Muamua ona si’i le fa’afetai i le Atua…
Translation: "I would first like to give thanks to God…"
This familiar phrase reveals an insightful fact about all Samoans; they love and openly recognize the hand of God in their lives. It is used as greeting and even in politics.
The public seal for Samoa bears the following motto: Fa’avae i le Atua Samoa (God be the Foundation of Samoa). The Amerika Samoa motto states: Samoa Muamua le Atua (Samoa, God is first)
Im certainly learning alot about the culture!
