"For the Tonga people like me, there is something deeply biblical about the word MULONGA, yet it is a modern story too. One of massive but unshared technology. One of plentiful water but perpetual drought."

In 2002 Tonga.Online project has been recognised with a "honorary mention" award in the Net Excellence category and was invited to take part at the Ars Electronica Festival from 7 -12 September in Linz. This has provided the project with a platform for reflection and interactive communication and has been contributing to more attention and support for the Tonga community in Austria and worldwide.
The festival has invited Keith Goddard from Kunzwana Trust / Harare to attend and present his views of the digital divide and the Tonga.Online project at the symposium "UN/PLUGGED - Art as the Scene of Global Conflict".
