ffs more visa places for Vanuatu? what about our own people sleeping on the streets? clowns running this country.
lol okay tradie, relax
not sure those people are the ones they're voting for though
ok but can we just appreciate the name 'Nakamal Agreement'? sounds like a cocktail you'd drink at some backpacker bar 😂
Does anyone actually trust our government with these visa deals? Another backroom handshake with someone's mate.
honestly good on Vanuatu, they get stuffed around every cyclone season and still never complain. about time we gave them something back.

this. people complaining clearly haven't met anyone from Vanuatu. nicest people
yeah nah get stuffed, it's about diplomacy not charity
150 places out of how many? feels like a token gesture but whatever, better than nothing I guess
better than nothing is the motto for this whole government tbh
lol everyone in these comments acting like they know the details. the 'Nakamal' bit is traditional kava ceremony stuff. shows respect actually. but yeah nah, typical media spin
So we cut their places, then after a 'negotiation' they get them back? Sounds like we lost and they won. Good on ya Albo.
my friend from Port Vila just saw this on FB and is stoked. just saying, real people benefit from this, not just politicians
exactly! my mate was stressing about his visa and now he's got a chance. all these negative comments are just sad
more immigrants yay. exactly what we need. make it make sense
mate read the article first, this isn't even about immigrants settling here
betcha Albo took a photo smiling and that's it. these agreements always look good on paper then nothing changes. seen it a million times
