The Fiji Times published a story of the biggest Great Council of Chiefs meeting held at Lakeba, Lau, on May 17 1978.
It was reported that the late Governor General, Ratu Sir George Cakobau, opened the meeting.
It was overcast but fine weather prevailed that day. Ratu Sir George was accorded a traditional ceremony rarely seen at the time.
Before his arrival, silence fell upon the chiefly village of Tubou, the home of the Tui Lau and Tui Nayau, the late Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara.
