"Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong’s visit to New Caledonia a few weeks
ago made few headlines. In fact, it barely made the news.
Yet, her visit came at a crucial juncture for the French overseas territory,
which is trying to negotiate a viable path towards a lasting
self-determination, which balances the rights of New Caledonia’s Indigenous
populations with the political reality of three failed independence
referendums.
A new country is still emerging just off Australia’s coast, albeit in a slow
path towards decolonisation in a process guided, but not governed, by France."
