Some years ago Mr Laws was the head of our then Legislative Department. As he was born to be.

The Samoan Prime Minister must have a defective sense of humour.

His Minister of Telecommunications has a no doubt worthy but unexceptional Samoan name. Lurking next to the Minister of Telecommunications in the Ministerial list is the Deputy PM and Minister of Commerce, one Misa Telefoni Retzlaff.

How could the PM pass that opportunity?
