In Papua New Guinea Sir Michael Somare has declared he has the numbers to form the next government. The Prime Minister beat ten other candidates to take the seat of Wewak in East Sepik province by a margin of nine-thousand votes. Sir Michael has been holding talks with leaders of smaller parties and independent candidates in an attempt to gather enough seats for his National Alliance party to form a coalition government. But he'll face challenges on that front.
