Welcome to Pacific Update, 1 NEWS' weekly round-up for the region.
This week, Barbara Dreaver looks at a bizarre statue of a Fijian postal worker drawing social media scorn and Pasifika teen Josh Nanai, who lives in South Auckland, topping the US music charts.
She also features foreign workers entering Papua New Guinea being fitted with GPS tracking ankle bracelets to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
And, as always, there are the best videos from social media.
