43 years after independence the chiefs of Aneityum welcome word of Vanuatu’s laws
PORT VILA, DECEMBER 20: Last week, 43 years after independence, chiefs on Vanuatu’s southernmost island of Aneityum welcomed teams raising awareness of the country’s laws for the first time. Malvatumauri, with support from the Vanuatu Australia Policing and Justice Program (VAPJP), has developed a workshop to help chiefs perform their customary law roles in communities and to better understand the state-made laws of Vanuatu.
