Mika Tufuga-Valai | The Bittersweet Journey of This Samoan Boy
Like any other culture, Samoa has its’ own traditions and customs that makes us different and unique. In my book “The Bittersweet Journey of This Samoan Boy,” I credit the traditions and customs of my Samoa for establishing a solid foundation for me at a young age. My parents insisted that my brothers and sisters and I deeply understand the importance of our Samoa and made sure that we lived it on a daily basis when we were still there. We did, and today I am even more grateful to my parents for such eternal knowledge. However, there are some traditions and practices that I had experienced that, at the time it had occurred, proved very painful, but when reflecting upon it, brings laughter that almost chokes me to death.

Asia-Pacific growth to slow down - report
Economic growth in the Asia-Pacific region will slow to 3.7 percent year-on-year this year from 4.9 percent last year, while inflation will become a bigger concern, a major regional think-tank has forecast.
China will continue to drive the region’s economy and grow by 9.6 percent this year, down from 11.4 percent last year, according to the report by the Pacific Economic Cooperation Council (PECC). It will account for more than 40 percent of Asia-Pacific economic growth.
