Coalition Party Leaders
A Coalition Agreement was today signed by leaders of four political parties to form the next government.
The four political parties consist of the three parties that make up CARE with the Solomon Islands United Party (SIUP).
The agreement was signed by the SIUP wing leader Hon Peter Kenilorea, SIDP wing leader Hon Matthew Wale, DAP wing leader Hon Rick Houenipwela and U4C wing leader Daniel Waneoroa.
The signing was done at the Heritage Park Hotel today.
A statement from the Group said the signing is a commitment made by the Party Leaders in response to the cries of the people in this country for a change in government and leadership for Solomon Islands.
“Our Group is responding to the cries and wishes of our people to take back Solomon Islands and to bring back confidence in the leadership and the governing of our country,” the statement said.
The Group said it is a show of solidarity and commitment for real and meaningful change.
“We appeal to all newly elected independent MPs voted on a mandate for change to join us. Let us take back Solomon Islands,” the statement said.
CARE commands a total of 13 MPs whilst SIUP has seven MPs totaling 20 MPs altogether.
