Mr Bainimaram­a said at the CAPP meeting the leaders explored various opportunit­ies and challenges in relation to the actions they needed to take and the investment­s they needed to make in order to reach net-zero emissions as soon as possible, to protect our oceans and strengthen the resilience of Pacific countries.

After the closing ceremony all the participan­ts witnessed the military retreat performed by the Republic of Fiji Military Forces at the Albert Park, Suva where the flags of all the participat­ing countries were lowered.
