[French Polynesia] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. Prison guards at Nuutania prison in French Polynesia conducted a peaceful protest and picket line in Faaa on March 29, 2025, demanding additional staffing. The demonstration appears limited in scope to labor grievances within the correctional system.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. French Polynesia's remote Pacific location and the localized nature of prison staff labor action suggest minimal immediate supply chain implications.

Watch points

• Monitor for expansion of labor unrest beyond correctional facilities to other public services or port operations
• Track duration of the strike and potential for broader public sector solidarity actions
