DEAR EDITOR, I offer my personal thanks to the newly created Honiara Band Association (HBA) and to its chairperson, Benjamin Afuga, for the plan to organise a two-day live band concert in Honiara to raise money for the National Referral Hospital (NRH) this weekend.
It is known the fundraising event is intended to raise money to donate to the NRH so the hospital’s authorities can quickly purchase locally available medicine and drugs which have reported to be in short supply at the NRH at this time.
I commend the idea of helping the NRH during the reported critical shortage of drugs and medical supplies.
I very much hope the live band concert will be a success and achieve the objectives intended.
I would also like to thank all the participants taking part in the two-day fund raising event and the RSIPF for allowing the Rove Police Club to be used as the venue.
Yours sincerely
Frank Short
