5 March - Custom Chief's Day in Vanuatu
Vanuatu is a small island country in Melanesia. It proclaimed its independence in 1980 during the Coconut War. After independence, the government erected several public buildings, including a national museum, the House of Parliament, and the House of Custom Chiefs - the National Council of Chiefs (Malvatu Mauru), an advisory body of tribal chiefs.
In 1977 a National Council of Chiefs was set up by the government to advise and propose ways to ensure the preservation of traditional ways of life through Vanuatu. These tribal chiefs are honored on March 5 of each year, which is a public holiday. The celebration of Custom Chief’s Day includes lavish feasts, sporting events and impromptu sports matches are popular, as are money-raising carnivals, agricultural fairs, arts festivals, singing, dancing, and other festivities.
