Sala Tiatia

Matai'a Salatielu "Sala" Tiatia is a contestant from .
Sala started in a stable position with several strong relationships with his Mogotón tribemates. His alliances with Lou McClintock, Shay Tapusoa, and Avi Duckor-Jones kept his status strong even after the tribe swap, in addition to his new friendships with Barb Raos and Nate Davis. After the merge, his newfound yet strong relationship with Shannon Quinn kept them within the majority, but a blindside organized by Barb sent Sala to Redemption Island. He lost his first duel against Mike Sparrow, leaving him in 9th place overall.

Full Name: Matai'a Salatielu Tiatia
Age: 40

Occupation: Youth Worker
Sala works with troubled youth, who have fallen through the cracks of the schooling system. 
He looks rough and ready, with his strong physique and dreadlocks, but he has a heart of gold.

He could easily be taken advantage of in this game though, his willingness to trust people could be his undoing.http://web.archive.org/web/20170602122108if_/https://www.tvnz.co.nz/shows/survivor-new-zealand/contestants/sala
