Summary:
The outer islands of Tonga are home to a significant proportion of Tonga's population. The Government of Tonga sees the provision of improved infrastructure services, including basic electrification facilities, as an important factor in creating a more attractive environment in the outer islands, thus helping to mitigate urban drift to the main island, and overseas. The Tongan Government asked New Zealand to fund an electrification feasibility study for the Niua islands.
