A concerned youth member is calling on Malaita’s Provincial Government (MPG) to shift its focus to developing and implementing sustainable activities that lack support from donors and the national government.
Mary Onahikeni said the provincial government has shifted its focus to other developments like infrastructure, which she says are important.
However, she stresses that these areas have huge support, especially from the national government.
“Malaita’s provincial government should instead put more focus on areas which have no support.
“Pineapple juice, melon juice, meat from cattle and piggery, fish, chocolate, oil, and hydroelectricity, to name a few,” she said.
Onahikeni said these sustainable development activities will provide employment for youths and engage them in positive social activities.
She also urges Malaita’s national leaders to work together, support each other and build the economy of Malaita province.
“I urge Malaita’s national leaders to work together with the province and reflect on the sustainable activities that your people are currently doing. It is your time to create good opportunities for your people,” she said.
