While officially opening the 48th Forum Leaders Meeting in Apia on the theme, “The Blue Pacific, Our Seas of Islands, Our Security through Sustainable Development, management and conservation” Tuilaepa said COP23 will require the region’s collective voice.
“The year ahead, provides regional and international engagements where we will be required to advocate our collective positions on our agreed priorities and articulate such through a collective voice such as the UN General Assembly and the 23rd Conference of Parties (COP23) of the UNFCCC.
