Dear Editor – If the proposed bill to have 10 seats reserve for women who want to become politicians go through the house before the house dies its natural death by the end of this year, we should know the 10 lucky ladies who will be in the next new line up of MPs in…
Dear Editor – I write to thank the former Attorney General of Solomon Islands for his clear reply (SS5415) to my earlier article on Soqavare’s Moti and also acknowledged the reply from Hon. Soqavare. My then reaction to this sadly continuous debate was based on articles published in this paper at those early times. Now…
Dear Editor – I promised myself that I would keep out of the Moti related correspondence but, as one of the people he would no doubt put in the category of swine, I cannot resist the temptation to comment on Mr Moti’s reference to pearls in yesterday’s letter to the Star. He said that his…
Dear Editor – It is very sad indeed for the country that national governments have come and gone over the years, yet one person remains a permanent feature of the national leadership circles. His name is Dominic (whatever). It seems that in the Prime Minister’ office, this person can be whoever he wants to be,…
Dear Editor – The central island police at Tulagi are not doing their duty. Many serious cases have been reported to them but no arrest had been taking place or even writing the reporter’s statement, but instead verbal only. I wonder why and what is going on in the office of the PPC commander with…

As some who knows what’s going on in there, I would say the rehabilitation…
Dear Editor – Counters 4 & 5 at the Treasury are no longer carrying out any of the other services they normally provide as they succumbed to the extraordinary pressure of SICHE/SINU students’ demand to resolve academic transcripts issues. Relevant responsible authorities in Finance should go down there and rescue the situation now in danger…
Dear Editor – Grateful indeed if you could please allow me a space in your paper to express my views and that of other fellow colleague teachers, concerning the above subject. Around September last year, there were number of in-service teachers throughout the country both in Honiara and out in provinces who received application forms…
Dear Editor – We Tikopians are quite known for our respect, kindness and other good cultural behaviours. We are generally peaceful, non-hostile citizens of our country. These are some of the products of good relationship between the chiefs and the people. However, these good relationships will keep on diminishing if the above subject is not…
Dear Editor – At the outset, it appears that the issue regarding Moti’s compensation has drawn both legal and political overtones. I am not privy to Moti’s employment contract with the Solomon Islands Government. Hence, if he is therefore claiming for dues he is entitled to under that contract, then perhaps that is something the…
