PICAN highlighted the urgency of the crisis faced by our region and looking to #COP30, stressed the importance of the inclusion of Indigenous People We also stressed the significance of aligning the GST timelines with the IPCC and progressing on climate finance discussions.

Looking to a terror state to combat the illicit drug trade - Fiji’s coalition government seems determined to build its legacy on short-sighted desperation, moral vacuity, and disregard for international law.

February 2023: Melanesian solidarity with West Papua May 2025: Indonesian sovereignty on West Papua The most craven, vacillating “leadership” I have ever witnessed in my lifetime.

It’s one thing to accept independence when it’s handed to you — it’s another to fight for it while those in power resist change and cling to control. Oufff this tweet is super disappointing for so many reasons.
