|Regional borders were redrawn, with the excuse of connection to the national water network. These new borders saw Whangamomona being part of the Manawatu-Wanganui region. The residents disagreed, because they wanted to continue to be part of the Taranaki region mainly for reasons related to the rivalry between their respective regional rugby teams, and on November 1, 1989, they responded by declaring themselves independent. The city continues to celebrate Republic Day annually and at the same time democratically elects the president. | |Regional borders were redrawn, with the excuse of connection to the national water network.
