Excellent to have a roundtable meeting with the Cabinet of Tonga as part of Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters’ multi-country visit to the Pacific. We covered a broad range of topics, including strengthening climate resilience and transitioning to renewable energy.

While in Nuku’alofa, the Deputy Prime Ministers of Tonga and New Zealand launched a maritime safety campaign: ā€œBe Ready, Be Safe.ā€ The programme aims to increase community awareness of maritime safety practices and use of safety in equipment.

While in Tonga with the delegation, I got to stop by the Tonga Health Secondary Schools Athletics and catch the girls intermediate 100m final. Great energy and plenty of support from the crowd!

On the ground in Honolulu with the New Zealand delegation. We were warmly welcomed and spent time today at the USS Missouri, reflecting on the shared history and sacrifices New Zealand and the United States have made to support peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific.

It was a pleasure to meet with Japanese Ambassador Makota Osawa at Parliament. We discussed renewable energy cooperation and opportunities for our economies to work together as we transition to net zero.
