Focus on Zimbabwe

On the eve of the Presidential elections on 9th/10th March the focus of our attention is on Zimbabwe. We stay in solidarity with our friends and the people on the ground: may the vote and will of the people be respected and decide the direction how to overcome the current crisis: We still hope that the winner will take on his responsibility to lead the country wisely and that the looser will accept defeat without causing havoc and bloodshed.

We are closely watching the course of events and trying the best to reflect it on discussion here (see Forum).

Welcome to TONGA.ONLINE: www.mulonga.net!

WWW.MULONGA.NET IS LAUNCHED.
Today, Sunday 25th March, 2001, the website www.mulonga.net has been launched. It will be hosted free of charge by SILVER SERVER in Vienna / Austria. This event marks a step forward for the TONGA.ONLINE project, which aims at promoting a Tonga Voice on the Internet. At the same time, a mobile Internet Centre, THE BIG BLUE VAN of World Links for Development WorLD, is about to start its tour in the Tonga area in Binga / Zimbabwe with further stops in Manjolo, Siansundu and Siachilaba. This will provide - at least temporarily - an Internet access for the Tonga community with the goal to lobby support for a permanent Centre. Check it out and take a chance to communicate with(in) the TONGA community!
