Last update: 4 hours ago

Moana Pasifika Rescue: New Zealand Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters says officials have been told to start talks with New Zealand Rugby and other stakeholders to secure Moana Pasifika’s Super Rugby future after the franchise was put into liquidation and owners signalled they can’t keep funding. Drug Crime & Youth Warning: Samoa PM Laaulialemalietoa Leuatea Schmidt says young people are being “used” by international drug rings after Samoans charged in a Vietnam killing, warning police graduates the case has damaged the country’s “good name.” Independence Day Governance: Samoa marked 64 years of independence with a major march and speeches from the Head of State, while Australia formally opened the new Samoan Parliamentary Precinct funded by AUD 34.1m. Fuel Pressure: Samoa’s fuel prices continue rising, with diesel supply issues highlighted regionally as Penrhyn Island in the Cook Islands runs low and borrows diesel. Regional Appointments: Oceania Customs Organisation appoints Laisiana Tugaga as Head of Secretariat, with Samoa’s aviation safety leadership also changing hands at PASO. Fisheries on the Frontline: A Salesatele-born fisheries officer is featured in Operation Tui Moana 2026, spotlighting Samoa’s role in Pacific-wide surveillance to protect fisheries.
