According to his press secretary Deli Oso, Sogavare already visited two other MSG capitals of Port Vila, Vanuatu, and Suva, Fiji in January.
He did not travel to Port Moresby because his counterpart, Peter O’Neil was unavailable at the time.
Sogavare also met New Caledonia’s FLNKs representative in his January visit to Port Vila.
And while in Suva, Sogavare witnessed the signing of the new Melanesian Free Trade Agreement by Fiji’s Prime Minister, Frank Bainimarama.
