While the last eight months have been hard for both MPs and voters, MP for East Honiara Morris To’iraena has assured his people of East Honiara of a positive start for the constituency.
Speaking on the floor of parliament during the Sine die motion in 2024, Mr To’iraena said that 168 of his people who have been struggling with their land titles will finally receive them this year.
“To you the 168 who have been struggling with your land title, today I want to assure you, that it turns positive. And I thank the Minister of Lands for assuring us that, you would be granted your land titles,” he said.
He assured his constituents that those who have similar problems to submit their list to the constituency office
“From there we will start to assist you,” he said.
He also said that the Constituency office is waiting for the people of the East Honiara constituency to assist three communities in operating corporate societies.
“We look forward to the three communities to run corporate societies. We are waiting to see if anyone shows interest. But none responded to date. I want to encourage you,” he said.
He voiced that although East Honiara has a huge population there is no availability of land to operate bigger businesses.
“In terms of corporate society, three are ready. Any ready community, you come forward so we kick-started with you,” said To’iraena.
He stressed that nine churches in East Honiara should have already received their church support and few had received it before Christmas last month.
He said that other communities will also assist with the same support to build their community churches as of this year and onwards.
He also highlighted that a few communities have also received support towards their Christmas tournament from the East Honiara Constituency office.
