HONIARA, Solomon Islands (Solomon Star, Mar. 29) - Local leaders in the northern Solomon Islands region of Malaita are calling on the government and RAMSI [Regional Assistance Mission Solomon Islands] to establish the root cause of the recent ethnic crisis.
The local chiefs raised the issue during an hour with the RAMSI delegation, which visited Maluú on Friday to hear some of the concerns and views of the local leaders about RAMSI and its work in the country since their arrival in 2003.
Most of the chiefs have appreciated the work of RAMSI since their arrival in the country with the arrest of those who are involved in the 1998 to 2003 crises that nearly got the country cripple financially.
