Hili ʻa e mālōlō mei he ngāueʻangá, ʻoku kei mālohi pe ʻa Peemi Mamūnī, Seini Fēlī, mo Makeleta Lenani ʻElisi ke fakakaungāmeʻa ki he ngaahi tui fakalotu kotoa pē mo fakatahaʻi honau ngaahi tukui kolo takitaha ʻi ʻAositelēliá.
ʻI heʻenau hoko ko e kāingalotu ʻo e Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻo e Kau Māʻoniʻoni ʻi he Ngaahi ʻAho Kimui Ní, ʻoku nau feinga ke moʻui ʻaki ʻa e ongo fekau maʻongoʻonga ʻo e ʻofa ki he ʻOtuá mo e kaungāʻapí mo fakahaaʻi ʻa e founga ʻoku tuʻuloa ai hono ʻomi ʻe he tukupā ko ʻení ha maama mo ha fiefia kiate kinautolu pea mo e māmani ʻoku nau ʻi aí.
Kuo hoko ʻa Peemi, ʻa ia ʻokú ne taʻu 89 ʻi he taʻu ní, ko ha mēmipa ʻo e Fakataha Alēlea ʻo e Ngaahi Tui Fakalotu ʻi Dandenong ʻo laka hake ʻi he taʻu ʻe 30. Ko ha fuofua mēmipa mo e palesiteni ʻo e niʻihi naʻa nau fokotuʻu ʻa e Casey Interfaith Network ʻi Vikatōliá, naʻá ne pehē ʻoku lelei ʻa e “ʻaʻahi ki he ngaahi feituʻu faiʻanga lotú” maʻá e ngaahi ʻapiakó, kau politikí mo e kakaí ki hono fakatupulaki ʻa e femahinoʻaki ʻa e ngaahi tui fakalotú.
ʻI he taimi naʻe fakafepakiʻi ai ʻe he kakai ʻo e feituʻú hono langa ʻo e falelotu fakalotofonua ʻo e kau mosilemí, naʻe fakahā ʻe Peemi ʻene poupoú ʻi ha polokalama televisione SBS. Naʻe pehē ʻe Peemi, “ʻOku tokolahi hoku ngaahi kaungāmeʻa Mosilemí. ʻOku ou saiʻia ʻi he ʻalu ki he maʻu meʻatokoni efiafi vete ʻaukaí (Iftar), tautautefito ʻi honau ngaahi ʻapi fakafāmilí.”
Koeʻuhí ko e takimuʻa fakalaumālie ʻa Peemi ʻi hono fakatupulaki ʻo e mahinó ʻi he ngaahi tui fakalotú moe anga fakafonuá, naʻe foaki ai kiate ia ʻa e pale The Order of Australia ki heʻene kau ʻi he ngaahi ngāue fakakoló, fakataha alēleá, mo e siasí.
ʻOkú ne pehē, “Ko ʻeku tokoni maʻongoʻonga taha ki he Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ko hono tokoniʻi kotoa ʻeku fānau ʻe toko nimá ke nau ngāue fakafaifekau lolotonga ʻeku hoko ko ha faʻē tāutahá.”
Ko e ngāue tokoni maʻá e komiunitií ʻoku saiʻia taha ai ʻa Pēmí ko e University of the Third Age, ʻa ia ʻokú ne akoʻi ai ha kalasi fakauike ʻo e Current Affairs (Ngaahi Meʻa ʻoku Lolotonga Hoko ʻi he Funga ʻo e Māmaní). Naʻá ne toe kaungā fokotuʻutuʻu foki ha kulupu ʻoku nau vaʻinga ʻi he vaʻinga pele 500 ʻi he uike takitaha pea naʻá ne ʻi he kōmiti ʻekitivitī ʻi he nofoʻanga maʻá e kau toulekeleka ʻi hono koló ʻo tokoni ki hono fokotuʻutuʻu ʻa e ngaahi efiafi mūsiká mo e ngaahi ʻekitivitī feinga paʻangá.
Ko e taʻu eni hono fā ʻa e ngāue ʻa Seini Fēlī mei ʻapi ko ha Faifekau Fakafetuʻutaki ʻa e Siasí. ʻOkú ne pehē, “Naʻe ʻikai fuoloa kuo hoko ia ko e konga lelei taha ʻo ʻeku moʻuí”.
ʻOku maʻu ʻe Seini ha meʻafoaki ke fehokotaki mo e kakaí fakaemāmani lahi. Naʻá ne manatuʻi ʻene mahuʻingaʻia ʻi he ongoongó ʻi heʻene kei taʻu hivá. Kimui aí, ʻi heʻene fononga ki ʻĒsia mo ʻene ongomātuʻá peá ne talanoa ki ha houʻeiki fafine tokolahi lolotonga ʻenau fefonongaʻakí, naʻá ne fanongo ai ki hano ʻeke ange ʻe heʻene tamaí ki heʻene faʻeé, “Okú ne ʻilo fēfē ʻa e fefiné? . . . Ko hai ʻoku lolotonga talanoa mo ia ʻi he taimi ní?”
