Member of Parliament for North West Guadalcanal Constituency, Jaimie Vokia, has called on his fellow MPs to establish a vision that embodies the future aspirations of their communities.

MP Vokia made this appeal during his address on the Sine Die motion in Parliament this year.

“As we look forward to the upcoming year, it is essential to develop a vision that aligns with our community’s aspirations,” Vokia stated.

He urged his colleagues to prioritize initiatives that foster sustainable development, environmental conservation, and economic resilience.

“By investing in our people and our land, we are laying the groundwork for a prosperous future,” remarked the Minister of Traditional Governance, Peace, and Ecclesiastical Affairs.

“Furthermore, we must dedicate ourselves to empowering our youth, who are the leaders of tomorrow,” he added.

Quoting Proverbs 22:6, Vokia said, “It is written that we should return home and, within our families and home environments, train a child in the way he should go.”

He emphasized that equipping the nation’s youth with the necessary skills and values to navigate the future will enable them to make meaningful contributions to society.
