they don't show it in the video, but the speech given by one of Fiji's delegates was quite powerful and emotionally charged

Im From Puerto Rico, but I'm very passionate about Hawai and its people and traditions .
I am so happy that traditions are much alive.We have our roots in Hawaiian soil. Many Puertorican left our island to get a better life in Hawaii .
124 years ago to Maui.
May no other country ever take away what you decide to preserve.
Que VIVA HAWAI!!

Yes but these arent just hawaiians here. These are all different islands gathered in hawaii. Hawaii hosts the festpac this year.
Hawaii hosted fest pac this year but these are all the people of the Pacific Ocean “Ohana” 💯🤙🏽
How incredible! Culture is truly alive and well. The ocean does not divide us, it's very waters connects us all together. E aroha nui atu ana.

Favorite was the Cook Islands. But too bad you didn't show the Marshall Islands. It was very emotional.
Samoa🎉🎉
Cool 💚 Would've been cool to capture Taiwan as it was their First time attending FestPac
It wasn't their first time attending, but it's the first time they've sent so many people, approximately 300 indigenous people were sent to fest pac
The original pacifica... we can trace our roots to Asia

‘Ia ora na, it’s not Pōrīnetia Farāni
it’s Mā’ohi Nui or Te Ao Mā’ohi because Pōrīnetia Farāni is just the translation of a colonial name
Was there a Taiwan group too? They were beautiful too. It was lovely to see all our friends and family from the Pacific. It made me cry happy tears.

RAPA NUI 🔥🔥🔥 🗿🇨🇱
Mauri ora whanau
AOTEAROA❤
Aunty Sia always the best MC😘
why didnt you include australia after the cook islanders?
Rapa Nui ❤
Why yall didn't show Marshall Islands performance??
How come Kiribati is the only Micronesian country y’all showed? Is it because they also reside in New Zealand?
The Kuki Airani put their Maohi cousins to shame with their explosive opening number🔥🔥🔥 Meitaki Mataa‼️ The drumming, fastest and swings🤌🏾 As much as I love Ori Tahiti as a former dancer, I love Kuki drumming, and Ura is harder technique wise than Hura. Well done🙏🏾
Your words are like the Steel blade and the Canon of our Colonists that have their ideology and law that keep my people down and imprisoned. SHAME ! My people committed no crime.
Why no show for PNG?
😎✌️🇹🇴🌺
Beautiful👍🏾but where are the other melanesian delegation ? Vanuatu ? Solomon Islands and Papua ?
In fijis speech that they gave, they sent their regards but will not make it most likely due to their fights for freedoms
🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🫶🏽
VIVA GUAM USA!!!!.
Mauri ora ❤❤❤❤

Bula and Aloha

I've never even heard of some of these cultures in the island Pacific. Wow
Trust they didn't even show vast majority of the performances, if anything this is so little because I remember being in there for like 8 hours.
