WASHINGTON — The tiny Pacific nation of Palau — a former filming location for “Survivor” — has agreed to take up to 75 third-country deportees from the United States who don’t have a criminal record — in exchange for a $7.5 million grant to support the roughly 18,000-person island chain.
The $100,000 per-deportee fee, announced on Christmas Eve by Palau’s President Surangel Whipps Jr. and the US embassy in Koror, introduces one of the most favorable venues yet for deportees if their recalcitrant homelands — such as China, Cuba, Russia or Iran — won’t take them.
“Palau and the United States signed a Memorandum of Understanding allowing up to 75 third country nationals, who have never been charged with a crime, to live and work in Palau, helping address local labor shortages in needed occupations,” the country’s president said in a statement.
“In connection with this arrangement, the United States granted $7.5 million to help Palau meet related public service and infrastructure needs, while both countries continue close cooperation on immigration and security matters.”
The US embassy said, “The United States deeply appreciates Palau’s cooperation in enforcing U.S. immigration laws, which remains a top priority for the Trump Administration.”
In addition to the new $7.5 million grant, the Trump administration agreed to provide $6 million “to prevent collapse of [Palau’s] civil service pension plan system” and $2 million for “new law enforcement initiatives.”

Good luck finding 75 people to go there.
Bali Hai Is Calling
Nothing like a bunch of convicts to help you spend your money.
Meanwhile, nearby Tulalu is sinking and fols are fleeing to Australia.
Over a third of people on sinking Tuvalu seek Australia’s climate visas
Tuvalu, one of the countries at greatest risk from climate change, which experts say is boosting sea levels, has a population of 11,000 on its nine atolls scattered across the Pacific.
The home countries should take their own people back, even if we have to parachute them down.
Sounds like a deal...
Send deportees to the Andaman Islands.
It shouldn’t be overly difficult to disappear 75 primitives from an island in the middle of an ocean.
Advice to the natives of Palau; Keep those deportees as separate from your native population as you possibly can, especially keep them away from your women.
They have already shown no hesitancy to break the laws of the land.
Or St. Helena. It worked for Napoleon.
Sell out.
Look for Palau to be a third world hell hole in 25 years or less.
As the saying goes - “Import the third world....”
Send theme there broke. It will take awhile to earn air fare home. If they stay it may be good to mix up the gene pool.
French Polynesia-the Marqueses. The few people on those islands intermarry and cases of palsy are prevalent. I sometimes think that infants that escaped Planned Parenthood would be good for the place.
Black tip reef sharks.
Many Japanese and American sailors met their end to them during the war.

Oh he went fishing the other day , we haven’t seen him in over a month now?
$100k for each deportee? That’s crazy expensive and I don’t approve of this deal.
The saltwater crocks love the taste of human meat. #1 killer of people on the island chain.
