This involvement with the security forces is awesome. Would love to see more of this happening back home.

What do you see as your biggest threat?

To my knowledge sir, there is no threat to Palau but the experience in security is low. It may not be a priority but I do see a reason for Security Forces to be taught and trained well. As to train a militia it is something that doesn't need to be addressed. I do understand that Camp Katuu is there as a pact in the COFA so I'm sure my island is well taken care of.

To me the biggest threat would be how the Government is running, and everybody knows that. It is fueled by nepotism and greed and it is every man for himself in the politics of Palau. With that in mind, favoritism on who's party you're on and who you're related to is looked at more than qualifications to be hired a position, and that also spreads to the private sector. No one understands transparency well enough and there is no integrity amongst others in the office.
