  • Commercial Enterprise and the Trader's Dilemma on Wallis
    Between Gifts and Commodities: Commercial Enterprise and the Trader’s Dilemma on Wallis (‘Uvea) Paul van der Grijp Toa abandoned all forms of gardening, obtained a loan, and built a big shed to house six thousand infant chickens flown in from New Zealand. The chickens grew large and lovely, and Toa’s fame spread. Everyone knew he had six thousand chickens and everyone wanted to taste them. A well-bred tikong gives generously to his relatives and neighbours, especially one with thousands of earthly goods. But . Toa aimed to become a Modern Busi- nessman, forgetting that in Tiko if you give less you will lose more and if you give nothing you will lose all. epeli hau‘ofa, the tower of babel Recently, the model of the trader’s dilemma was developed as an ana- lytical perspective and applied to Southeast Asia. The present paper seeks to apply this model in Western Polynesia, where many Islanders, after earning wages in Australia, New Zealand, the United States, or New Cale- donia, return to open a small shop in their home village. Usually, after one or two years of generous sharing, such enterprises have to close down. I analyze this phenomenon through case studies of successful indigenous entrepreneurs on Wallis (‘Uvea), with special attention to strategies they have used to cope with this dilemma. The Paradigm of the Trader’s Dilemma The trader’s dilemma is the quandary between the moral obligation to share wealth with kinfolk and neighbors and the necessity to make a profit and accumulate capital.

  • Wallis and Futuna HEALTH SITUATION Wallis and Futuna Is Located in the South Pacific Ocean
    Wallis and Futuna HEALTH SITUATION Wallis and Futuna is located in the South Pacific Ocean. The archipelago comprises two groups of volcanic islands: Wallis (Uvea) and Futuna. The estimated population was 12 200 in 2015, with about 70% of the population living in Wallis and 30% in Futuna. Improved care and rising living standards in Wallis and Futuna have helped to control many infectious diseases, resulting in increased life expectancy and a steady decline in infant mortality. But lifestyle changes (unhealthy diet, tobacco and alcohol consumption, physical inactivity) have led to a rise in metabolic pathologies and other NCDs. NCDs and chronic diseases are major public health concerns. Cardiovascular diseases and their complications are the leading causes of death in the country, while chronic renal insufficiency is increasing. Rheumatic fever is also common, with a cohort of 300–400 cases treated regularly. Cutaneous infections, mainly erysipelas, account for http:// www.who.int/countries/en/ 50% of visits and hospitalizations. The prevalence of leptospirosis is estimated to be 840 cases per 100 000 inhabitants per year in Futuna; WHO region Western Pacific however, severe forms are rare, with a case fatality rate of 0.5%.

These aempts to move towards a single market include the Pacific Agreement on Closer Economic Relaons (PACER, 2001), the Pacific Island Countries Trade Agreement (PICTA, 2002), and the most recent aempts at rafying PACER Plus (2017).

    The World Factbook Australia-Oceania :: Wallis and Futuna (overseas collectivity of France) Introduction :: Wallis and Futuna Background: The Futuna island group was discovered by the Dutch in 1616 and Wallis by the British in 1767, but it was the French who declared a protectorate over the islands in 1842, and took official control of them between 1886 and 1888. Notably, Wallis and Futuna was the only French colony to side with the Vichy regime during World War II, a phase that ended in May of 1942 with the arrival of 2,000 American troops. In 1959, the inhabitants of the islands voted to become a French overseas territory and officially assumed this status in July 1961.
