Economy Since 1962, when France positioned military staff in the district, French Polynesia has transformed from a subsistence horticultural economy to one in which a high extent of the work compel is either utilized by the military or backings the vacationer business. With the stop of French atomic testing in 1996, the military commitment to the economy fell

pointedly. Subsequent to developing at a normal yearly rate of 4.2% from 1997-2007, the monetary and budgetary emergency in 2008 checked French Polynesia's entrance into subsidence. French Polynesia starts to pay taxes and other revenue from 39.4% of good domestic product (GDP) in 2012.

Major issues in Human Rights and Environment Among the major issues regardless human rights in French Polynesia is the people still battles for independency. This happen in a far flung corner of the South Pacific where a secessionist development is mixing with its heroes getting ready for a noteworthy fight approaching a large portion of a world away. What's more, if Oscar Manutahi Temaru gets his direction French Polynesia might one be able to day turn into the world's most up to date nation. Temaru has battled a 35-year campaign for freedom and indigenous

control of his nation in a calm, peaceful however to find out the way that has been generally disregarded by whatever is left of the world. Be that as it may, the world is beginning to pay heed. Temaru is taking his battle to New York and staking his nation's claim in the United Nations General Assembly where he is rustling up help from the world pioneers for acknowledgment of French Polynesia's entitlement to self-government. France named French Polynesia as an “overseas country inside the Republic”, supplying it with some self-sufficiency including expert over wellbeing, town arranging and the earth, while Paris keeps on controlling its equity, instruction, security, open request, money, guard and outside arrangement. An unassuming Temaru has been mindful so as not to position himself and his battle against the French and has been strong of French President Francois Hollande, calling him a "companion" and a "democrat in the most ideal way." Hollande is viewed as the lesser of two challenges. Prior this year, at that point President Nicolas Sarkozy incensed the Polynesian pioneer with five terms as president added to his repertoire by telling columnists that Temaru's request for sway was "no earnest issue." Be that as it may, for Temaru the quick need is getting French Polynesia back on the UN List of Non Self Governing Territories, which for islanders is viably telling the world that politically, places like Tahiti are successfully a leftover of an out of date neo-royal domain. For the major issues regarding environment in French Polynesia is an extreme weather events. Extreme weather events is a noteworthy worldwide issue. Over the coming decades, the international scientific community predicts in increases of yearly temperatures, changing precipitation designs, rising ocean levels, sea fermentation, and escalation of tropical violent winds. Because of its land attributes and fundamental financial exercises, French Polynesia is especially powerless against these reasonable

effects. With its South Pacific neighbors (mostly small island developing states), French Polynesia is a standout amongst the most touchy nations on the planet to the expanding grouping of ozone harming substances. In spite of French Polynesia's high powerlessness, there is constrained information on the nearby effects of environmental change, and what learning exists is extremely divided. Adjusting to extreme weather events will be unavoidable for all South Pacific countries, but then there is no particular procedure set up to direct French Polynesia through this testing period. While little islands are not real supporters of ozone harming substance outflows in outright terms, moderation arrangements likewise serve to diminish their reliance on costly foreign made carbon energizes and are subsequently a crucial segment of maintainable advancement. Besides, with its solid associations with European and American science, French Polynesia is all around put as an examination research facility for sustainable power sources, especially those in light of advances in marine engineering.
