The coronation of Tonga's King George Tupou the fifth looks like going ahead next week without any risk of political unrest. That's according to the leader of the Kingdom's pro-democracy movement, Akilisi Pohiva. He says the fact that a bill to set up commission which will set up a more representative parliament has just been passed by both government and peoples representatives has made all sides of politics happy.
