I believe “SHAMPOO” and “CONDITIONER” should be the two biggest words on the bottle. Not size 8 font on a matching background like I’m supposed to solve a fcking puzzle in the shower.

The 55th Pacific Islands Forum Leaders Meeting has come to a close, and as members and partners journey home from beautiful Palau, we want to pause and recognise a vital partner whose contribution can sometimes go unnoticed: our media colleagues. From early mornings to late nights, across press conferences, side events and cultural moments, the media worked tirelessly to bring the stories of the Blue Pacific to audiences at home and around the world. Mesulang! #55PIFLM #Belau #OneBluePacific
