FESTPAC 2024 Beauty and the Bear, Rapa Nui girl tosses up her new bear Honolulu, Hawaii, June 16

Sweet Bear gifted to young Rapa Nui girl on FestPAC's closing day is joyously played with at the Biggest Family Reunion Party! See her toss her bear upwards and carry it on her shoulders?

As a Maori living in Aotearoa it fills me with great pride and tears of joy seeing all Polynesians representing. It's just a pity whats happening in New Caledonia,

FestPAC was indeed an incredible Polynesian family reunion celebration! May God help the New Caledonia Kanak prisoners taken to France for trial.
