A Tuvalu activist and artist from Tuvalu now living ovwerseas tells this blog:
"From what I'm aware, a lot of homeland Tuvaluans DO believe that God will take care of their needs. However, in my opinion, I believe action still needs to be taken to get the word out. Life is a balancing act - there needs to be faith but also action. I take the middle-path approach and say that, although faith is good, action is still needed. Again, in my opinion, God helps those who help themselves."

Funafuti was named ''Ellice's Island'' and named because of the name
of Edward Ellice, a British politician and merchant, by Captain Arent
de Peyster in the early 1800s who sighted the islands in 1819 sailing
on the ship RebeccaMr. Ellice in Britain owned the cargo of the ship.
The name Ellice was applied to all nine islands, of what is now
Tuvalu, after the map work of English hydrographer Alexander George
Findlay (1812–1876).
