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.
