Former Vanuatu Lands Minister 'available' for PM position

The former Lands minister Ralph Regenvanu says he's available for the position of Vanuatu's next Prime Minister.

Regenvanu's Graon mo Jastis party is one of 11 political groups including 36 MPs, which have signed a Memorandum of Agreement to form a new coalition.

It came after days of closed door negotiations and also features the Vanuaaku Party, led by former Prime Minister Joe Natuman and the party of the jailed former PM, Moana Carcasses Kalosil, the Vanuatu Green Confederation.

Regenvanu says the agreement wasn't hard to reach, but whether the coalition holds together even for the next week before Parliament sits, is another matter entirely
