Ambitious dream short of credible

Thursday 7 September 2017 | Published in Letters to the Editor

The issue involving Merchants of Paradise and its plan to develop certain islands within the Cook Islands has resurfaced and once again, the public are being subjected to a lot of speculative statements made by Tim Tepaki and clearly, answers from the appropriate sources are required to alleviate speculation, suspicion and innuendo.

Fishing fine a drop in ocean

Monday 4 September 2017 | Published in Letters to the Editor

We see that Vanuatu just fined a Chinese fishing vessel three million dollars for violations in Vanuatu waters. Makes the Cook Islands look pretty silly with the recent $140,000 fine approved with PM and Marine Resources minister, Henry Puna, “keeping an eye on negotiations”.
