The Pentecost Star is a ni-Vanuatu weekly newspaper, issued on Pentecost Island. It was founded in August 2007 by Keithly Hango.[1][2]
The Star has the particularity of having started out as "the only newspaper that’s written by hand".[2][3] Its founder was a 37-year-old "former Trading Post newspaper boy", who stated that his aim was "to disseminate interesting, factual information to the people of Pentecost".[4] Hango wrote every edition entirely by hand, and distributed copies to Sara Airport and to the Saratamata Penama Provincial Government Council.[5] He received congratulations and best wishes from the Solomon Times "for his exemplary efforts in undertaking such an initiative".[6]
In April 2008, Hango visited Vanuatu's capital, Port Vila, to publicise his newspaper in the hopes of developing it further.[7] In July, Radio Vanuatu reported that the newspaper had been relaunched in printed form, and that it would be distributed in Port Vila and Luganville.[8]
