It cant be much of a paradise i dont see any white people!

[macknificent100]

@mikemanopopop You fail to realize that your retarded comment is proof of your lack of mental intelect.

[NesianWahine]

@mikemanopopop bahahaha...racist much?? thats probably WHY it is a paradise ...pretty much still untouched by "fisi" .... now why u wanna come on here and spoil it with your narrow minded comments?? a finak

[puahelava]

@mikemanopopop.........hahahah­ahahahahahahaha funny that you say that, we really don't need white people to make it a paradise....lol....but trust me there are quite a few of our Caucasian brothers and sisters that visit the island from time to time

[plopkiuj4]

@puahelava well i believe that thats the whole reason why it is paradise, because its full of untouched beuty! beutiful island.

[looco08]

@mikemanopopop I can just imagine what would happen to this island with a whole bunch of white people. lool. Ever read up on our history ?

I spent six weeks in Rotuma in 1985. Have very fond memories of the island and people. The local wine is lethal by the way. Thanks for the slide show!!

Greet from ur mate in West Papua.

[neiltheasby]

Thank you for reminding me of a place that is so special in my heart. I spent a year on Rotuma 1972-1973. Those faraway memories will go with me to the grave.

[martrex]

I have seen Rotumans crying for this place. Sailed on a ship with Rotuma crew members around the island on two different occassions, once at night, another time in daylight. We were not cleared to land. The night time trip, crew members lit up every conceivable light that we had on the ship while we circumnavigated the island.

[martrex]

Flashlights and floodlights and cabin lights all flicking on and off. The ships whistle continually blowing. On shore, family and friends were flashing car and motorbike lights. Bonfires were lit on beaches all the way around the island. Oh what a sight it was to see.

[martrex]

When we visited again another time in daylight I thought this would not be so exciting as the night time visit. I was proved wrong. Every mirror on the ship was taken out and used for flashing shoreside. Similarly every mirror I'm sure on the island was pulled out and used to flash back the sunlight to us

[martrex]

I've not been on Rotuma. Thank you for this video so that I might see what my fellow crew members were missing.

[Fidgi1]

Just beautiful. You are indeed lucky to have such a beautiful homeland. Vinaka vakalevu :-) Fidgi (NZ)

[johnzy1]

foieksia fate....makes me proud to say i am Rotuman....

Rotuma all the way.....

[KOLISI]

SIMPLY THE BEST......

[ricadomario]

vinaka

[mawhala]

Very beautiful singing and pictures, Rotumans like many other small island nations are not as mainstream or well known as say hamoa, toga, fisi etc. It should be this way to protect that exclusiveness about our idylic homes from the bad effects westernisation, manaia!

[kantoklui]

i found out recently that my pop was from rotuma... ever since i've been so fascinated, i really wanna learn more about my culture.

[dumdee]

Faiaksea Proud TO BE ROTUMAN(;

[sauporporo]

The background music is divine and the images are beautiful. I live in Sydney but Rotuma is always in my heart. A wonderful video

[ro2ma]

[1ROTUMA]

Hi!!!!Them photos were absolutely LOVELY!!! It's comforting to see it especially when we are far away from home. Iam ROTUMAN but I have forgotten much of the language...and I haven't been to Rotuma but am palnning to make it happen now that I've seen how beautiful it is....Thanks for that!-HARIETA STEPHEN PALUPE
