[31] The Teo government, in a statement published by Simon Kofe on 28 February 2024, gave support for the “broad principles and objectives” of the Falepili Union, while noting “the absence of transparency and consultations in socializing and informing the public in Tuvalu of such an important and groundbreaking initiative”;[32] and indicated that Tuvalu will seek changes to make it "workable".
