During the visit, there were also discussions on the possibility of UNDP establishing a sub-regional office in the northern pacific, preferably here in the FSM, if the government is willing to meet its financial and logistical obligations under a proposed MOU.

An export development project is also under consideration now, in collaboration with the UNDP, University of Hawaii (UH), Department of Interior (DOI), the FSM National and the four State Governments. Mr. Patrick Tuimaleali’ifano, UNDP Program Officer for FSM, accompanied Deputy Resident Representative Hans de Graaff during the visit.
