AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Moana Pasifika Rescue Talks: New Zealand Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters says he has instructed officials to begin talks with New Zealand Rugby and other stakeholders to secure the Super Rugby franchise’s future after liquidation steps, with the club ending its season on a 21-19 win over the Brumbies. Independence Day Diplomacy: Peters met Samoa PM La’aulialemalietoa Schmidt and Tonga PM Lord Fakafanua during Independence Day commemorations, while leaders from India and the UAE also sent greetings to Samoa’s Head of State. Youth, Drugs and “Good Name” Concerns: Samoa’s PM Laaulialemalietoa Schmidt says youth are being “used” by international drug rings after two alleged Apia hitmen confessed to a Vietnam killing, warning police graduates against corruption. Drug Raids Update: Samoa’s acting police commissioner says 20 drug raids were carried out in the first five months, with 55 charged. Fuel Pressure in the Region: Diesel and petrol prices are rising in Samoa, and the Cook Islands’ Penrhyn Island has rationed power and borrowed diesel after its supply ran out. Fisheries Careers Close to Home: A Salesatele-born fisheries officer is representing Samoa in Operation Tui Moana 2026, linking village life and ocean protection. Regional Media Focus: PNG hosts the Pacific Media Partnership Conference on building resilient Pacific journalism amid misinformation and digital disruption. Sports—Samoa in the Spotlight: Storm fullback Sua Faalogo eyes a Samoa return for the Rugby League World Cup after a breakout NRL run; Samoan sailor Vaimo’oi’a Ripley wins top female honours at the Oceania Championships in Tahiti.
