />
“I just say ‘oh sweet, is there anything<br />
I could do?’ And [Jane says]<br />
‘nah, you’re doing all good’. He<br />
helps me out a bit if I’m not doing<br />
the right thing.”<br />
Aso reckoned the last time he<br />
played wing was in the Chris Boydcoached<br />
New Zealand under-20<br />
side. Boyd, now Hurricanes head<br />
coach, is a self-confessed admirer<br />
of Aso’s, but will have a decision to<br />
make now Jane’s over his neck injury.<br />
Jane’s talk and defensive ability<br />
could be a real asset against the<br />
Chiefs, who are likely to have the<br />
elusive James Lowe lurking on that<br />
wing.<br />
Beyond Jane, loosehead prop Loni<br />
Uhila is the other player back in<br />
the selection mix this week. He<br />
tweaked a calf at the Brisbane<br />
Global Tens and probably would’ve<br />
started the last two games otherwise.<br />
Scans of No.8 Blade Thomson’s<br />
dislocated shoulder are still being<br />
assessed, apparently, so there’s<br />
no word on whether he’ll be back<br />
shortly or face season-ending surgery.<br />

Warriors wing Ken Maumalo ready for<br />
Cooper Cronk's bombs<br />
Warriors winger Ken Maumalo says<br />
he’s preparing for an aerial assault<br />
from Cooper Cronk in Friday’s game<br />
against the Storm in Auckland.<br />
Maumalo has retained his place on<br />
the left wing for the Warriors’ second<br />
game of the season, keeping<br />
out Kiwi Manu Vatuvei and says he<br />
knows that the 2016 Dally M Medal<br />
winner will be coming after him at Mt<br />
Smart Stadium.<br />
“I’m preparing for that,” Maumalo<br />
said.<br />
“I know a lot of traffic is going to<br />
come my way with the high balls, because<br />
he’s the main kicker, so I’ve<br />
got to watch out.”<br />
The left edge defence did a good job<br />
against the Knights last weekend,<br />
not letting in any tries, but the Storm<br />
are expected to be a tougher challenge.<br />
“We’ve still got heaps to work on,”<br />
Maumalo said.<br />
“Solomone and I were working hard<br />
on it over the preseason and it’s only<br />
going to get better.<br />
“We know that this weekend the<br />
Storm will like to attack with Cooper<br />
Cronk, so they’ll come down our<br />
left side and we’ll need to be on our<br />
toes.”<br />
It says something of<br />
the high regard Warriors<br />
coach Stephen<br />
Kearney holds for<br />
Maumalo that he’s<br />
been selected ahead<br />
of Vatuvei.<br />
Kearney said the<br />
reason why Vatuvei<br />
played in the reserve<br />
grade NSW Cup last<br />
weekend was because<br />
he didn’t play<br />
in the trial games. But<br />
for Friday’s match, he<br />
wanted to stick with<br />
Maumalo and Tuimoala<br />
Lolohea on the other<br />
wing, because he was<br />
largely happy with how<br />
they played.<br />
“It’s good to know that the coach has<br />
got faith in me to play again,” Maumalo<br />
said.<br />
“So for me it’s about giving back to<br />
him and trying to perform well. Limit<br />
my errors and just doing my job really.”<br />
Maumalo has played 19 games for<br />
the Warriors since making his NRL<br />
debut in 2015. He has spent time<br />
bouncing up and down between the<br />
NRL and reserve grade team during<br />
that time, but feels at the age of 22,<br />
he’s ready to make his mark in first<br />
grade footy.<br />
“It didn’t get me down, it made me<br />
hungrier,” he said of the times he<br />
dropped to the NSW Cup team.<br />
“When I went down last year I wanted<br />
to play better and that made me<br />
mentally stronger. Going back down<br />
ended up being a massive confidence<br />
booster for me.”<br />
“This is my third year now and I’ve<br />
been in and out, this year I want to<br />
establish myself as a full NRL player.<br />
That’s my goal and I’m working hard<br />
towards it.”<br />

Tim Simona to face further charges from NRL<br />
The NRL is investigating Tim Simona’s<br />
dealing with a charity and<br />
whether he failed to forward it money<br />
raised from auction items.<br />
The 26-year-old is already facing a<br />
possible life ban over alleged gambling<br />
offences and has been stood<br />
down indefinitely.<br />
The Wests Tigers centre this week<br />
faced the NRL integrity unit to respond<br />
to the charges after being<br />
handed a notice to cancel his registration.<br />
During his interview he was also<br />
questioned about his dealings with a<br />
charity. An NRL spokesman said he<br />
was questioned about several social<br />
media posts relating to jerseys<br />
he was putting up for auction for the<br />
charity.<br />
He is facing scrutiny over whether<br />
the money was delivered to the<br />
charity. The NRL integrity unit has’t<br />
handed down its verdict and Simona<br />
is facing the prospect of being<br />
rubbed out of the game indefinitely.<br />
He has reportedly been accused<br />
of placing small bets on opposition<br />
players.<br />
NRL chief executive Todd Greenberg<br />
has maintained the game must<br />
take a strong stance on betting violations<br />
and match fixing.<br />
Channel Nine revealed that the NRL<br />
has asked Simona for details on the<br />
relationship between himself and<br />
the charity and want some transperancy<br />
on the trail of funds.<br />
“The spotlight will be turned onto<br />
Tim Simona’s relationship with at<br />
least one charity,” Weidler revealed<br />
on Nine News.<br />
“Simona has been auctioning off<br />
items such as jumpers and boots<br />
with a view to raising money. But he<br />
is now being grilled by the NRL for<br />
his activities.<br />
“More specifically about where the<br />
money raised from the items is going.”<br />
It’s understood the NRL has grave<br />
concerns whether all the money has<br />
made its way to the charity.<br />
Nine has sought comment from<br />
each charity, but those attempts<br />
were not returned.<br />
It’s believed the latest details will<br />
further strengthen the NRL’s case<br />
against Simona and Weilder revealed<br />
he is expected to receive an<br />
‘indefinite’ ban from the game.<br />

