Last update: 3 hours ago

Women in the Spotlight: Samoa’s MFA&T CEO Peseta Noumea Simi used International Women’s Day to push a simple message: women are already driving change in both public and private life, and the next step is being recognised for what they can do. Homelessness Pressure (Fairfield): Fairfield city leaders are set to set priorities for the next two years on homelessness, but budget strain and shelter limits are squeezing options as housing insecurity rises. Independence Build-Up (Sport): Va’a trials for the Independence Regatta drew serious village interest, with the main event running 29 May–2 June. Legal & Political Fallout (Samoa): Samoa’s opposition has appealed the PM’s acquittal in a high-profile conspiracy case, keeping the courtroom fight front and centre. Rugby Union Tension: A government-backed push to “remove politics” from the Rugby Union is colliding with internal faction conflict. Crime & Security (Pacific): Police leaders in Fiji are coordinating against escalating illicit drug trafficking, with AFP warning organised networks are shifting supply chains.
