Prime Minister Jeremiah Manele will be having important engagements both domestically and abroad starting next week.
He revealed this during his press conference with local media at Office of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (OPMC) yesterday.
“Looking ahead, the coming weeks will include several important engagements, both domestically and abroad. Next week, I will be in Noro, Western Province, to officiate the official opening and handing over of the new Noro Police Station,” he said.
Prime Minister Manele said this facility represents continued collaboration to improve police presence and support safer communities, with the support from the Government of Australia.
“Following this, I will travel to Kolombangara for the presentation of certificates of the Investment Corporation of Solomon Islands (ICSI) shares at KFPL to Kolombangara Islands Investment Limited. From there, I will travel to Isabel Province for the opening and handover of two health centres in the Hograno, Kia/Havulei constituency,” he said.
The Prime Minister added that he will also be travelling to Brisbane, Australia, to attend the 14th Australia-Solomon Islands Business Forum, which provides an opportunity to promote trade, investment and private sector collaboration between our two countries upon his return to Honiara.
He also told the media that Parliament is expected to reconvene on 24th November 2025.
The PM’s press conference yesterday was joined by the Permanent Secretary for Mines, Energy and Rural Electrification, Dr Chris Vehe, the Chairman of the SIWA Board, Dr. Culwick Togamana, supported by Secretary to the Prime Minister (SPM), Dr Melchior Mataki, who also serves as a SIWA Board member and Attorney General, John Muria (Jnr).
