  • In between Fiji and New Caledonia lies a hidden gem of the Pacific not known to many people: Futuna Island. 

Futuna lies in the easternmost part of Vanuatu in the Tafea province. It is a tightknit community with a population of around 600 people. The island is sometimes called west Futuna to distinguish it from Wallis and Futuna, and also can be known as Erronan by its island neighbour, Tanna.

Although it is part of the Melanesian country of Vanuatu it is considered by some to be a Polynesian outlier with the Futunese language having a strong connection to Samoan, Tuvaluan, and Maori.

Futuna is said to be the 'Gateway' to the gospel in Vanuatu, the first island where its inhabitants accepted the gospel of Jesus Christ.  

There are 5 main villages on Futuna Island: Iasoa, Ipao, Matangi, Ihsia, and Imounga. These are the smiles from children and people from Iasoa and Ipao.

  • People from Vanuatu are called Ni-Van, which is short for Ni-Vanuatu.

Ni-Vanuatu is a recent coinage. It combines the name of the country (Vanuatu, etymologically "land that stands [by itself]", i.e. ‘independent country’) with a particle ni, which encodes the genitive in indigenous languages such as North Efate similar to "of" in English. Etymologically, the particle descends from Proto-Oceanic, Proto-Malayo-Polynesian and Proto-Austronesian *ni. 

The word Ni-Vanuatu thus simply means "of Vanuatu".

  • Uninhabited and untouched by modern society, Mystery Island will make you believe it wouldn't be so bad to be a marooned sailor in an old storybook. You'll find no electricity, roads or telephones here. A comfortable 30-minute walk will take you on a self-guided tour of the entire island. Only accessible by cruise ship and the nearby inhabitants of Aneityum, you'll truly get to experience life on a deserted island. Cruise to Mystery Island and explore the white-sand shoreline and its warm waters — go for a snorkel and see an incredible underwater world untouched by human influence.

  • Charlot Salwai becomes Vanuatu's 3rd Prime Minister in a month!

Vanuatu's last prime minister Sato Kilman has been voted out through a motion-of-no-confidence in the country's parliament.

The motion was carried by a show of hands, with 27 votes, in the absence of the government bench which had vacated the floor in protest ahead of the motion being moved.

Charlot Salwai was then nominated as the sole candidate for prime minister and was duly-elected by secret ballot with 29 votes in the absence again of the MPs on the other side of the house.

Salwai was previously prime minister from February 2016 up until the general election in 2020. He visited Brussels and I had the chance to meet him. He seemed a very nice man.

Immediately after the vote Salwai took his oath and was installed as the new prime minister of Vanuatu.

In his acceptance speech Salwai apologised to the Vanuatu public for the ongoing "political crises" which have seen four prime ministers elected now in the the space of three years.

He also thanked police for keeping the peace and thanked citizens for respecting the law and each other.

Salwai, who is the leader of the Reunification Movement for Change Party, thanked all of the MPs who voted for him and in particular the leaders of the three major political parties in this coalition government; Ishmael Kalsakau Ma'aukoro from the Union of Moderate Parties, Jotham Napat of the Leaders Party and Ralph Regenvanu of the Graon Mo Jastis Party.

Salwai says Vanuatu is facing many challenges economically, socially and environmentally with climate change, and he acknowledged the added impacts that political instability were having on local businesses and society at large.

Despite the one-sided affair in parliament this afternoon the political instability in Vanuatu is likely to continue with only a handful of MPs required to shift the balance of power.

The immediate challenge facing the newly elected prime minister in forming his cabinet over the weekend will be keeping everybody in his new coalition government happy as he divvies out portfolios.

  • BREAKING NEWS

Sato Kilman elected as Vanuatu's new prime mFour-time Vanuatu prime minister Sato Kilman has been elected to the top job for a record fifth time on Monday in Port Vila, ousting Alatoi Ishmael Kalsakau's nine-month reign as the leader of government.

Kilman received a total of 27 votes, while Kalsakau got 23 votes.

Kilman, 65, was the deputy PM in Kalsakau's government before being removed in May. At the time Kalsakau had stated that Kilman's dismissal was for "stability of the coalition government".

