So the Taiwanese 🇹🇼 Monument at the National Referral Hospital (Honiara) is removed for reasons unknown. Will find out.
Taiwan actually built the Hospital decades ago, and so as their monument stands, now removed.

A recent report found that 89% of #IUUfishing in the Pacific occurs in purse-seine fisheries but, with more valuable catch targets, longline fisheries make up more than half of revenue loss. Read @ronald_toitoona's piece on TunaPacific for more findings: https://t.co/oqgi4EQi4M

WCPFC froze #catch and effort limits for #albacore #tuna in southern #Pacific. It was a big win for @TunaFFA. @ronald_toitoona reports why it is important: https://t.co/XW5yPn25Nz

Top-priority #tuna #Conservation and Management Measure has been extended for another 2 years, after negotiation at the 18th #WCPFC meeting. But, says #FFA DG Dr Manu Tupou-Roosen, more work needed to make the scheme more effective https://t.co/WHZfAMgRN6 @ronaldtoitoona @wcpfc