Auckland confirmed to host Joseph Parker's<br />
WBO world title defence against Hughie Fury<br />
Finally, after months of stalling and<br />
speculation, Joseph Parker has a<br />
date and venue for his first WBO<br />
world title defence.<br />
Nothing is ever simple in the world<br />
of boxing but Auckland’s Vector Arena,<br />
the same venue Parker claimed<br />
the title last December against Andy<br />
Ruiz, will host the Kiwi heavyweight<br />
and Manchester’s Hughie Fury on<br />
May 6.<br />
It’s been anything but smooth sailing<br />
just to get to this point, and the visitors<br />
aren’t out of the storm yet.<br />
From a convoluted purse bid, which<br />
will see Parker walk away with $1.8<br />
million (US) and Fury $1.2m (US), to<br />
doping allegations swirling around<br />
the unbeaten Briton and New Zealand<br />
immigration concerns facing his<br />
convicted father and trainer Peter,<br />
hold ups have been at every turn.<br />
Parker’s promoters, Duco Events,<br />
presented a letter from the British<br />
Boxing Board of Control on Wednesday<br />
stating Fury would not face a<br />
hearing for an alleged failed test for<br />
banned substance nandrolone in<br />
2015 before the Parker fight.<br />
Despite suggestions of a mid-April<br />
solution, almost two years after Fury’s<br />
alleged positive test it remains<br />
unclear when, or if, the hearing<br />
which also implicates his cousin, former<br />
champion Tyson Fury, will ever<br />
take place.<br />
“It’s dealing with allegations we know<br />
little about and it’s further down the<br />
track which means we can promote<br />
this fight unencumbered,” Duco promoter<br />
David Higgins said. “These<br />
are allegations that float around not<br />
just boxing but many sports. Sometimes<br />
they’re proven; sometimes<br />
they’re not. That’ll be dealt with<br />
in the future. Our job is to stage a<br />
world title defence and the result will<br />
stand.”<br />
Having originally penciled in the<br />
mandatory Fury fight for early April,<br />
Parker’s camp are relieved the<br />
event is now set in stone. While a<br />
cloud hangs over whether Fury was<br />
clean in his 20 previous pro fights,<br />
this time around he will have to be.<br />
The contract for the fight signed by<br />
Parker and Fury submits to WADA<br />
testing,” Higgins said. “Hughie<br />
is coming. His purse is massive.<br />
It’s more than Deontay Wilder got<br />
[$900,000 US] for his recent [WBC]<br />
title fight. It will be the biggest payday<br />
of his career by a country mile,<br />
and a shot at the WBO heavyweight<br />
title so we’re on.”<br />
Distractions for the Fury<br />
camp will be on-going. Peter<br />
has engaged lawyers as<br />
he attempts to gain a special<br />
exemption and character<br />
waiver to gain entry to New<br />
Zealand due to an extensive<br />
criminal history that includes<br />
10 years behind bars for possession<br />
and intent to supply<br />
amphetamine.<br />
“Who is in his corner is not our problem.<br />
I had a look at it and they’re<br />
from decades ago and there was<br />
nothing in my view that was heinous.<br />
Yeah there were some criminal convictions<br />
for sure but since then if you<br />
look at his work he’s devoted himself<br />
to training heavyweight champion<br />
boxers. I’m relaxed about it.”<br />
Higgins said Duco were essentially<br />
told not to bother applying for Auckland<br />
council support but were awaiting<br />
feedback on a submission for<br />
government funding. The Samoan<br />
government may also be involved<br />
again. Approaches from three major<br />
UK broadcasters - ITV, British Telecom<br />
and Sky Sport UK - have already<br />
landed, while Top Rank’s Bob<br />
Arum will sell the US rights.<br />
“We are in discussions. We don’t<br />
know where that is going. It would<br />
be great to get them [NZ government]<br />
on board because it’s such<br />
a platform. Most major sports from<br />
rugby to cricket to rowing have had<br />
some support at some level. I don’t<br />
think boxing has. We’re not counting<br />
our chickens and I don’t want to preempt<br />
any process so we’ll see what<br />
happens.”<br />
Should Parker get past Fury as most<br />
expect, his immediate future is likely<br />
to be in the buoyant UK market. If<br />
successful in May, Higgins indicated<br />
Parker would target the winner<br />
of Anthony Joshua and Wladimir<br />
Klitschko, with Wilder and Tony<br />
Bellew, who upset David Haye last<br />
week, also options.<br />
“Some people say we’re like the boy<br />
who cried wolf with it being the last<br />
fight in New Zealand. Well, it might<br />
be for a while. After this, if Joe beats<br />
Fury, he might suddenly be fighting<br />
Anthony Joshua at Wembley.”<br />
