Niue’s Economy
Niue has a small economy with support from New Zealand. Low population and poor communication with the outside world have made the economy less developed. Many people are employed in public administration. Households usually do self-sufficient farming. Honey, vanilla, coconut and taro (root fruit) are produced for export. Other revenues include tourism, banking licenses, telephone network credits for private international telephone services and internet domain name “ .nu “. In 2003, Niue acquired the world's first fully wireless national internet system. Tourism is a growing sector, but the port of the capital is small, which prevents access to large tourist ships. Tourists are fleeing from Samoa. The cyclone Heta caused the disaster of the island's buildings in 2004. Infrastructure, food stores and coral reefs were damaged. The restructuring has become a big expense for the small country that has postponed many other development projects.
