The wealth, of course, are Australian taxpayer dollars, which should not be squandered, but carefully managed to advance Australia’s interests.
Update:
Mr Wong disgraced Australia yet again. The vicious dyke has now recognised a terrorist State. Add this to previous disasters of committing us financially to every UN climate change grifter on the planet. Wong is a menace to our national security.
The “Government” of Palestine is Hamas.
Australia has declared Hamas a terror organisation, as have most Western countries, globally. And Mr Albanese and Mr Wong want to reward these murderous, barbaric, killers, this death cult, with Statehood.
Perverse.

What a scam : PENNY GIVES $38 MILLION TO TUVALU FOR “CLIMATE CHANGE”
Why is Penny ignoring the peer-reviewed science ? Tuvalu is growing in size – an increase of 73 hectares over the past 4 decades. But the superstitious and brainwashed climate cult think it’s sinking. And while Australian families being forced to live in tents under bridges, Penny and the Liberal Senator Birmingham are in Tuvalu handing out $38 million of taxpayers money for “climate change”
The Pacific nation of Tuvalu—long seen as a prime candidate to disappear as climate change forces up sea levels—is actually growing in size, new research shows. A University of Auckland study examined changes in the geography of Tuvalu’s nine atolls and 101 reef islands between 1971 and 2014, using aerial photographs and satellite imagery.
It found eight of the atolls and almost three-quarters of the islands grew during the study period, lifting Tuvalu’s total land area by 2.9 percent Co-author Paul Kench said the research, published Friday in the journal Nature Communications, challenged the assumption that low-lying island nations would be swamped as the sea rose. “We tend to think of Pacific atolls as static landforms that will simply be inundated as sea levels rise, but there is growing evidence these islands are geologically dynamic and constantly changing. “The study findings may seem counter-intuitive, given that (the) sea level has been rising in the region over the past half century, but the dominant mode of change over that time on Tuvalu has been expansion, not erosion.”
It found factors such as wave patterns and sediment dumped by storms could offset the erosion caused by rising water levels. Rather than accepting their homes are doomed and looking to migrate to countries such as Australia and New Zealand, the researchers say they should start planning for a long-term future. “On the basis of this research we project a markedly different trajectory for Tuvalu’s islands over the next century than is commonly envisaged,” Kench said. abc.net.au/news/2018-12-1
