The President of Vanuatu dissolved the Vanuatu Parliament on 18th November 2024. Marking the second dissolution of the Vanuatu Parliament in his two years of Presidency!! This just months after a VT350 million referendum that followed previous a snap election!! Ridiculous!!
South Africa, the nation of Nelson Mandela, one of our greatest allies, has invoked the genocide convention and brought forth proceedings against Israel at the International Court of Justice. No one knows apartheid like those who fought it before. May Palestine too soon be free.

Today @FijiPM called @bimanprasad an "Indo-Fijian". You see, this fakery of "We're all Fijians" goes out the door when Frank goes off script.
Fijifirst was never about the people, it was always about keeping Frank in power.

Late: New Vanuatu Government hit with ransomware attack - the timing of this though!! 😳🤔
A con of central servers demonstrated here.
After this attack, cybersecurity should be prioritized - actual cybersecurity not crackdowns over Facebook posts.
Happy International Literacy Day to all 📚 ✏️
Literacy is an essential life skill for learning and to thrive in life.

There is much reference to “Indo-Pacific” and less on “Blue Pacific Continent”. In my view the former is oriented around military security whereas the latter focus on human security. Former focus on the benefits of others while the latter focus on the benefits of Pacific people.
Have you ever wondered why #Indonesia's government bans NGOs like Amnesty International, the Red Cross & Peace Brigades International from West Papua? It's a genocide cover-up. #WonderfulIndonesia
In April 2020, West Papuan human rights activists Ambrosius Mulait and Dano Tabuni were found guilty of 'treason' by an Indonesian court and imprisoned to 9 months after organising a peaceful protest against racist abuse they had received.
Three lads who were brilliant all summer had the courage to step up & take a pen when the stakes were high. They deserve support & backing not the vile racist abuse they’ve had since last night. If you abuse anyone on social media you’re not an @England fan and we don’t want you.
