Hon. Rick Hou Meets Malaita Premier

The SMC Office has issued a statement that the Member of Parliament for Small Malaita Constituency, Hon. Rick Hou had met with the premier of Malaita Province during his constituency tour last month. The statement said the meeting was not only as a courtesy call on the Premier but most importantly to discuss the major development projects in Malaita Province and more especially those projects that have been earmarked for the southern region, including Small Malaita.

The statement confirmed that there were a number of major development projects earmarked for the southern region which include the Afio Regional Hospital, the Parasi Airport, Police Station and Court House just to name a few. The statement highlighted that in the past, the southern region has been left out in terms of development at the provincial level, thanks to the active involvement of the Member of Parliament for Small Malaita constituency and the Premier for Malaita Province for their support.

In a statement, the SMC office said that this is not the first time for both leaders to have dialogue. The statement said that they have been doing this over the past years since they came into power. Both leaders have expressed strong collaboration on these projects and to continue cooperation in the future. This good relationship that was established between the two leaders for the development of the Southern Region has resulted in some of the major development projects already progressing well.
