More people came into the fale/hale ☺🧡
This year for the first time since it's creation, KNC wasn't present for at FESTPAC (in Hawaii this year) .
Our fale was empty, no music, no dance, no loud voices and wonky accent when trying to speak English, no smile, no laughter... A few days ago, the original poster of this photo felt sad seeing this but when he drew near, there was a person sitting there alone 😃
He went closer and said "Est-ce que tu représente la Nouvelle-Calédonie ? " (Do you represent New Caledonia?/Are you here to represent New Caledonia?) and the person answered 'Sorry, I don't speak French'
He understood that this person wasn't in their respective fale, and they continued saying: ' I'm from Fidji and I'm here to occupy the hale for my brothers who didn't come'.
So OP told them: 'ok brother, then I will sit here with you'.
And they shared a nice moment talking
As OP said 'This is Oceania: a big family'