"Mr speaker first and foremost I want to say a big thank you to the members of parliament and the political parties that supported the change in government. Thank you," he said.

"But thank you even more for standing your ground and for ensuring that democracy prevails in Vanuatu."

Earlier on Monday, Vanuatu's highest court - the Court of Appeal - dismissed an appeal against the removal Kalsakau.

Last month the opposition grouping, led by former PM Bob Loughman, brought a motion of no-confidence in Kalsakau.

They garnered 26 of the 49 votes cast but the parliamentary speaker ruled they had not reached what he considered the minimum 27 required for a successful motion in the 52 member House.

Loughman's group appealed to the courts, which last week ruled in their favour, but the speaker appealed that decision.

That appeal was dismissed, bringing an end to Kalsakau's tenure and triggering the election of the new prime minister.

Sato Kilman was sworn in as prime minister immediately after the vote on Monday evening.

He is expected to announce the composition of the cabinet of his new coalition government later this week.

  • The Nanda Blue Hole (also known as Jackie’s Blue Hole) is often referred to by visitors as the most beautiful blue hole in Vanuatu.

The water is a magical deep blue that has to be seen to be believed. Blue Holes are an amazing natural creation, formed by springs of fresh pure water rising to the surface cutting out a deep hole in the limestone. The blue hole surrounds have been specifically designed for day trippers, with a large under cover area, a bar with beer and soft drinks, picnic area and a swing with a platform.

Located half way between Luganville and Champayne Beach along the East Coast Road, the Nanda Bluehole is close to several resorts including Turtle Bay Lodge and Oyster Island Resort. A trip to the Nanda Blue Hole is a must for those visiting Santo!

  • Since the independece in 1980, Vanuatu has been a republic but the link with the British Crown remains important because Vanuatu is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations - an international organisation, headed by King Charles III.

During his visit in 2018 to Vanuatu, King (then Prince) Charles III was greeted by one of the most lavish displays of kastom seen on these shores, arguably since his mother Queen Elizabeth visited on the royal yacht in 1974.

Hundreds turned out to see the King as he arrived at the Chiefs’ Nakamal in Port Vila. Accompanied by Malvatumauri president Chief Seni Mau Tirsupe and welcomed by dozens of high ranking chiefs, the King walked on red mats laid the length of the roadway from the gate to the entrance of the nakamal itself.

On arriving outside the Nakamal, King Charles presented the president of the Malvatumaturi with gifts.

The gifts given in return by the chiefs of Vanuatu were quite literally priceless. Chiefly titles are not bestowed lightly, and carry obligation as well as honour. To bestow a title on even a royal prince is something to be done with care and consideration.

Charles was dressed in chiefly regalia before the ceremony could begin. Pentecost Chief Viraleo, leader of the Turaga kastom movement, bedecked the Prince with ornately woven kastom clothes. Although these clothes are normally worn over bare skin, the Prince was allowed to retain his suit and tie.

A leaf of the local Namele palm was placed in the back of the Prince’s attire. The Namele leaf is accompanied by extremely strong tabu. It is a sign of chiefly authority, and is present on Vanuatu’s coat of arms and in various other official insignia. The mere presence of a namele leaf in a doorway or gate, for example, is enough to bar anyone from passing unless they have chiefly authorisation.

  • The Millenium Cave is a popular excursion on Espiritu Santo, but getting there can be somewhat of a challenge. The Water Cave is a good alternative since it is easier to reach. 
You start at Nembel village and the follow this river bed to the Water Cave where you can see birds and bats. Heading back, you can enjoy the scenery from a coconut plantation.

Never a dull moment in Vanuatu. Yesterday, a volcano on the island Ambae suddenly erupted. These pictures were taken by @tatumjose on Espiritu Santo island, about 65 kilometers from Ambae. The last picture is made the morning after the eruption.

People living on the North and East coast of Ambae are ok, it was confirmed by local chief Paul from Ambanga, a village near the Manaro volcano. 

He said everyone enjoyed kava while they watched the eruption; the volcano is part of their life. 

There have been no reports of ash falls. 

