The Vanuatu Government has started implementing the Tamtam Travel Bubble.
Prime Minister Bob Loughman specified that the first stage of the Tamtam Travel Bubble will be the opening of Vanuatu’s border with New Caledonia on Friday 19 February, 2021.
It is necessary for the Government to begin implementing the Tamtam Travel Bubble now so Vanuatu’s economic recovery from the global COVID-19 pandemic can also begin, the Prime Minister said.
“Since February 2020 wen the global COVID-19 pandemic was declared, the Government has been managing the COVID-19 pandemic through the introduction of health protocols and border control measures that have been safeguarding our country and protecting our people”, he said.
