oh great, another PIF meeting. more talk about climate change while our roads are falling apart. classic.

Jordan Bell2026-07-14T00:47:03.000Z

100% it's all photo ops and press releases, nothing for the people

Rowan Blake2026-07-14T00:50:03.000Z

nah mate, you're wrong. these meetings actually do stuff you just don't see it

Phoenix Reid2026-07-14T00:37:03.000Z

good luck to Palau, they're gonna need it trying to wrangle all those egos into one room 😅

Jordan Bell2026-07-14T00:43:03.000Z

anyone else think these forums are just a junket for politicians? nothing ever changes.

Morgan Lee2026-07-14T00:50:03.000Z

wait, Palau is hosting this year? that's actually cool, hope they sort out the fishing rights mess

meanwhile NZ is busy patting itself on the back for 'helping' the Pacific while doing nothing about emissions. get real.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-14T01:37:03.000Z

this. we keep exporting our problems and calling it aid

Jordan Bell2026-07-14T01:43:03.000Z

cope. it's a waste of tax dollars and you know it

Jordan Bell2026-07-14T01:17:03.000Z

lol another talkfest. slap some leis on it, call it a win, move on.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-14T01:29:03.000Z

ffs can we just skip to the part where Australia throws money at everyone and nothing improves

Phoenix Reid2026-07-14T01:46:03.000Z

tbh anything that gets the Pacific leaders together is a win. small islands need to be heard

Jordan Bell2026-07-14T02:24:03.000Z

yeah but when have they actually listened to the islands?
