AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Tourism & Economy: Prime Minister Mark Brown says the Cook Islands has avoided a feared 5% GDP contraction thanks to record visitor numbers, with 2025 arrivals peaking at 187,018 (up 10% on 2024) despite global oil-price shocks. Border Rules: The government says future tourists aged 12+ must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19, with limited exemptions on medical certificates, and quarantine-free travel only when there’s confidence no community transmission is present. Environment & Community: Te Ipukarea Society marks 30 years of environmental stewardship, taking students to the Rarotonga landfill and the Takitumu Conservation Area to spotlight waste sorting and biodiversity. Health Alert for Travellers: Hawai‘i reports a travel-related dengue case on Oʻahu involving a visitor; officials say local transmission risk is low but urge travellers to prevent mosquito breeding by removing standing water. Airport Compliance: Police warn vaping breaches at Rarotonga International Airport continue, with up to three incidents a month and potential for tougher enforcement. Sports Spotlight: Cook Islands winger Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad shines for the Warriors with a four-try haul, though an injury to forward Jackson Ford adds concern.
