People's Party (Samoa)
The People's Party (TPP) is a Samoan political party. It was founded in July 2008[1] by campaigners from People Against Switching Sides,[2] protesting against legislation aimed at changing the side of the road driven on (from right to left). The party's chairman is Tole’afoa Solomona To’ailoa,[3] who has stated that he does not intend to be the party's leader.[4] According to To'ailoa, the party "will not be focusing on the road change only but [...] will be focusing on all the other issues which are affecting the lives of our people right now."[4][5]
