MPA for west Baegu/Fataleka, who also former premier of Malaita province, Daniel Suidani acknowledged the government of Japan for funding two vital and life-serving projects for his people.

They are; clinic and water projects, and signing for their implementation was done between Japanese embassy and committee representing ward 5 this week, in Honiara.

In an interview with Daniel Suidani, he acknowledged the people and government of Japan for generosity to fund the projects for his people.

“For decades, the people of west Fataleka were without clinic. All a long, they have been walking kilometres to the nearest clinic at Fauabu and Arao.

“The clinic will be a relief for my people. They will no longer walk faraway to access health care service and good water supply,” he said.

He expressed his gratitude to the government of Japan for being one of the traditional development partners of Solomon Islands.

The former premier noted that Japan has been supporting development in the country for long time.

“For Malaita province along, Japan has funded two major projects in the province. The Auki wharf and Auki market.

“Now, they are funding the improvement of Kilu’ufi hospital. The people of Malaita province greatly owed the people and government of Japan,” he said.

In the meantime, Suidani appealed to the people of ward 5 to offer whatever resources at their disposal toward accomplishing the projects.

“The projects are community-based projects and we must show our support by caring for them to implement in its 11-month timeframe,” he said.

Suidani also thanked the outgoing Japanese ambassador and his successor for ensuring the projects are approved and prioritized for his people.
