There are two beautiful yet remote islands in the South Pacific. The Islanders born on one island always tell the truth, and the Islanders from the other island always lie.
You are on one of the islands and meet three Islanders.

You ask the second Islander the same question, and he also indicates that the other two Islanders are from the same island.
