AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

New Caledonia bailout: France has agreed in principle to an emergency rescue package of up to AU$900m for New Caledonia to keep pensions and health services from collapsing, with most support expected as grants (still awaiting French parliament approval). Tourism hit after riots: Two years on from the 2024 unrest, tourism operator Gaetan Babout says his business fell by 50–70% and the wider economy is still reeling, with major gaps in services after an estimated 12,000 people left the territory. Local travel ideas (horseback + farm stays): Catriona Rowntree visited Pocquereux Station near La Foa for eco-tourism on a working farm, including BBQ lunch and guided hiking, mountain biking, or horseback riding. Visitor etiquette in Lifou: Carnival Cruise Line guests visiting Lifou, New Caledonia, have been told to avoid swimwear in public areas and keep dress modest outside beaches/pools. Pacific conservation spotlight: In Tonga’s Vava’u, rat-eradication work by VEPA is credited with the return of the Hengehenga bird’s song—an encouraging story for nature-focused travelers.
