QuoteCrown Prince Tupouto'a ' Ulukalala of Tonga and his older sister Princess Lātūfuipeka ʻ Tuku aho in Nuku'alofa Thursday have visited an exhibition where the story is told of the first visits of Dutch explorers to the Pacific Islands group. They got a personal tour of the Dutch Ambassador Rob Zaagman.

It is 400 years ago this year that the Dutch SA Willem Cornelisz Schouten and Jacob Le Maire as first Westerners landed on the coast of Niutoputapu, one of the Northern Islands of Tonga. That is the reason for the exhibition. Abel Tasman in 1643 also visited in the Islands, but there were no settlements founded.
