2010 Easter Island moai referendum
A non-binding referendum on loaning a moai to France was held in Easter Island on 1 March 2010.[1] Voters were asked whether they agreed with the Mare Nostrum Foundation displaying a moai in Paris,[1] which had first been proposed in 2008.[2] The loan was rejected by 89% of voters.[3] As a result, on 14 April 2010 the Consejo de Monumentos Nacionales decided that the moai would not be sent to France.[1]
