Edward Natapei
Edward Nipake Natapei Tuta Fanua`araki〔〔http://www.worldleadersindex.org/Australasia/Vanuatu.html〕 (17 July 1954〔http://www.dailypost.vu/news/article_e035d44c-4649-5aca-b60c-dd0fc3eb3d38.html〕 – 28 July 2015) was a politician from Vanuatu. He was elected Prime Minister of Vanuatu on two separate occasions for two separate terms, and was previously the Minister of Foreign Affairs briefly in 1991, the acting President of Vanuatu from 2 March 1999 to 24 March 1999 (during a time in which he was the Speaker of Parliament) and Deputy Prime Minister. He was the President of the Vanua'aku Pati, a socialist, Anglophone political party.
==Politics==
Natapei was first elected to Parliament in 1983. In 1996, he was elected as Speaker of Parliament, and in 1999 he was elected as President of Vanua'aku Pati.〔("Biographies of Speakers: Pacific 2020 Conference" ), AusAID.〕 In a parliamentary vote on 25 November 1999, Natapei was a candidate for the position of Prime Minister, but was defeated by Barak Sopé, receiving 24 votes against 28 for Sope.〔"Nov 1999 – New government", Keesing's Record of World Events, Volume 45, November, 1999 Vanuatu, Page 43269.〕 When Sopé lost a vote of no confidence, Natapei became Prime Minister on 13 April 2001, receiving 27 votes in parliament, with one vote against him.〔"Apr 2001 – New government", Keesing's Record of World Events, Volume 47, April, 2001 Vanuatu, Page 44111.〕 He retained the position after the May 2002 election.〔"May 2002 – Legislative elections", Keesing's Record of World Events, Volume 48, May, 2002 Vanuatu, Page 44795.〕 Even though his party performed poorly in the July 2004 election, he was re-elected as a Member of Parliament for the Port Vila Constituency with the highest number of votes. He supported Ham Lini for the post of Prime Minister, but Lini was defeated; however, Serge Vohor was ousted in a motion of no confidence and Ham Lini was elected Prime Minister. Being Vanua'aku Party President entitled Natapei to the post of Speaker of the House, which he declined and referred to Sam Dan Avock, who was a Party Executive Member.
Natapei became Minister for Infrastructure and Public Utilities in the Lini-led government in July 2005.〔 A split in Vanua'aku Pati was resolved in August 2005, and Natapei was re-elected as its President,〔("Former PM to lead reunified party in Vanuatu" ), ABC Radio Australia, 31 August 2005.〕 receiving 124 votes against 67 for Sela Molisa.〔 In late July 2007 he became Minister of Public Utilities again, replacing Serge Vohor, as well as becoming Deputy Prime Minister.〔("Vanuatu reshuffles cabinet again" ), ABC Radio Australia, 30 July 2007.〕
