The panel was made up of the Kiribati President Anote Tong, Prime Minister of Tonga Samiuela Akilisi Pohiva, Tuvalu PM Enele Sopoaga and President of Federated States of Marshall Islands Christopher Loeak.
Pohiva asked why should they migrate.
He put forward three questions:
– Where will they move?
– How are they going to move?
– Who will move them?
President Tong said moving was the last resort.
