Rabi Islanders perform in Fiji @ Savusavu Open Day Festival 2015

A little bit of the Rabi islander's backstory (including an interview with Kaako Nabong) and then the entire 22-minute music and dance performance in Savusavu, Vanua Levu, Fiji on July 24, 2015.

The Banabans are known as the "Forgotten people of the Pacific" because they have suffered from one of the most horrific environmental disasters on the planet... their home has literally been destroyed by phosphate mining and the diaspora of these dispossessed people brought them to Rabi (pronounced Rambi) island, at the east coast of Vanua Levu, near Taveuni island. The history of the Banaban people is here: http://www.banaban.com/index.html
