China is making a lot of moves in the Pacific Islands. In recent weeks, the news outlets in the Pacific and the west have reported on Chinese missions to the Pacific Islands. Recently, a question was asked on Quora about this subject, and this is my reply.
Kaselehlie Maingko, We are pleased to share this awesome episode on Human Trafficking.  Ms. Lori Williams from the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) Department of Justice, was interviewed and shared information about Human Trafficking.  She spoke with PJ about the history, methods of human trafficking, and a recent workshop that was held in Chuuk, FSM to discuss human trafficking in the FSM.  Enjoy this very informative episode and thank you for listening.

It was memorial day in the USA today. I couldn't let the day go by without saying something about this day.   Memorial Day is a time to remember and be grateful.  Grateful to be alive, and grateful for knowing those who are no longer here with us.  So let's just do that, not just today, but every day.  #Gratitutde #MemorialDay

Hey podcast, an absolute honor and privilege was granted to the Micronesian Podcast to interview the ninth President of the Federated States of Micronesia, David W. Panuelo.  This is part one of a three part series. On this episode we talk about the Youth and our citizens abroad.  He gives the youth some advice, like believe in yourself, don't compare yourself with others and tells us that the most important aspect of our economy is our human resources.  Our future belongs to the youth and we hope that this message is passed onto all FSM citizens here and abroad to take part in the building of our nation, together.

Hey Podcast, the FSM President, David W. Panuelo has been leading our country for over 100 days now. How is he doing? From the perspective of information, I think he's doing great. Without timely and accurate information, we have no sense of what our President is doing. So far, so good. We hope to see more information and transparency from the Office of the President in the years to come.

Hey Podcast, we had some really sad news from our state of Yap this week. The acting Attorney General Rachelle Bergeron was killed by an unknown assailant. We offer our deepest condolences to her family. We also talk a look at "The Edge of Paradise" by P.F. Kluge again. Yes, it is my favorite book about the early days of our nation, and the period before that when we were all the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands.
