Independence of the Federal State: Is New Caledonia Still Comfortable in the Palm of France?

"It might reduce the desire for independence in some New Caledonians. But if then the French had acted otherwise, simply dredging and exploiting New Caledonia without regard for the welfare of the citizens and the rights of the citizens, then surely this rebellion would have increased. So, it depends on how France treats New Caledonia." Fadhlan explained that France's treatment largely determined the federation of New Caledonia.

Behind New Caledonia's determination to remain with France, of course, there are important figures in New Caledonia who also play an important role in maintaining their federal state. Including the government in the form of the House of Representatives representing New Caledonia in France, of course, has great influence to stay under the anti-independence line.

In addition to the referendum issue continuing to be echoed as a form of independence, France has the ability to unilaterally relinquish New Caledonia. However, the referendum became the most elegant way to find out whether the people of the region still wanted to be with France or not. It became a legal and civilized political mechanism.

In order to keep the democratic system running, the referendum effort is a very good thing to know what the voice of the people in the New Caledonia region looks like

As the international community knows until now, the fact is that the results of the referendum the people of New Caledonia still want to remain with France.
