More Police Posts, Safer Communities

The Solomon Islands is facing a growing challenge with crime, violence, theft, domestic violence, youth-related offences and other forms of lawlessness. When communities are far from a police station, it can take too long for help to arrive when people are in danger.

We need to seriously consider the establishment of more police posts in communities across the country, particularly in areas experiencing population growth and increasing security concerns.

A police post is more than just a building. It can provide:

🔹 A quicker response when crime occurs
🔹 Greater protection for women, children and vulnerable people
🔹 A visible presence that can help deter crime
🔹 Better communication between police and local communities
🔹 Greater confidence for people to report offences
🔹 Support for peaceful and orderly communities

But policing alone cannot solve everything. Families, churches, schools, chiefs, communities, young people and government agencies all have a role to play. We must address the causes of crime while also ensuring that our police have the presence, resources and support needed to protect the public.

Our people deserve to feel safe in their homes, villages, communities, workplaces and on the roads.

Prevention is better than waiting for tragedy to happen.

Let us invest not only in roads, schools and infrastructure, but also in community safety and law enforcement presence.

More police posts, better community policing, stronger partnerships and early intervention can help build safer communities for everyone.

A safe Solomon Islands is a responsibility we all share. 🇸🇧

WE NEED GODLY LEADERS

Our national motto says:

“TO LEAD IS TO SERVE.”

I believe this is a powerful principle. But we should also look at it from the other direction:

“TO SERVE IS TO LEAD.”

These two principles complement each other. “To Lead Is to Serve” tells us what leadership should look like, while “To Serve Is to Lead” reminds us that genuine leadership must be demonstrated through service.

The Bible gives us powerful examples: Joseph served before governing Egypt. Moses served before leading Israel. David served as a shepherd before becoming king. And Jesus demonstrated the ultimate example of servant leadership.

Leadership is not simply about position, title or power. It is about character, humility, integrity, responsibility and service.

WE NEED SERVANT LEADERS. WE NEED GODLY LEADERS.

Leaders who fear God and value people.
Leaders who serve rather than exploit.
Leaders who choose integrity over personal gain.
Leaders who use authority responsibly and remain accountable.

As citizens, we also have a responsibility:

Ask questions. Check the facts. Participate. Protect public resources. Speak up respectfully. Hold leaders accountable through lawful and democratic means. And serve our communities.

Let us not simply ask, “Who will lead us?”

Let us ask:

“Who has demonstrated the character and willingness to serve?”

Our national motto gives us the principle:

TO LEAD IS TO SERVE.

Our civic challenge is to live it:

TO SERVE IS TO LEAD.

And our faith reminds us that leadership is ultimately stewardship before God.

SOLOMON ISLANDS NEEDS LEADERS WHO WILL SERVE WITH HUMILITY, LEAD WITH INTEGRITY, AND GOVERN WITH A HEART THAT HONOURS GOD AND VALUES THE PEOPLE.

LET US PRAY.

Lord God, we commit Solomon Islands into Your hands. Give us leaders who seek wisdom rather than power, integrity rather than personal gain, and service rather than privilege. Give our citizens courage to speak truth, wisdom to choose responsibly, and humility to serve one another.

🇸🇧 AN APPEAL TO ALL SOLOMON ISLANDERS — LET US STAND UNITED 🇸🇧

Before we judge, condemn, or take sides, let us seek the proper information and understand the full picture.

We may have different political views, but we share one country, one future, and one responsibility to protect the peace and unity of Solomon Islands.

At times like this, emotions can divide us and rumours can create unnecessary tension. Let us not allow political differences to turn Solomon Islanders against one another.

Ask questions. Seek the facts. Demand transparency. Listen to all sides. Hold our leaders accountable—but do so peacefully, respectfully, and responsibly.

Let us challenge decisions without attacking each other. Let us disagree without becoming enemies. And let us remember that no political issue is bigger than the unity and peace of our nation.

Our strength is not in division. Our strength is in standing together as Solomon Islanders. 🇸🇧

Look before you leap. Know before you judge. Seek the truth before you take a side.

One people. One nation. One Solomon Islands. 🇸🇧

CHANGE IS COMING — LET COMMON SENSE HAVE A CHANCE

When our Saviour Jesus Christ walked on this earth, He brought a message of truth, transformation and change. But many among the Jewish leadership were not ready to accept that change. Jesus challenged their traditions, exposed hypocrisy and called people back to righteousness. Instead of accepting the truth and changing their ways, they sought to silence Him and ultimately put Him to death.

Change is painful. Change can be uncomfortable. But sometimes change is necessary for progress.

The same principle applies to Solomon Islands today.

Change is coming, but some of our leaders may not be ready to embrace it because genuine reform can challenge the status quo, disturb established interests and affect a life of comfort.

