That's the message speakers at the @AAPSPacific conference want people across Oceania to embrace.

On my first day as Foreign Minister, I want to share some thoughts with our Pacific family.
Our region faces unprecedented challenges, but we will face them together.
We will achieve our shared aspirations together.
And we will listen because we care what the Pacific has to say.

The #COVID outbreak is disrupting supply chains across 🇸🇧. 🇦🇺 is providing Solomon Airlines with $AU1mn to deliver food, COVID vaccines & other goods to the provinces. Here’s a flight getting the job done in Kirakira, capital of Makira-Ulawa Province. 🇸🇧🤝🇦🇺.

Today marks a day of mourning for First Nations People. It is the start of so much hurt for Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander People. I want to acknowledge the harm, the killings, & the dispossession that was caused by colonisation. #26January2022

Not my place to determine guilt or innocence of Christian Porter, we should have coroners, police & independent inquiries for that. But I am remembering being in Parliament when Porter argued with no evidence that innocent men from Manus were rapists to justify repealing Medevac.

Robert Fisk has died. I pay warmest tribute to one of the last great reporters. The weasel word 'controversial' appears in even his own paper, The Independent, whose pages he honoured. He went against the grain and told the truth, spectacularly. Journalism has lost the bravest.
