Paramount Chief Maseiman and his community took the initiative to launch the siren system as well as Tsunami Information Boards and Tsunami Evacuation Signs in their village on 1st May 2017 to coincide with celebrations to commemorate the arrival of Christianity to the shores of Efate.
Maseiman likened the siren and signage to the “Saviour” in that the system will save his people in the event of a tsunami.