There's been no feedback from the people on South Ambae. Let's hope they are ok as well.

  • Australia, New Zealand and France are working closely together to support the Government of Vanuatu's response to tropical cyclones Judy and Kevin and the earthquake that hit the island nation in the same days. Over 150.000 people (roughly half the population) have been affected.

On board the HMAS Canberra, Prime Minister Alatoi Ishmael Kalsakau and Ministers - including Climate Change Minister Ralph Regenvanu - met the ship's crew.

The ship's capabilities and the Australian Defence Force personnel on board are being deployed in accordance with National Disaster Management Office priorities, as part of an effective response that supports communities and sectors in need of assistance.

The World Bank has disbursed a US $9.5 million grant to help out. “We stand with Vanuatu as it confronts the impacts of the tragic convergence of disasters,” said Stephen Ndegwa, World Bank Country Director for the Pacific and Papua New Guinea. “While these are still early days in Vanuatu’s response, these funds can play an important part in assisting the most vulnerable, supporting damage assessments to better direct responses, and alleviating the impact on families and communities across Vanuatu.”

In between Fiji and New Caledonia lies a hidden gem of the Pacific not known to many people: Futuna Island. 

Futuna lies in the easternmost part of Vanuatu in the Tafea province. It is a tightknit community with a population of around 600 people. The island is sometimes called west Futuna to distinguish it from Wallis and Futuna, and also can be known as Erronan by its island neighbour, Tanna.

Although it is part of the Melanesian country of Vanuatu it is considered by some to be a Polynesian outlier with the Futunese language having a strong connection to Samoan, Tuvaluan, and Maori.

Futuna is said to be the 'Gateway' to the gospel in Vanuatu, the first island where its inhabitants accepted the gospel of Jesus Christ.  

There are 5 main villages on Futuna Island: Iasoa, Ipao, Matangi, Ihsia, and Imounga. These are the smiles from children and people from Iasoa and Ipao.

Happy Niu Yia!

As Vanuatu is on the other side of the earth, they start celebrating new year 10 hours earlier then we do in Belgium.

People from Vanuatu are called Ni-Van, which is short for Ni-Vanuatu.

Ni-Vanuatu is a recent coinage. It combines the name of the country (Vanuatu, etymologically "land that stands [by itself]", i.e. ‘independent country’) with a particle ni, which encodes the genitive in indigenous languages such as North Efate similar to "of" in English. Etymologically, the particle descends from Proto-Oceanic, Proto-Malayo-Polynesian and Proto-Austronesian *ni. 

The word Ni-Vanuatu thus simply means "of Vanuatu".

Uninhabited and untouched by modern society, Mystery Island will make you believe it wouldn't be so bad to be a marooned sailor in an old storybook. You'll find no electricity, roads or telephones here. A comfortable 30-minute walk will take you on a self-guided tour of the entire island. Only accessible by cruise ship and the nearby inhabitants of Aneityum, you'll truly get to experience life on a deserted island. Cruise to Mystery Island and explore the white-sand shoreline and its warm waters — go for a snorkel and see an incredible underwater world untouched by human influence.

Charlot Salwai becomes Vanuatu's 3rd Prime Minister in a month!

Vanuatu's last prime minister Sato Kilman has been voted out through a motion-of-no-confidence in the country's parliament.

The motion was carried by a show of hands, with 27 votes, in the absence of the government bench which had vacated the floor in protest ahead of the motion being moved.

Charlot Salwai was then nominated as the sole candidate for prime minister and was duly-elected by secret ballot with 29 votes in the absence again of the MPs on the other side of the house.

Salwai was previously prime minister from February 2016 up until the general election in 2020. He visited Brussels and I had the chance to meet him. He seemed a very nice man.

Immediately after the vote Salwai took his oath and was installed as the new prime minister of Vanuatu.

In his acceptance speech Salwai apologised to the Vanuatu public for the ongoing "political crises" which have seen four prime ministers elected now in the the space of three years.

He also thanked police for keeping the peace and thanked citizens for respecting the law and each other.

