Best Answer

Chiefs are not selected as may be the case in other Polynesian societies. Also there are no longer any "High Chiefs" as there were in the past, but they have been replaced by Nobles which is pretty much one and the same. To become a Noble, one has to born into Hou'eiki (Chiefly) class and then be appointed a Noble title by the reigning monarch. Social Mobility in Tonga is rare.