When someone calls for reform, it should not automatically be viewed as a threat. We should ask: Is this change good for our country? Will it strengthen our institutions? Will it create a better future for our children?

We cannot continue doing the same things and expect different results.

Solomon Islands needs a major paradigm shift—a change in the way we think, lead, govern and hold our leaders accountable.

We need to move beyond personalities, political interests and personal comfort. We need leaders who are prepared to make difficult decisions for the long-term good of the nation.

If Matthew Wale is raising important reforms, let us debate those ideas honestly and objectively—not reject them simply because they challenge the way things have always been done.

Our nation cannot remain stuck in the rut.

Let us change our mentality. Let us put the national interest before personal interest. Let us have the courage to question, the wisdom to listen and the humility to change when change is necessary.

Above all, let us give common sense a chance.

🇸🇧 Solomon Islands deserves better. Change should not frighten us when the purpose is to build a stronger nation.

🇸🇧 A TIME FOR RESPONSIBILITY, NOT POLITICAL RECKLESSNESS

This is truly an unfortunate situation, and the timing could not be worse for our beloved Solomon Islands.

Our Prime Minister was overseas representing our country at an important regional meeting with Pacific leaders. At a time when Solomon Islands should be strengthening its voice and relationships in the region, the sudden political turmoil at home has forced him to cut short his trip and return to face a political battle.

For me, this raises a serious question: Is this really the best way to serve the interests of our country?

If there are genuine concerns within the government or Cabinet, surely the better approach would have been to sit down, talk openly, seek understanding and find a solution in the interest of the nation. Resorting immediately to a Motion of No Confidence risks creating unnecessary instability and disrupting important national and regional responsibilities.

The timing is especially concerning. It gives the impression that political interests have been placed ahead of the broader interests and reputation of Solomon Islands.

Our leaders must remember that Solomon Islands is bigger than any individual politician, party or political ambition. Whatever our political differences may be, we should not allow them to damage our country's image abroad or undermine the confidence of our people.

Let us put Solomon Islands first. 🇸🇧

We need dialogue, maturity and unity—not political games that divide our nation.

May our leaders put aside personal interests and seek what is best for the future of our children and our country.

🇸🇧 ENOUGH IS ENOUGH — LET HOPE BLOOM 🇸🇧

A Cry from the Heart of a Solomon Islander

I am only one citizen
Of these beautiful Solomon Islands,
But tonight, my heart is heavy,
Because the hope I had begun to see
Seems suddenly covered by a cloud.

I saw a light shining in the distance.
I saw a flower beginning to bloom. 🌸
I felt the calm after a long storm.
I dared to believe that tomorrow
Could be better than yesterday.

I thought perhaps
Our prayers were finally being answered. 🙏

But suddenly—
A motion came,
And my heart was broken.

Enough is enough!

How long must we keep starting again?
How many times must hope be interrupted
Before it has a chance to grow?

Give GREAT a chance to change.
Give Matthew Wale an opportunity.
Let him lead.
Let him work.
Let him prove himself.
Let history judge the results.

A government cannot transform a nation overnight.
A seed cannot become a tree in one day.
A flower needs time to bloom. 🌱🌸

So before we pull it from the ground,
Before we destroy what has just begun,
Let us stop.

Let us put aside anger.
Let us put aside division.
Let us put our hands together,
And kneel down once again in prayer. 🙏

Pray for our Prime Minister.
Pray for our Parliament.
Pray for our leaders.
Pray for our families.
Pray for our children.
Pray for Solomon Islands.

Because this is bigger than politics.

This is our home. 🇸🇧
This is our future.
This is the nation we will leave
For the generation coming after us.

We may disagree.
We may have different political colours.
But surely we can agree on one thing:

Solomon Islands deserves a chance to move forward.

🇸🇧 Give GREAT a chance.
🇸🇧 Give Matthew Wale an opportunity.
🙏 Give hope a chance to bloom.
🙏 Give our nation a chance to heal.

And above everything else,
Let us put God first.

May God give wisdom to our leaders,
Peace to our Parliament,
Unity to our people,
And direction to our beloved nation.

Solomon Islands, do not lose hope.
Stand firm in faith.
Keep praying.
Keep beli

🇸🇧 A POLITICAL MOTION THAT RAISES SERIOUS QUESTIONS

Prime Minister Matthew Wale has demonstrated a very clear direction and vision for our country, and the GREAT Government has only just begun its journey.

For a no-confidence motion to emerge only three months into the new government raises serious questions. The timing smells fishy, and something does not seem right.

Nevertheless, we should allow the parliamentary process to take its course and ensure that any allegations are properly investigated and established through the appropriate legal and auditing processes.

Our people deserve stability, transparency, accountability, and a government that is given a fair opportunity to deliver on its promises.

Solomon Islands needs progress, not political games. 🇸🇧

Let Parliament do its duty, but let the interests of the people come first.