Salwai, who is the leader of the Reunification Movement for Change Party, thanked all of the MPs who voted for him and in particular the leaders of the three major political parties in this coalition government; Ishmael Kalsakau Ma'aukoro from the Union of Moderate Parties, Jotham Napat of the Leaders Party and Ralph Regenvanu of the Graon Mo Jastis Party.

Salwai says Vanuatu is facing many challenges economically, socially and environmentally with climate change, and he acknowledged the added impacts that political instability were having on local businesses and society at large.

Despite the one-sided affair in parliament this afternoon the political instability in Vanuatu is likely to continue with only a handful of MPs required to shift the balance of power.

The immediate challenge facing the newly elected prime minister in forming his cabinet over the weekend will be keeping everybody in his new coalition government happy as he divvies out portfolios.

Charlot Salwai becomes Vanuatu's 3rd Prime Minister in a month! Vanuatu's last prime minister Sato Kilman has been voted out through a motion-of-no-confidence in the country's parliament. The motion was carried by a show of hands, with 27 votes, in the absence of the government bench which had vacated the floor in protest ahead of the motion being moved. Charlot Salwai was then nominated as the sole candidate for prime minister and was duly-elected by secret ballot with 29 votes in the absence again of the MPs on the other side of the house. Salwai was previously prime minister from February 2016 up until the general election in 2020. He visited Brussels and I had the chance to meet him. He seemed a very nice man.

BREAKING NEWS

Sato Kilman elected as Vanuatu's new prime mFour-time Vanuatu prime minister Sato Kilman has been elected to the top job for a record fifth time on Monday in Port Vila, ousting Alatoi Ishmael Kalsakau's nine-month reign as the leader of government.

Kilman received a total of 27 votes, while Kalsakau got 23 votes.

Kilman, 65, was the deputy PM in Kalsakau's government before being removed in May. At the time Kalsakau had stated that Kilman's dismissal was for "stability of the coalition government".

"Mr speaker first and foremost I want to say a big thank you to the members of parliament and the political parties that supported the change in government. Thank you," he said.

"But thank you even more for standing your ground and for ensuring that democracy prevails in Vanuatu."

Earlier on Monday, Vanuatu's highest court - the Court of Appeal - dismissed an appeal against the removal Kalsakau.

Last month the opposition grouping, led by former PM Bob Loughman, brought a motion of no-confidence in Kalsakau.

They garnered 26 of the 49 votes cast but the parliamentary speaker ruled they had not reached what he considered the minimum 27 required for a successful motion in the 52 member House.

Loughman's group appealed to the courts, which last week ruled in their favour, but the speaker appealed that decision.

That appeal was dismissed, bringing an end to Kalsakau's tenure and triggering the election of the new prime minister.

Sato Kilman was sworn in as prime minister immediately after the vote on Monday evening.

He is expected to announce the composition of the cabinet of his new coalition government later this week.

The Nanda Blue Hole (also known as Jackie’s Blue Hole) is often referred to by visitors as the most beautiful blue hole in Vanuatu.

The water is a magical deep blue that has to be seen to be believed. Blue Holes are an amazing natural creation, formed by springs of fresh pure water rising to the surface cutting out a deep hole in the limestone. The blue hole surrounds have been specifically designed for day trippers, with a large under cover area, a bar with beer and soft drinks, picnic area and a swing with a platform.

Located half way between Luganville and Champayne Beach along the East Coast Road, the Nanda Bluehole is close to several resorts including Turtle Bay Lodge and Oyster Island Resort. A trip to the Nanda Blue Hole is a must for those visiting Santo!

Since the independece in 1980, Vanuatu has been a republic but the link with the British Crown remains important because Vanuatu is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations - an international organisation, headed by King Charles III.

During his visit in 2018 to Vanuatu, King (then Prince) Charles III was greeted by one of the most lavish displays of kastom seen on these shores, arguably since his mother Queen Elizabeth visited on the royal yacht in 1974.

Hundreds turned out to see the King as he arrived at the Chiefs’ Nakamal in Port Vila. Accompanied by Malvatumauri president Chief Seni Mau Tirsupe and welcomed by dozens of high ranking chiefs, the King walked on red mats laid the length of the roadway from the gate to the entrance of the nakamal itself.

