Online business suffers as farming crisis takes hold
The foot-and-mouth outbreak has brought the UK's farming industry to its knees. But in the New Economy, it's not only agriculture Web sites that have been hit. The outbreak has put the livelihood of farmers and some Internet entrepreneurs in serious jeopardy. Just as a slowing global economy and a downturn in the advertising market have already done, the foot-and-mouth epidemic is proving that the New Economy is just as vulnerable as the old to unforeseen crises. It is unlikely that any entrepreneur factored in a foot-and-mouth epidemic when assessing the prospects for a new business last year.

Country Reports on Human Rights Practices
Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor
February 23, 2001
Tuvalu, with a population of approximately 10,000 primarily Polynesian persons, occupies a land area of a little more than 10 square miles on 9 atolls in the central South Pacific. Independent since 1978, its Constitution provides for a Westminster-style parliamentary democracy. The Head of State is the British Queen, represented by the Governor General, who must be a Tuvaluan citizen. The judiciary is independent. A 32-member police constabulary, the only security force, is responsible to and effectively controlled by civilian authority. The primarily subsistence economy relies mainly on coconuts, taro, and fishing. With donor assistance, Tuvalu has developed a well-managed trust fund, which is supplemented by significant annual payments for use of its international telephone-dialing prefix. An agreement for use of the country's Internet address is expected to increase national revenues significantly. Remittances from Tuvaluans working abroad as well as the sale of postage stamps and of fishing licenses to foreign vessels provide additional foreign exchange. The country's isolation and meager natural resources limit the prospects for economic development. The Government generally respected the human rights of its citizens, and society is generally egalitarian; however, social behavior, as determined by custom and tradition, is considered as important as the law, is ensured by village elders, and leads to some discrimination. In the traditional culture of the islands, women occupy a subordinate role, with limits on their job opportunities.

With donor assistance, Tuvalu has developed a well-managed trust fund, which is supplemented by significant annual payments for use of its international telephone-dialing prefix. An agreement was completed in 1998 with a Canadian telecommunications company for use of the country's Internet address. However, anticipated revenues of up to $50 million have not materialized. Remittances from Tuvaluans working abroad as well as the sale of postage stamps and of fishing licenses to foreign vessels provide additional foreign exchange. The country's isolation and meager natural resources limit the prospects for economic development. Society is egalitarian, democratic, and respectful of human rights. However, social behavior, as determined by custom and tradition, is considered as important as the law and is ensured by village elders. There were no specific reports of human rights abuses. However, in the traditional culture of the islands, women occupy a subordinate role, with limits on their job opportunities. Recently there has been a substantial effort to accord women equality in employment and decisionmaking.

TUVALU
Statement by His Excellency Mr. Enele S Sopoaga
Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Tuvalu to the United Nations Chair of the Tuvalu Delegation at the General Debate of the Fifty-Sixth Session of the United Nations General Assembly Friday 16th November 2001 (Check Against Delivery) Mr. President I thank you for the honor of addressing the General Assembly. Speaking on behalf of the people and government of Tuvalu, I extend Tuvalu's greetings to the Fifty-Sixth Session, and our congratulations to you and Co-Chairs of the General Assembly, on your election. I also pledge Tuvalu's full support and cooperation during your term of office. As we come to the end of this General Debate, we are still overshadowed by the loss of many innocent lives and property from the barbarous terrorist attack on America. Since early this week, we are further saddened yet again by the losses from the plane mishap in our host state, NY and our host country, America. Tuvalu therefore joins others to renew to the people and Government of America our own strong condemnation of the terrorist attack, and to pledge our strongest solidarity behind the USA. Let me also convey Tuvalu's deepest sorrow and sympathy to the families of the victims of the plane crash, and offer our prayers to the people and government of America, and equally to the people and government of the Dominican Republic. We wholly share their bereavement and grief.

"Tuvaluans are blessed, as divine right or good fortune would have it. ....we are blessed with our customs and culture, tradition and history; we share intense family and island pride; we have the sea, and above all we have our land. Tuvaluans are closely knit through kinship, a small population and a single binding culture. What this mixture stirs up is a sensation that runs deep, a supreme sense of place. As we say in our language, 'Tuvalu mo te Atua - Tuvalu for God'."
- Prime Minister of Tuvalu, the Honourable Faimalaga Luka Funafuti, June 2001

1. INTRODUCTION
Tuvalu comprises nine islands (atolls) in the southwest Pacific between 5 and 11 south the and 176 and 180 west (Lambert, 1982). The nine islands are Funafuti, Vaitupu, Niutao, Nanumea, Nanumaga, Nukufetau, Nui, Nukulaelae and Niulakita (Douglas and Douglas, 1989) - see Figure 1. They have a total land area of approximately 26 sq. km and are all less than 5 m above sea level (see World Factbook ). The islands are scattered over about 1.3 million square kilometres of the Pacific Ocean forming a chain running in a northwest to southeast direction of some 579 km in length. The population is over 10,500 [10,991 according to the July 2001 estimate of the World Factbook]. The country has 1.3 million sq km of ocean. Tuvalu is an independent state. The islanders of Tuvalu are Polynesians and females outnumber men, due to migration of working males. It is only at Funafuti and Nukufetau that ships can enter the lagoons, elsewhere there is no anchorage at all except in the calmest weather. Although Tuvalu is to the north of the recognized hurricane belt, the islands have been struck on a number of occasions in modern times by severe cyclones (Maddison, 1989), with three cyclones in 1997 (World Factbook). Tuvalu has a mixed market subsistence economy. Although agriculture has been and will remain a major development activity in Tuvalu, Tuvalu is not self-sufficient in agricultural production,. However, development projects are focusing on meeting at least 50 percent of food requirements. Fishing and farming are inexorably linked with the everyday lives of the people and agriculture is important within the general economy mainly as the provider of subsistence for the majority of the population.
