While the Governor of Guam has defended the use of nuclear weapons and long-range missiles in the territory, affected landowners are expressing concerns. 

Tom Ada, a military veteran, says he and other landowners are worried about the impact the proposed missile testing can have on their livelihoods. 

Mr. Ada told RNZ Pacific's Eleisha Foon about their concerns.