On arriving outside the Nakamal, King Charles presented the president of the Malvatumaturi with gifts.

The gifts given in return by the chiefs of Vanuatu were quite literally priceless. Chiefly titles are not bestowed lightly, and carry obligation as well as honour. To bestow a title on even a royal prince is something to be done with care and consideration.

Charles was dressed in chiefly regalia before the ceremony could begin. Pentecost Chief Viraleo, leader of the Turaga kastom movement, bedecked the Prince with ornately woven kastom clothes. Although these clothes are normally worn over bare skin, the Prince was allowed to retain his suit and tie.

A leaf of the local Namele palm was placed in the back of the Prince’s attire. The Namele leaf is accompanied by extremely strong tabu. It is a sign of chiefly authority, and is present on Vanuatu’s coat of arms and in various other official insignia. The mere presence of a namele leaf in a doorway or gate, for example, is enough to bar anyone from passing unless they have chiefly authorisation.

The gifts given in return by the chiefs of Vanuatu were quite literally priceless. Chiefly titles are not bestowed lightly, and carry obligation as well as honour. To bestow a title on even a royal prince is something to be done with care and consideration.

Charles was dressed in chiefly regalia before the ceremony could begin. Pentecost Chief Viraleo, leader of the Turaga kastom movement, bedecked the Prince with ornately woven kastom clothes. Although these clothes are normally worn over bare skin, the Prince was allowed to retain his suit and tie.

A leaf of the local Namele palm was placed in the back of the Prince’s attire. The Namele leaf is accompanied by extremely strong tabu. It is a sign of chiefly authority, and is present on Vanuatu’s coat of arms and in various other official insignia. The mere presence of a namele leaf in a doorway or gate, for example, is enough to bar anyone from passing unless they have chiefly authorisation.

Since the independece in 1980, Vanuatu has been a republic but the link with the British Crown remains important because Vanuatu is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations - an international organisation, headed by King Charles III.

During his visit in 2018 to Vanuatu, King (then Prince) Charles III was greeted by one of the most lavish displays of kastom seen on these shores, arguably since his mother Queen Elizabeth visited on the royal yacht in 1974.

Hundreds turned out to see the King as he arrived at the Chiefs’ Nakamal in Port Vila.

The Millenium Cave is a popular excursion on Espiritu Santo, but getting there can be somewhat of a challenge. The Water Cave is a good alternative since it is easier to reach. 
You start at Nembel village and the follow this river bed to the Water Cave where you can see birds and bats. Heading back, you can enjoy the scenery from a coconut plantation.

BREAKING NEWS

Never a dull moment in Vanuatu. Yesterday, a volcano on the island Ambae suddenly erupted. These pictures were taken by @tatumjose on Espiritu Santo island, about 65 kilometers from Ambae. The last picture is made the morning after the eruption.

People living on the North and East coast of Ambae are ok, it was confirmed by local chief Paul from Ambanga, a village near the Manaro volcano. 

He said everyone enjoyed kava while they watched the eruption; the volcano is part of their life. 

There have been no reports of ash falls. 

There's been no feedback from the people on South Ambae. Let's hope they are ok as well.

Australia, New Zealand and France are working closely together to support the Government of Vanuatu's response to tropical cyclones Judy and Kevin and the earthquake that hit the island nation in the same days. Over 150.000 people (roughly half the population) have been affected.

On board the HMAS Canberra, Prime Minister Alatoi Ishmael Kalsakau and Ministers - including Climate Change Minister Ralph Regenvanu - met the ship's crew.

The ship's capabilities and the Australian Defence Force personnel on board are being deployed in accordance with National Disaster Management Office priorities, as part of an effective response that supports communities and sectors in need of assistance.

The World Bank has disbursed a US $9.5 million grant to help out. “We stand with Vanuatu as it confronts the impacts of the tragic convergence of disasters,” said Stephen Ndegwa, World Bank Country Director for the Pacific and Papua New Guinea. “While these are still early days in Vanuatu’s response, these funds can play an important part in assisting the most vulnerable, supporting damage assessments to better direct responses, and alleviating the impact on families and communities across Vanuatu.”
