now a strategy has pledged $500000000.00 in new climate funds for its asian pacific neighbors. and that certainly be welcomed by some of those countries including fiji . the fiji and prime minister met with scott morrison in glasgow. and he said this is certainly a start. now, unfortunately, due to covert only for the specific nations were able to be represented by the leaders in glasgow. but i have so much to lose. that was a small group, but a large voice that scientists have said that the sea level rise in the pacific islands could be $2.00 to $3.00 times the global average. and some of those low lying coral at holes are simply won't survive and some of the islands will be uninhabitable by 2030. now we spoke to some villages in, i'm very watson and they discussed about what life is like, living with the extreme, whether they're experiencing on a daily basis. we just build and then it is destroyed and we build again. if the whole world can see what we are going through and find a solution to help us overcome these natural disasters. whenever a natural disaster comes, instead

the threat to them as well as to us and our indo-pacific allies. operating on an allied basis is the most important thing we can do. sometimes we form institutions. the quad is an institution that both parties can be proud of. republican and democratic presidents have supported the quad. now president biden is operationalizing it at the head of government level, which we haven't done before.countries c. we need to take this policy we are discussing this morning into the 2030s. the competition with china will be multi-decade. >> i want to address specifically the infitration into the university systems, their investment in medical journals. it concerns me. there is so much we don't know, for example, about the coronavirus. so much we don't know about covid. i really do -- i want to get your take on a real potential fault line when we start learning more. for example, the origin theory. i don't know whether it was lab leak or natural origin. there was a coverup and gave china a head start of burying evidence. you participated in an event. you were cr

i in the, in the process of helping the pacific islands now sadly, only for pacific arnold leaders were able to make it at to glasgow simply due to cova. but certainly they've got so much to lose. and they were very big voice and the likes of scientists to say the pacific islands, some of them will be uninhabitable by 2030. the likes of tuba lu and samoa. and most of these low lying call at holes will be gone her by 2030. now we spoke to out, is there a spoke to some villages and some people residing on the island of malik cooler in our velocity. and they talked about life living with climate change and the day to day battling the likes of the extreme weather and circumstances that are in thy face. in van iwatsu, just, we just build and then it is destroyed and we build again. if the whole world could see what we are going through and find a solution to help us overcome these natural disasters. whenever a natural disaster comes, instead of us just rebuilding and rebuilding, we need solutions to be found for us at a community over a level on a separate note. so the i picked countries rel
