By Pulotu Ilavalu

HONOLULU (Pacific Islands Report, Sept. 27) – I will take this opportunity to inform our dissappoint for the Crisis happen in our homeland Wallis et Futuna.

In past 5-6 months the King of Wallis His Majesty King Lavelua Tomasi Kulimoetoke and his Goverment forsee the Pro [re]former New Goverment fully surport by the French Prefer in Wallis Mr Xavier confirm to change the Political system in Wallis to a New King also change their Contract and the law was issue and sign by His Majesty on 1961.

This move can inform us we are Wallissian people reside in The Kingdom of Tonga, the Terrosimn in The Pacific.

We aware Terrosimn comes from Far East but now our Local Terrosimn can do system can earnup for fight and War,

Today we receive phone call from the Royal Palace in Wallis and confirm us There are no New King in Wallis. Also those people involve the Pro New Goverment and New King they get lost.

I’m asking where is French Goverment they support this movement? Where is the French Prefer he’s a Mediator before and earnup for his fully surpport a new King instead of His Majesty.

I and The Community member in Tonga confuse The Proformer New Goverment also the New King was get ready to Crown Today how they listening and trust French without follow their Law was sign in 1961.

This issue is a illegally system done by the French Goverment.

It’s better to submit many compliment document to the Pacific Forum meeting also the UN meeting to analysis this problem.

Cause the family and the Traditional also culture will be look forward for more problem in near future we need to everybody know French doing action than the People of Wallis fight also do something for their airport and put rock for main road of the island.

What happen for the people’s future; what happen for the people of Wallis was stay in safe.

So be aware of the France push problem to Wallis people.

I’m praying the truth and the right of Wallis people settle and inform France Goverment doing trouble in Wallis.

Pulotu Ilavalu is Chairman of the Wallis Community Committee in Tonga.
