Ata Tabeuta
 Before the introduction of the whip, drunkards cause a lot of trouble, stealing and sexual abuse is very high. But today, you hardly see anybody drinking alcohol and causing disturbance around the community. Everyone fears the whip. That?s a good thing about it. |
| But nobody will oppose that because there is already an unanimous decision by community members that offenders must be whipped. If a person tries to oppose the whip system, that person too would be arrested and whipped immediately for his or her opposition. |
| In here, nobody is above the coconut branch whip if you break community laws. Whether you?re are chief, a priest, a tough guy, a mother, a child or a visitor, we are all subjected to the coconut branches if we break the law. |
| Normally, the community?s muscle men are chosen to carry out the whip. |
| The whip system has also helped the police officers on the island to enjoy their sweat-less job here. |
| This restriction is imposed because there is a conventional belief that when youths get together in groups at night, they would usually plan crimes such as stealing or get involved in alcohol, drugs, and sexual abuse. |
