AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

UNGA Security & Drugs: Prime Minister Matthew Wale told the UN General Assembly that transnational crime networks use the Pacific as a “highway for illicit drugs,” and said Solomon Islands is amending its Dangerous Drugs Act, strengthening enforcement, and joining UNTOC to boost cooperation. Climate Pressure at the UN: Pacific leaders, including Wale and Environment Minister Wayne Ghemu, pushed for real emissions cuts and climate finance that reaches frontline communities, warning sea-level rise is already damaging livelihoods and infrastructure. Road Safety Capacity-Building: A 14-person Solomon Islands delegation is in Fiji on an Australia-supported study tour to improve vehicle licensing, traffic enforcement, road safety and road maintenance as an integrated system. Women’s Rights & UN Women: Minister John Maneniaru met UN Women in New York, backing a National Prevention Strategy to End Violence Against Women and Girls (2026–2038) for Cabinet submission in October. Police UXO Training Boost: The US handed RSIPF a new EOD training classroom at Hell’s Point to expand demining and explosive ordnance disposal training. Governance & Organised Crime: A senior police official called for a stronger whole-of-government approach to transnational organised crime, warning of gaps between laws and enforcement. Development on the Ground: Australia-backed community projects delivered new water supply and solar lighting in Kolombangara, plus a new Ruavatu Parish community hall in Guadalcanal. Regional Leadership: MASI congratulated journalist Elizabeth Osifelo on her election as Vice-President of the Pacific Islands News Association (PINA).
