Vanuatu 82 RSE workers

82 Ni-Vanuatu RSE workers prepare to leave for New Zealand

Tommy George from Emau is one of the workers.

He said this will be his seventh time working in NZ since the programme began.

George said he thinks resuming the RSE programme is a blessing as it will financially help many Ni-Vanuatu like him during these difficult times.

“It’s difficult to secure a job here with Covid-19 restrictions, but I am pleased that NZ and Vanuatu government have resumed the programme so we can return and help our families financially” said George in a NZ High Commission.
