Concerning of the government not having other investment decision to improve the economic condition, schooling and Ministries. This is the outcome as people in the society seek ways to equity but for the fact of investment.

ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
This article discussion is about how Tongans working overseas help growing the Tongan economy as believed by the Minister of Finance Hon. Tevita Lavemaau. This occurs at certain points like new income package, investment and population growing. The economic development is growing via “robust” by the support of global and regional economies with the expected rate of economic growth to be 3.4 % at 2017/2018.
The business cycle concern of some events symbolling of series of waves. Starting with “Growth” up to a time that reach “Peak” then goes to” Downturn” and reaching the bottom is “Trough” as the business is to shut-down rule.
DIAGRAM
The article shows Growth in business cycle are supported from construction projects somehow also known called as “recovery”, expansion or upturn as we notice this by the business willing to engage in expenditure, goods and assets looks very cheap, interest rates are low. The growth phase cannot forever-go but believes this is where the business doing investing as reaching the Peak, as the economy anticipated to increase at an average 2.8 % in mid-term with the help of Tourism for like the operation of Tanoa International Dateline Hotel in Tongatapu and the still single cultural contributor Kava-Tonga at 71.4 % over past years. It exists when theirs high level of borrowing, debt and price of the asset, feelings of great confidence in terms of bordering, high level of employment and inflation rate leading to a large balance of payments deficit. Downturn is like having uncertainty as expenditure and demand falls in confidence. For this happening, the business would cut employment and production resulting in low level of income as price of food items increase due to seasonal factors. The Trough phase is a general feeling of suspicion and fear. As the Kingdoms’ indebtedness to China forecasting borrowing for 2019/2020 to TP$48.7 million with repayment $25.4 million to cast of long shadow, individuals fearing of job losses, wages cut and bankruptcy, not willing to spend, leads to delaying of spending not urgent but concentrating on survival instead not decreasing debts and saving for any weather condition.
