OUR Party Reject Foreign Control, Domination & Manipulation

Sogavare led party; OUR Party was not in the position to accommodate all forms of foreign control, domination and manipulation.

OUR Party Interim President Honorable Manasseh Sogavare says these during the launching of the party’s 2010 election campaign on Thursday morning.

He said it is now time that Solomon Islanders should take full control of their destiny and must actively involved in the process of governance and participation in development.

“We believe that the economic and political control of Solomon Islands must rest with the people of Solomon Islands. We further believe that the process to return that control must be set in motion now within the spirit of tolerance and respect for those who are here to genuinely help us otherwise we will become foreigners in our own country.”

He said the country’s leadership role was destroyed by self-serving leaders who have give way to foreign interests and have no concern for the fragile economy and prosperity of the country.

“We believe that Solomon Islands must no longer be used as haven for legalized abuse of aid money through the implementation of multi-million dollars consultation based aid program on our soil which has done very little to pull the country out of our status as least developed country over the last thirty years.”

He said Solomon Islands needs a parliament that is genuinely have concern for it people and not one that pretends to do so but is actively involved in pursuing foreign interests in the excuse of maintaining good relationship and not one that is led by the nose as puppet
