Malo le lauga o le Palemia o Samoa i le Lowy Institute i le aso Mati 22, 2023.

A speech that focused on the Samoan regional concerns regarding Climate Change, economic development and women issues, and, more improtantly, on AUKUS and BRICS Plus? the Rarotongan Treaty, means that it is a no to AUKUS for Samoa.

The Rarotongan Treaty has denied AUKUS in the Pacific Region according to the Samoan Prime Minister. This message opens the door for BRICS Plus for Samoa.

Malo lava Samoa.

The Chinese People's Liberation Army's Rocket Force and the Russian Strategic Rocket Forces response to the Australian Virginia Class Submarine Procurement. By TIm Tufuga

  The Chinese DF 31A is the Chinese mobile road launched Nuclear ICBM with either a single warhead of 1 megaton nuclear yield or 3 to 5 MIRVs that can reach all major cities in Australia, including, Darwin, Cairns, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth, being launched from mainland China. There is no need for the Chinese to have Six of their Type 094 Jin Class Ballistic nuclear SSBN armed with up to 12x JL 2 nuclear missiles, each armed with either a single 1 megaton nuclear warhead or up to 3 MIRVs with 150kiloton yield each, launching within proximity from the Coral Sea, Arafura Sea, Timor Sea, the Tasman Sea, Pacific Ocean or Indian Ocean at Australian Cities. (Wikipedia) The DF 31A ICBM can be launched from mainland China and can more than cover all of Australia in their range it seems almost pointless even considering a Submarine deterrence or even an Australian military National Security policy to deter a potential Chinese nuclear annhilation of Australia. When Australia pro...

The Australian guard of honour welcomed the Samoan Prime Minister to Australia in a formal visit to Australia. At the back of the official state visit is the issue of  the AUKUS Treaty whilst the world is on the verge of an inflection point in history. Samoa like over a century ago was at the centre of global conflict with the German Samoan Colony of Samoa being the very first ANZAC military operation on August 29th, 1914, when 1500 New Zealand Troops landed on Apia Beach, Upolu Island, Samoa.  German Samoa was occupied by the First New Zealand Expeditionary Force.    In 2023, China and Russia have partnered up in a military alliance that impacts directly on Pacific Island Geopolitical affairs with the Solomon Islands accepting more than Chinese Aid and humanitarian and domestic infrastructural development, but, to also welcome the likely visitations of Chinese Military vessels in the near future.    Meanwhile, the Sino-Samoan relationship has alway...

  Lets put things into perspective. (Arab World For Research and Development) Overwhelmingly, the Islamic World, or the Umma, some 59% supported the actions of the Hamas, on October 7th, 2023, according to the Arab World for Research and Development. Only 13% opposed the Terrorism acts by the Palestinain Hamas Organisation. (Telegraph) Israel is in the Middle of a Islamic World that reviles them and promise to drive the Israelis from the "Jordan River to the Sea". From the "River to the Sea" mantra and slogan has been reverberating throughout the entire Islamic World. Palestinians are Arabs living within Israel within the Gaza Strip and the West Bank and have shared the former Palestine which was created in 1917 by an Englishman's declaration, Arthur Balfour, declared the State of Palestine in 1917, as a consequence of the defeat of the Ottoman Empire during the Great War. Palestine under the Balfour Declaration was created not as a homeland for Arabs but it wa...
