AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Solomon Islands leadership shake-up: Matthew Wale was sworn in as prime minister after winning a tight parliamentary vote, and his new Cabinet is now in place—while the political drama also included a last-minute reversal of the dolphin export ban, which was then reinstated by Wale to protect fisheries standards and the tuna industry’s reputation. Aviation upgrade: Santa Cruz (Lata) New Terminal Building work has reached about 70% completion under the World Bank-backed SIRAP2 project, with major structural works done and fit-out and utilities underway. Renewable power push: SMEC has been appointed to oversee the Tina River transmission project, aiming to move hydropower into Honiara’s grid and cut reliance on imported diesel. Regional science & conservation: Malaysia renewed its marine conservation plan to 2030, and a new study shows whale sharks roam far across the Indo-Pacific—supporting calls for wider protection. STEM momentum: UNESCO says inclusive STEM education is key to tackling climate, health, and digital challenges.
