Talk:Melekeok (town)

Pronounce
Can anyone provide me with the brief details of this city's pronunciation in English? It's just that I havn't heard it spoken yet, though I have used it myself in private conversation and it worries me that I could be seriously mispronouncing it. Thanks. Evlekis 11:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)


 * It's pronounced 'MEH-luh-kee-ok.'

Reason for move of capital
Does anyone have any information on WHY the capital was moved from Koror to Melekeok? I've been looking for anything I can find and nothing says anything about the reason or purpose of the move, only thing I can find are questions as to whether the capital is Melekeok or Ngerulmud.

All I have is a personal guess that (given that Melekeok seems no more unique an area than the rest of the island and the new capital building stands fairly alone) the government may be trying to construct a new (possibly planed) capital away from established population centers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.202.113.212 (talk) 01:39, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
