Hon. Peter Kenilorea Jr, while I agree with your concern about hospitals which is important; I also think that the timing of your concern is not completely genuine as it seems to sound like it has some politically motivated tones to it. 1. Since we gained our independence in 1978, we have more than ten governments running this country, why push for hospitals just now? I'm not saying that hospitals are not important, I'm actually talking about the timing of the call. 2. The Solomon Islands government after winning the bid in 2016 to host the 17th Pacific Games, had approached its traditional partners to help fund the facilities, but there was no positive response. Then China stepped forward and offered that much needed helping hand, and the rest is history. 3. China's funding is purposely for the construction of a stadium; therefore diverting the funds for other purposes other than the stadium is pure corruption and Hon. Peter Kenilorea Jr knows that. 4. If our other partners are so concerned about hospitals then nothing stops them from funding them. As the saying goes: "put your money where your mouth is." By the way, China is now building a Comprehensive Medical Centre at the eastern end of Honiara's Central Hospital so I think it's a good news for us. 5. To be fair; if all the media organisations apply a wholistic approach in their coverage of important issues, in a truly independent manner, covering both positive and negative sides of those issues; people would be grateful to see such important issues for what they truly are. However, the fact that all Western media are all negative about China and never appreciate anything proves to me that the problem is not with China, the problem is actually with the Western media.
Teroris KKB di suplai persenjataannya oleh inggris, australia, dan amerika, untuk memerangi indonesia dengan dalih membela hak asasi manusia, Agar merdeka. Sehingga tanah papua bisa di miliki oleh inggris. Itu faktanya. Disisi lain, para pengungsi rohingya, yang datang puluhan ribu orang, meminta hak tanah dan pulau indonesia agar merdeka dan berdaulat, seperti negara lain. Teroris KKB dan Penyerbu pulau di aceh, tujuannya sama, yakni mendirikan negaranya sendiri. Siapa yang di sebut teroris ?
Sepertinya Inggris tidak terima ada wilayah negara lain yang bukan persemakmuran Inggris seperti Indonesia ada di benua Australia, mengingat keseluruhan Pulau Papua bagian dari landas benua Australia. Negara Australia dan Papua Nugini adalah negara persemakmuran Inggris yang berada di Benua Australia sedangkan Provinsi Papua merupakan wilayah Indonesia negara yang bukan persemakmuran & jajahan Inggris tapi berada di Benua Australia. Jadi seolah-olah Inggris ingin keseluruhan Benua Australia termasuk Provinsi Papua Indonesia menjadi sekutu Inggris atau 'dirampas' negara persemakmuran Inggris seperti Australia. Jadi Inggris ingin keseluruhan Benua Australia termasuk Papua Indonesia dengan cara apapun agar bisa merdeka dan menjadi hasil kekuasaan Inggris.
Australia have had been using the concept of big brother to our smaller nations but reporters with those western centric minds will always label our smaller island countries poor. China will never belittle any smaller states. No wonder island states turning to China because China will never call any country poor.
@@mangiblotarinawabag4964 I see nothing about dictator you talkin about in Government now.. Only I can see is true leader.. No bound down to any other country...
@mangiblotarinawabag4964 It's seems people are using terminologies that they themselves don't understand. Can you explain what a dictator is like? I will easily debunk all your misconceptions on the term and show you that Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare is not a dictator but a true leader.
china is the best supporter, inorder to have more infrustracture china is the main country will provide. Australia will never do that. they will only call solomom islands the poorest country in the world.
There is no need to criticise Australia. Australia is there for Solomon Islands in time of need and will always there. China ars here for money. They rip off our resources and take over all Solomon Islands businesses. Sports facilities will serve sports only. Solomon Islanders are selling their goods on the street while the chinese own every shops from white river to henderson and all the money from here are send back to china. The logging and mining in our provinces bring nothing but destroyed environment where rural people live on which including the sea. Australia is the best friend of Solomon Islands that provided work for many.Solomon Islanders through seasonal work scheme. China cannot do that. They are here to rip us from our resources. You should apologise to Australia for your stupid comment.

Australian : papua free papua free Indonesian : How about Aborigin ? Australian : ..... Indonesian : so what u wanna do ? australian : freedom west papua Indonesian : you wanna war with my ? Australian : ..... Bastard country 🤡🇭🇲
Let West Papua become independent nation, West Papuans are fighting for their freedom, they are not terrorist. Indonesia doesn't want to give independence , that's root cause of the problem,
Did India can easily let free kashmir, did turkiye let kurds, did aussie let aboriginal tribe, or China, or almost every asean countries cases? Just because some head tribe or some gold motivated people want freedom (for economic resources) doesn't mean everybody else wants the same. The minorities is the loudest here in papua. They have guns and willing to kill every civilian dissagree with their purpose.
papua has been ransacked by indonesia and the us already... what value does the island have.. infrastructure nonexistent, tribal wars still everywhere, corruption will definetly increase when they're independent... not saying they dont deserve independence.
The mine built a tailing pipeline to reduce this problem. The mine was shut down because of a money grab by some young radicals, they advised they would let the mine continue if BCL handed over 14 billion Australian dollars. The company tried to negotiate with them but before talks could be set up the radicals started to blow things up. From there things escalated. I know I was there.
@YLKVT.679 you hurted ?? I am asking if your sister is your mum ? Cause palestine is palestine and Israël doesnt exist its just people who left Europe for colonize palestine
UN please intervene and put a complete stop to this continuous evil genocide act by Indonesian Govt and it's military to our Melanesians family the West Papuans. May God almighty punish them Indonesians and Liberate West Papuans to Self Determination- Independence!
The United Nations shall not interfere with the Internal Affairs of Indonesia as per Article 2 Clause 7 Which States that: "the United Nations has no authority to intervene in matters which are within the domestic jurisdiction of any State". The Abuse Of Human Rights were also committed by both sides, not just the Indonesian Security Forces.
We Indonesian military were also trained by the Australian SAS we learn from the best. We all knew Australian SAS had a war crime allegations too in Afghanistan. An SAS soldier killed an Afghan man in cold blooded. Maybe you need to start wandering how such things could happen. Considering you westerners have super human morals, ain't you?
@YLKVT.679I'm just trying to say that you westerners should stop accusing Indonesia of committing Human Rights violation. Even if those allegations are true which isn't the case. It would not only be Indonesia's own fault because your military trained us too. You can't fully blame it on us when you have a part in it.
@YLKVT.679The Free Papua Movement are like HAMAS they terrorise the local people, accused them of supporting the law enforcers and they murdered them in cold blood. Let me remind you that the locals do not share these freedom ideas. All they want is to have a peaceful life so they could work and gain income to buy foods or simply provide for their family.
