Fineasi Funaki (1966 – 13 November 2010)[1] was a Tongan politician and cabinet Minister. He was a member of the Human Rights and Democracy Movement.

Funaki was educated at Tonga College and the Tongan teachers' training college, before studying at Brigham Young University–Hawaii.[2] He was elected People's Representative for Ha'apai at the 2005 election. He was appointed Minister of Tourism in May 2006,[3] and was reappointed after the 2008 election. In January 2008 he was accused of corruption after depositing a cheque from the Chinese Embassy to the Ministry into his personal bank account.[4] A subsequent report from the Auditor-General found that he had broken the law by depositing a cheque from the Chinese Embassy into his personal bank account and recommended that he be asked to resign.[5] Prime Minister Feleti Sevele refused the recommendation of asking for Funaki's resignation, blaming the misappropriation of funds on inexperience,[6] but Funaki forfeited his salary for three months and was forced to apologise.[7]

Funaki resigned from Cabinet in September 2010 due to ill-health.[1] He died in Suva while undergoing treatment later that year.[1]
