Solomon Islands Government makes the right decision

A sigh of relief
It's a sigh of relief for thousands of Solomon Islanders. The waiting is nearly over. Would the Solomon Islands government and Julian Moti humble themselves and let the law take its cause?

Yes, finally, the Solomon Islands Government, particularly Cabinet has endorsed that suspended Attorney General Julian Moti can now travel to Australia to discuss with legal eagles why he is wanted in Australia.

Solomon Islands Cabinet must be commended, in reaching such a decision that points the way forward to mending relations with the Australian government and judiciary over the Moti issue. The decision was not a surprised, but its when, Solomon Islands would succumb to the Pacific region's Big Brother. This is not to demean Solomon as a sovereign nation. No. It is just that leaders need to come to their senses in a situation that they cannot win. And, with the 2007 Budget being finalised, Solomon Islands cannot afford to be stubborn.

The Cabinet's decision must be seen as how Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare described it as being made in the interest of diplomacy. Not only that, but the thousands of Solomon Islanders can breath a sigh of relief that the Moti issue is finnally being addressed. And, there may be a green light at the end of the tunnel.

In a statement Prime Minister Sogavare says the government appreciated the fact that Solomon Islands was part of the region (Pacific) so when it came to such issues, it was duty-bound to look at them seriously for the simple reason of keeping the region free of whatever that would undermine its peace and security. However, he says the government also needed to look seriously at such requests adding that the case of Julian Moti was interesting because it was already cleared by the Vanuatu Judiciary and the question why Australia decided to pursue him for the case only after he was appointed as Solomon Islands Attorney General.

Moti by the way is still an innocent person until proven guilty on the alleged charges laid on him. MyBlog believes Solomon Islanders will welcome him with open arms, now that he would be travelling to Australia to try and clear his name.

No threat of instability
Prime Minister Sogavare has welcomed the resignation of the Deputy Prime Minister, Job Dudley Tausinga, saying he respected the decision taken by the MP for North New Georgia.

The Government Communications Unit says Mr Tausinga’s resignation as a Cabinet minister on Tuesday came just a week after he was moved from Forestry, Environment and Conservation to a new portfolio as Minister for Mines and Energy. The Prime Minister has indicated that the reshuffling of ministerial posts with Mr Tausinga and former Minister for Mines and Energy, Mark Kemakeza influenced the decision the Deputy PM had taken.

Mr Sogavare says as the leader of the government, he has decided on the reshuffling exercise because he felt that Mr Tausinga has a serious conflict of interest regarding the issue of alleged illegal felling of logs that took place at his own constituency, and his duty as the Minister for Forestry, Environment and Conservation.

Isabel New Premier
Isabel has a new Premier.

He is Reuben Dotho. He was elected today defeating the former Premier James Habu eleven votes to five. Mr Dotho was a former public servant for 30 years, and comes from Buala village. He was the General Manager of the Isabel Development Company before contesting in the provincial election. Before that Mr Dotho was the Isabel Provincial Secretary.

The new Premier has promised he would include women in his new Provincial Executive. Two women won seats in the recent elections on Isabel. I can hear the women say "Three happy cheers to you Premier."

Be positive, enjoy every moment in life.
