Image description

A young girl hangs signs on the main street of the Tongan capital Nuku'alofa December 29 stating that the small South Pacific country will be the first place in the world where the new millennium will begin. The King of Tonga, His Majesty Taufa'ahau Tupou IV, decreed that his country would adopt daylight saving on October 1,1999, advancing clocks by one hour ahead of neighbouring Fiji and New Zealand, saying 'it will mean that Tongans' prayers will reach God first'.
