Last update: 6 hours ago

Moana Pasifika Crisis: Shareholders have voted to put the Super Rugby franchise into liquidation, with captain Miracle Fai’ilagi still hoping a rescue deal can be found; New Zealand Rugby says the tender for the licence continues, and Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters hints governments or a private consortium could step in, as debts include a NZ$2.7m Crown loan. Parliament Ethics Probe: Samoa’s Privileges and Ethics Committee has been set up to investigate allegations against Opposition leader Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi, deputy Fonotoe Lauofo Pierre Lauofo and party secretary Lealailepule Rimoni Aiafi, with a report due by October. Drug Raids Update: Police say 20 raids since late January have led to 55 charges and seizures including methamphetamine, marijuana plants, firearms and border-confiscated prescribed drugs, urging the public to report tips. Budget 2026/2027: Finance Minister Mulipola Anarosa outlines new support including a Child Wellbeing Benefit ($100 a month for eligible children from birth to 35 months plus a $200 baby bonus) and a pension rise for those 70+ from $300 to $500.
