A crowd has gathered outside French Polynesia's Assembly in protest at the French territory's latest motion of no-confidence. In the next few hours the Assembly members will vote on whether to oust the current President, Oscar Temaru, who has been in power for just nine months. It is the latest upset for the government which has changed four times since last year's general elections.

A group of locals, calling themselves the No Tou Fenua is rallying outside the Assembly building.

Presenter: Helene Hofman
Speaker: Eric Loeve, President of Fenua Animalia and member of the No Tou Fenua
