    Extractions: The Tongan Tattoo by Tricia Allen The mans tattoo in Tonga was done in the same manner as the Samoan tattoo. The tool itself was a sharpened comb, made of either bone or shell. This was hafted onto a wooden handle. A second wooden tool served as a mallet, tapping the primary tool repeatedly, driving the comb into the skin. The pigment was soot collected from burning candlenut, a nut with a flameable oil. The soot was then mixed with either water or a fat until it reached the desired consistancy. The process of tatttooing in ancient Tonga was a long and painful one, particularly considering the amount of heavy black coverage in the tattoo. It was definately a mark of manhood. Interview with Aisea Toetuu For the past ten years, my life has revolved around Polynesian tattooing. During this time I have only encountered two Tongan tattooists. In fact, most Tongans today are totally unaware of the fact that Tongans at one time were as heavily tattooed as most other Polynesians. One young tattooist, Aisea Toetuu is working hard to change that. He is the first one in nearly 200 years to wear the traditional Tongan tattoo. Perhaps the most impressive thing about Aisea is that he did the tattoo himself using traditional tools. He tapped the design into his own skin and taught his young wife to tattoo so that she could complete his backside. TA: Aisea, what is your background? Where are you from?

Pacific News Member of Culture Gallery Introduction ANGLONESIA Anglonesia is a neologism used here to refer to Australia New Zealand and the United States in the Pacific (ANZUS). The progress from colonialism to independence in the Pacific Islands region (both north and south of the equator) has not brought an end to the influence of the former colonial powers. Presently, there are ten territories or dependencies linked directly to an extraregional government, and five others are constrained in their foreign policies by the terms of their free associaton compacts. Like these territories, the independent states are also affected by the political, security and economic policies of the extraregional powers. There continues to be an overlap of interests between outsiders and islanders, which is likely to persist even as more island stated begin to exert their influence more and more within the region as well as globally.

For the tenth periodic report of Tonga and the summary records of the meetings at which the Committee considered that report, see documents CERD/C/209/Add.5 and CERD/C/SR.1006. I. GENERAL 1. The International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination is recognized by the Government of the Kingdom of Tonga. However, the Convention has yet to be incorporated by the Legislative Assembly as part of the Laws of Tonga. 2. The Constitution of Tonga is the basis of the Government for the Kingdom, and appropriately it has been incorporated as law under the Act of Constitution of Tonga (Cap. 2). Part I deals with the Declaration of Rights and thus the Act expressly guarantees and protects fundamental human rights of the individual. In so doing, the Act thus establishes a legal framework which expressly discourages and prohibits any form of racial discrimination.
