Government of Niue

Niue consists of a single uplifted coral atoll with a unique rugged coastline. It is situated in the Southwest Pacific Ocean within the Polynesian cultural zone. The population of Niue was 2.088 at the 1977 population census, and is a declining population due to outward migration. Niue lies on the edge of the southern tropical cyclone belt, and has two distinct seasons, a hot wet season from November to March and a cool dry season from April to November. The economy is largely dependent on overseas aid. with no realistic prospect of economic self-reliance. However, there is a modest export production mainly comprising of taro and coconuts to New Zealand. Agriculture, fisheries and forestry are at subsistence levels with current government policy focusing on tourisim and private sector development. The predominant energy source is electricity and is provided by diesel powered generators. Although alternative energy sources have been investigated they are all currently under-utilised mainly due to the initial capital expense involved. Trade and tourism to Niue is hampered by transport. Currently there is a weekly flight to Auckland via Tonga serviced by Royal Tongan Airlines. There is a small concrete wharf at Alofi. the capital of Niue. however the channel is too small to be navigated by the larger ships. The larger container ship's cargo is transferred by 'lighters' on a monthly basis. Internal transport is mainly comprised of privately owned ships.
