Chinese evacuees from
riot-ravaged Tonga arrive at an
airport in Xiamen, Southeast China's Fujian Province November 23, 2006. Riots
triggered by a disputed parliamentary reform move broke out in Tonga's capital
Nuku'alofa last week, in which eight people were reportedly killed and 80 per
cent of the central business district destroyed. About 30 Chinese-run stores
were looted or burned down. [Newsphoto]
