On January 11, 1978, the first government was formed by the
moderate parties, under the chairmanship of Georges Kalsakau, of the Natatok
party. This party had been founded by G. Kalsakau on July 12, 1977. The Natatok
Efate ("Natives of Vate") exerted its influence on island of Vate and on the
neighboring islands. The flag represents the beauty of the nation (light blue
background), the vigilance and the will of the citizens (the two thin red
bands), the Melanesian population (central black band). The 4 white stars
represent the 4 districts of the country.
On April 5, 1978 the Kalsakau
government and the opponents of Vanuaaku Pati concluded a truce, the GPPV
suspended its activities. On December 22, 1978, a government of national unity
was formed. Gerard Leymang, of the Tan Union party, Catholic priest, one of the
best "political heads" of the Francophone Melanesian community, is elected Chief
Minister. (Chief Minister) Pastor Walter Uni, leader of Vanuaaku Pati, is
appointed Deputy Chief Minister. This government is responsible for drawing up a
constitution.
