A series of meetings have been scheduled after an important dinner hosted by our Honorable Floor Leader Delegate Gibson Kanai.  His Excellency Tommy E. Remengesau Jr., Governor Benjamin Iskawa, and the Ngaraard State House of Chiefs Maderngebuked Thomas Remengesau Sr., Ngirameketii and Minister of Finance Elbuchel Sadang, Ngirarois Francis Kib and the entire 10th Ngaraard State Assembly members were on attendance.

Among the issues discussed were unity/fellowship between each government body to steam line priorities as we take a new step to address development goals and bring success and growth to our communities.  Delegate Kanai, the three presiding Chiefs, Governor Iskawa, and our Assembly Speaker Wilbert Ngirakamerang all emphasized the importance of working together to achieve real progress for our state and our citizens.

President Remengesau highlighted several areas were development could be realized but tasked each state body to be mindful of the many state level responsibilities before real investment and growth could be assessed. A hint of potential funding for state projects could be achieved provided that all state government levels work toward unified goals.

In addition, Governor Iskawa shared his inaugural plans to have his ceremony on the 2nd of February (Friday, 02/02/2018).  This will give time to our close partner state of Peleliu to visit us as we install our new governor and celebrate this year of good health.

Finally, the office of the President was given the task to host the next leadership meeting in March 2018 to follow up on discussed priority areas.  The 10th Ngaraard State Assembly humbly extends its thanks to His Exellency Tommy E. Remengesau, the House of Chiefs, and our host Honorable Floor Leader Gibson Kanai for an exemplary night of needed discussions.
