How Savali News serves Samoa

Three standing commitments hold the paper together: a weekly file in two languages, a monthly Samoan issue of record, and an archive that reaches back to the country’s first printed page.

Weekly bilingual file

Every week’s reporting runs in English and Samoan, so a story reaches the village fono and the office desk in the same words.

About Savali News

This month in print

This month’s Samoan Edition

The monthly Samoan-language issue gathers reporting written for readers who follow the news in their own language.

This issue follows the work of village councils and district committees, the decisions being weighed in the fono, and the ordinary business of families and enterprises across Upolu and Savai’i. The reporting is written first in Samoan rather than translated after the fact, so the detail that matters to a village stays in the telling.

Alongside the news pages, the edition carries notices and updates from the Land and Titles Court, the record many families watch closely for matters touching customary land and the succession of matai titles. Readers who cannot reach a printed copy can follow the same material here.
