Ne u ongoʻi mālohi e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní mo e ʻofa hotau Fakamoʻui ko Sīsū Kalaisí.”

ʻOkú ne pehē, ne fakamālohia ʻe heʻeku feohi mo e toʻu tupu kehe ʻo e Siasí ʻeku loto falala fakatāutahá. “Kimuʻa he FSY, ne ʻikai ke u sio ki he ngaahi meʻa lelei mo fakaʻofoʻofa ne ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtuá maʻatautolu mo e ngaahi palani ʻokú Ne kei fokotuʻutuʻu maʻatautolú.”

ʻOku pehē ʻe Manase A., taʻu 17, “ʻOku ʻikai totonu ke uesia kitautolu ʻe ha taha pe ko ha toe meʻa kehe hotau ʻātakaí ʻa ia ʻe feinga ke tohoakiʻi kitautolu mei hono moʻui ʻaki e ongoongoleleí. ʻOku tatau ʻa e ongoongoleleí he feituʻu kotoa pē pea ʻoku totonu ke tau nofo maʻu pē ʻi he hala totonú.”
