Description

On August 13 1970 Tāufaʻāhau Tupou IV visited New Zealand. He was the King of Tonga from 1965 until his death in 2006. On 15 August 2006, Tongan Prime Minister Feleti Sevele interrupted radio and television broadcasts to announce that the King was gravely ill in the Mercy Hospital in Auckland and to ask the 104,000 people of the island chain to pray for their King but he died almost a month later, at 23:34 on 10 September 2006. He was 88 and head reigned for 41 years.

The item shown here is from a Department of Internal Affairs series related to Royal Tours and distinguished visitors, series 8363. The series contains menus and official programmes for the visits of various world leaders, such as the Shah of Iran and Hammer de Robert of Nauru.
