East Choiseul MP, Manasseh Sogavare has praised the NCRA Government’s decision to establish a national presence in Indonesia saying it is a strategic move that should be welcomed.
Also, the Chairman of the Bills and Legislation Committee, Mr Sogavare said in addition to furthering Solomon Islands economic interest, the move should facilitate active engagement with Jakarta on the issue of West Papua.
In relation to the West Papua issue, the East Choiseul MP described it as “one of the worst human rights blunders in the 20th and 21st centuries”.
