AS A TONGAN; A BLESSING OR CURSE??

As a Tongan, who is very proud and love this country very much. I have doubts about the way we live, socialize, think, do business and appreciate things. Its like a question of my own core background. Why do we have to be hypocrites to fit in to a world of Tongans?? Professionalism? I do not think there is such a thing in this country. As I grew up in the villages, it has been very much taught that we have to respect our elders meaning that; even if they make wrong decisions and even if we youngsters reckon their mistakes, we cannot tell them what to do?? Can you believe it? We were also taught that you cannot make decisions even when we already know what to do. elders tell us to do that do this, as we make mistakes we are whipped on the spot. If they are doing the same stuff we were doing, they make mistakes they just let it be at that. Is this why we were born to be Tongans? May be some people of other nationalities, may tell us that we seem tough and all, NO we are just dead-nerved because of all the treating we got.
