Know What is Happening Around You

The press today is an army with carefully organized weapons, the journalists its officers, the readers its soldiers. But, as in every army, the soldier obeys blindly, and the war aims and operating plans change without his knowledge. The reader neither knows nor is supposed to know the purposes for which he is used and the role he is to play. There is no more appalling caricature of freedom of thought. Formerly no one was allowed to think freely; now it is permitted, but no one is capable of it any more. Now people want to think only what they are supposed to want to think, and this they consider freedom.

Solomon Islands will know its new Prime Minister on the 25th of August 2010 according to the declaration made by the Governor General Sir Frank Kabui yesterday.

In a statement made yesterday, Sir Kabui said the date for the Prime Minister’s election will on Wednesday 25th August, 2010 at the Chamber of the National Parliament at 9.30am.

The Statement said that, nomination will be delivered to the Governor-General, at the Government House on Tuesday, 17th August, 2010.

According to the statement the nomination for the Prime Minister will be close on Friday 20th 2010.

Meanwhile, the new Prime Minister will emerge from any of the two camps who are playing number game at the moment.

Both camps are claiming that they have the number to form the new government.

With the recent combination of the two groups now camping at the Honiara Hotel, it is very hard to speculate on who will be the candidates for the group.

However, the Heritage Park Group led by the Solomon Islands Democratic Party (SIDP) still has the confident to form the new government with their 30 member coalition.
