Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama was impressed with the set up done by school students in Tuvalu as it portrays the real meaning of climate change.

Upon arriving in Funafuti, Tuvalu for the Pacific Islands Forum meeting, Bainimarama witnessed students and small kids portraying a set-up which shows the Tuvalu group of Islands sinking.

Bainimarama says it was a good set up and as expected climate change issues will be a major talking point at the meeting.

“Even the flight to Tuvalu was one of the exciting one I’ve come across and the set up by the school students was really good.  After more than a decade, I will be part of this 50th PIFS meeting.”

For the people of Tuvalu the PIFS meeting is a chance to show leaders the real impact of climate change.

The Tuvaluans are hoping that world leaders will take notice of issues they face every day.

Meanwhile, Bainimarama is expected to open the Sautalaga meeting tomorrow and discussions will be on climate change issues and further directions to be taken by small pacific island countries.
