Tulensa W. Palik is the current governor of Kosrae, Micronesia.[1]

He ran in the 2022 Kosrae State gubernatorial run-off election against Carson Sigrah. Palik won 59.19% of the vote while Sigrah won 40.81%.[2]

In 2023, the YouTube channel Rare Earth claimed[3] to have overheard a meeting between the governor and Chinese representatives that were looking for support in case of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan. The meeting took place after the president of Micronesia had denounced China in a public letter in favor of closer relations with the west.
