The August 3rd comment is very interesting, but it appears that WHITE has been stalemated for more than one move. Another attempt:

WHITE TO MOVE - - - FIDE Chess allows 1.Ka1 a3, 2.Kxa2 stalemate

Since 2.Kxa2 is an illegal move in Sittuyin, it follows that 1... a3 stalemated WHITE.

Since 1... a3 is an illegal move in Sittuyin, it follows that 1.Ka1 stalemated BLACK.

Since 1.Ka1 is an illegal move in Sittuyin, a different move has to be played.
