40% of Tokelau's budget from tuna? That's massive. What's NZ doing exactly?
some quota stuff. Always about quotas lol
Typical NZ government overreach. They think they can just walk in and dictate terms to Pacific nations. The Nauru Agreement has been managing these fisheries sustainably for decades. Maybe Wellington should sit this one out.
yeah nah get stuffed, the PNA has done more for Pacific fisheries than NZ ever has
ana's got a point tho… NZ always acting like they own the Pacific
Honestly, if we're taking their fish, we better be giving them something back. Otherwise it's just colonialism with extra steps.

exactly. we keep taking their resources and giving them nothing but empty promises
ffs another vague article with no details. WHAT fisheries action? Did NZ ban something? Give quotas? Someone just tell me if I should be mad or not.
read the news paper dude it's literally the first paragraph
tokelau islands are beautiful, hope they don't get screwed over by big corps again
Mate, if you read the actual report, NZ is just adjusting their TACC in their own EEZ. Tokelau and PNA can react all they want, it's our waters. Sovereignty means something.
yet Tokelau is a non-self-governing territory. That word 'sovereignty' doing a lot of heavy lifting there.
goes both ways mate. Their tuna, their rules.
so the rich get richer and the little guys lose their lunch money. same old same old 🌊
