President Mori to Speaker Halbert regarding Micronesia Presidents’ Summit

FSMIS (June 25, 2013): On June 24, President Manny Mori extended an invitation to FSM Speaker Dohsis Halbert to consider joining the FSM delegation to the Micronesia Presidents’ Summit in Palau on July 11-12. 

“As you are aware, the Summit provides an excellent opportunity for the leadership of our three Micronesian nations to gather and discuss important matter of interests and concerns, adding much value to our collective efforts in enhancing and strengthening our Micronesian solidarity.”

The Summit is the premier Leaders’ meeting among the Federated State of Micronesia, the Republic of Palau and the Republic of the Marshall Islands whose contiguous geographical jurisdictions span an ocean area of approximately 2 million square miles – two thirds the size of the Continent of Australia and slightly twice the area combining the states of California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico in the United States.

A few cabinet members having direct technical input and outcome review obligations will accompany the President to the meeting.
