News out of Tonga

Postby jaffa1949 » Mon Jan 17, 2022 12:48 pm

Haatafu Surf Resort where Uncle Jaffa stayed has been totally wiped out, no news whether Steve Burling and his wife Sesika are OK, I hope everybody on the Western Side of the Tongatapu are safe and beginning recovery ! :shock:

A little more news, all the family and the family of workers at Haatafu Beach Resort are safe but their work and home possessions gone!
Same for all the homes and families on the west coast of Tongatapu! :shock:

I was waiting for news since apparently communications aren't very good with Tonga right now. Thanks for the report
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.
