FILE - In this Thursday, Sept. 22, 2005 file photo, locals on the beach in Noumea, New Caledonia, play the traditional ball game "petanque". Voters in New Caledonia, a French archipelago in the South Pacific, are to choose whether they want independence from France in a referendum that marks a milestone in a three-decades-long decolonization effort. The vote on Sunday, Oct. 4, 2020 is key to determine the future of the archipelago east of Australia and its 270,000 inhabitants, including the native Kanaks, who once suffered from strict segregation policies, and the descendants of European colonizers.