Naʻe aʻu ʻo tohi ʻa Seini kia Kuini ʻElisapeti II, ʻo talamonū ki ai ʻi hono fanauʻi ʻo Pilinisi ʻEtuaté, peá naʻe maʻu ha tali ʻo ʻene tohí.
Naʻe līʻoa ʻa e moʻui ʻa Seiní ki he niʻihi kehé, mei hono tufaki ʻo e “Meals on Wheels” ki hono talitali ʻo e fānau ako ʻe toko 64 ʻi heʻene hoko ko ha “Faʻē Nofo ʻApí.”
Naʻe liliu ʻene moʻuí ʻi heʻene ofo hake ʻi he Falemahaki Pilinisi Sālesí ʻi Pilisipeini mo ha ongo foʻi tiupi ki he mafú. ʻI heʻene hoko ko ha taha mahakí, naʻá ne ʻohovale ke toe moʻui mo lava ke ngāue, pea naʻe lue takai ʻa Seini ʻi he falemahakí ʻo ʻaʻahi ki ha kau mahaki kehe.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Seini “ʻOku ou ongoʻi ha loto-houngaʻia lahi mo tuʻuloa, ko ha meʻaʻofa maʻongoʻonga ke maʻu ʻa e ngaahi ʻaho mo e taʻu lahi ko ʻení. Kuó u maʻu ha ʻilo mahuʻinga ki he mamahí mo e faʻa kātakí pea kuó u manavaʻofa ʻi ha ngaahi founga ʻoku ʻikai keu tui naʻe mei lava ke u maʻu mei ha toe aʻusia kehe.”
Neongo ko e ngaahi taʻu kimuʻá naʻá ne hoko ko ha faʻē taautaha ki ha fānau kei iiki ʻe toko ua, ka kuo ngāue ʻa Seini ki he kautaha fakalotofonua ʻa e kakai fefine ʻo e siasí pea naʻe tokoni ʻi hono faʻu ha ngaahi konifelenisi mo ha toko 1500. ʻI he ʻaho ní, ʻokú ne vakaiʻi hono ngaahi kaungāmeʻa naʻe tafá, ngaohi ha supo moa maʻanautolu ʻoku puke ʻi he flu, pea mo faʻa fetuʻutaki ki he ngaahi kaungāmeʻa fakaemāmani lahí. Neongo ʻene faʻa helaʻiá, ka ʻokú ne pehē, “Ko ha konga angamaheni pē ʻeni ʻo e ʻaho kotoa pē. Kuo mahino kiate au ʻa e meʻa ʻoku ou mahamahalo ki ai ko hoku misiona ʻi he moʻuí; kuo ʻi ai ha ngaahi momeniti lahi kuó ne fakamahinoʻi eni.”
Naʻe ngāue tokoni ʻa Makeleta Lenani ʻElisi ki hono siasí ko ha mataotao ʻi he fetuʻutaki mo e kakaí, ʻi he taimi naʻe fakafatongiaʻaki ia ke fekumi mo kau ki heʻene kautaha ʻo e ngaahi tui fakalotu fakalotofonua ʻi he komiunitií. ʻI he ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha kautaha pehē ʻi Palalati, Vikatōliá, naʻá ne fokotuʻu ai ʻa e Ballarat Interfaith Network (BIN). Ko hono taumuʻá ke fakahaaʻi ʻetau fehokotaki ko e konga ʻo e fāmili ʻo e tangatá, fakalahi ʻa e mahinó mo hono langa ha ngaahi hala fakakavakava ʻi he vā ʻo e ngaahi tui fakalotú, filōsefá, mo e ngaahi fakakaukau fakalaumālié. ʻI he taʻu ʻe 20 kuohilí, kuo hanga ai ʻe he ngaahi polokalama ʻa e BIN ʻo langa hake ʻa e feohi fakakaungāmeʻá, fakaʻapaʻapá, melinó, ʻofá, mo e ngāue tokoni ki he ʻOtuá mo e niʻihi kehé.
Naʻe tokoni ʻa Makeleta ke kamataʻi ʻa e “Friendship Walks” ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e falelotu Mosilemí, falelotu faka-Siú mo e ngaahi siasi Fakakalisitiane ʻi he koló.

ʻI he fakahinohino ʻa Makeletá, naʻe fakahoko ai ʻe he Siasi ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí ha fakaʻaliʻali hiva fakataʻu ʻi he ngaahi falelotu lalahi (cathedrals) fakalotofonuá, ʻa ia ʻoku kau ai ʻa e ngaahi kuaea fakalotu mo ʻikai fakalotú. “ʻOku fonu maʻu pē ʻa e Falelotu Lalahí, pea ko ha ongo fakafiefia mo fakamāfana ʻokú ne ʻomi pea taʻe-hano-tatau ʻi he hiva fakaʻosi ʻa e ngaahi kuaea fakatahatahá.”
Naʻe maʻu ʻe he kau fafine ʻe toko tolu ko ʻení ʻa e ngaahi lea ʻa Palesiteni Hauati W. Hanitaá, ʻa ia naʻá ne pehē, “Ko hotau fatongiá ke feinga ke fakalahi ʻa e siakale ʻo e ʻofá mo e mahinó ʻi he kakai kotoa ʻo e māmaní.”
