Steps to reproduce this issue:
When trying to add roads to the Islands of Niuatoputapu and Tafahi I get an error message saying they are too far from Tonga to have the country name added. The area in Waze that encompasses the Islands of Tonga needs to be extended to the NE to include these 2.

Hello @Ian,
Thank you for your report. I have filed an internal ticket to look into this issue. I will let you know once we have some feedback from the team.
All the best,
Olesya
It has now been a month since I posted this error. Has anything happened yet?
Hello @Ian,
I’m sorry for the wait. The issue is still being looked into, I’ve asked the team for an update and will share it with you as soon as it arrives.
Kind regards,
Olesya
Just a nudge in this. 3 months and still no action. It can not be difficult to make this small adjustment to the country border.
Hello @Ian,
Thank you for your patience!
According to the team’s estimation, this will counterintuitively require quite some effort. I will check whether it can be prioritized and provide you with an update as I hear back from the team.
Best regards,
Olesya
Further to the above issue, I have now found a similar issue in the Fijian Islands. The Island of Matuku to the south of the group of Islands, is not within the country border, again giving the error message -
While I now understand this is not the simple issue I assumed it to be, it still needs to be addressed to enable the correct mapping of these Island nations.
