    The musical score is really creepy, like something I’d expect to hear accompanying a ritual sacrifice, were there really such a thing as ritual sacrifice.
  • There are no new voting rules. 10 years residency was agreed as part of Noumea accord in 1998. Independent movement asked french president Chirac to freeze the voting rights in 2007. Now that they lost 3 referendums on independence they resort to violence whereas all clauses of Noumea agreements have been fulfilled, all saved this one on voting rights.
