Council of Chiefs on ULMWP Congress at the Shefa Education Conference Hall<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The United Liberation Movement of West Papua Interim Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs, Morris Kaloran, wishes to ask the Prime Minister Charlot Salwai and the Government, on behaif of Vanua Riki Council of Chiefs of Shefa Province, to abide by the Resolutions of the first ever ULMWP Congress in Jayapura, West Papua, from November 20-23.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-preview\">\n<p>The Congress which was attended by over 5,000 people from the seven Regions of West Papua, resolved that Benny Wenda be the Interim President of ULMWP and Edison Waromi the Interim Prime Minister.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>On the same note the Congress resolved that the election of the ULMWP Congress in Port Vila \u201cbe null and void\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tncms-region-ads-fixed-big-ad-top-asset\" class=\"tncms-region-ads\">\n<div

class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>Meanwhile, the Maraki Vanua Council of Chiefs of Shefa Province has met to ponder the sudden arrival of an unofficial group from West Papua this week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>On the same note, the VFWPA President Lae Sakita could not believe his ears about the unexpected arrival of the group from West Papua.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>Reliable sources said the group is expected to dispute the results of the first ever ULMWP Congress in Jayapura last month (November 20-23).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>According to the rumours, the group which is understood to be accompanied by some Indonesians, would argue their case to the Government to agree to recognise the former ULMWP Executive which was elected in Owen Hall at PMC, following the Melanesian Arts Festival last August.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tncms-region-article_instory_middle\" class=\"tncms-region hidden-print\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>Interim President Wenda said, &#8220;The majority of West Papuans who attended the ULMWP Congress in Jayapura, have rejected the results of the ULMWP Summit II Commique because it is considered unconstitutional, where the ULMWP Constitution clearly and explicitly states that dismissal, appointment and inauguration of executive. legislative and judicial leaders. can only be done through the Congress, and not through the Summit&#8221;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>In Port Vila, Sakita said for the uninvited group to try to dispute the resolution approved by over 5,000 West Papuans, reflects their internal issues which the Govrnment, VFWPA, the National Council of Chiefs, Vanuatu Christian Council and the people of all six Provinces in the country, should not tolerate or hear because it reflects a total lack of respect on their part for Vanuatu\u2019s unfailing support for their struggle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>akita reminded the group of the \u201cWest Papua child\u201d called ULMWP which was born in the \u2018nasara\u2019 of the Malvatumauri Council of Chiefs in 2014.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>\u201cAs such, I wish to advise any West Papua individuals who could be supported by Jakarta, not to try to use external politics to attempt to derail what the National Council of Chiefs has successfully set up for the freedom of the West Papua through ULMWP nine years ago\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>\u201cOur Government and people are still recovering from constant political instability in the last month which impacted a protest march by youths to Parliament to petition the Prime Minister to get his acts together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>\u201cWhatever West Papua internal differences between yourselves and Mr. Wenda\u2019s Executive, We wish to assure the ULMWP President that we stand united with the results of the ULMWP Congress in Jayapura\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscriber-only\">\n<p>The Mariki Vanua Riki Council of Chiefs has resolved to meet with the Executive Committee of VFWPA to discuss the way ahead for future engagement by the
