The current chair of the MSG, Vanuatu's Prime Minister, Edward Natapei, said earlier he would invite Fiji's Commodore Frank Bainimarama to a special meeting in Port Vila to try and settle concerns over the chairmanship.

Fiji was to assume the chair of the MSG at a summit next week but that meeting was scuttled amid concerns at the organisation being headed by an unelected leader and Fiji's push to invite other Pacific countries to take part.

Mr Haomae believes this and other issues will be sorted out at that meeting.
"We'll cross the bridge when we come to it and this special meeting...I think all the leaders have the capacity to resolve this particular issue at this special summit," said Mr Haomae.

No date has been set for the Vanuatu meeting.
