Decentralisation and Central-Local Relations: A Solomon Islands Case Study on the Negotiations of Relations between National and Provincial Governments A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Philosophy in Development Studies at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Gloria Tapakea Suluia 2012 Abstract The literature on decentralisation and development emphasises the prominent role played by representatives of central government and representatives of local government in the negotiations of central-local relations. This thesis seeks to investigate this argument by examining the institutional framework between national and provincial governments and the negotiations taking place within a decentralised framework in the Solomon Islands context, focusing on government officials’ experiences. Drawing from a case study in the Malaita Province, the most important institutions and procedures for negotiating relations between the national and provincial governments are explored and the extent to which government officials utilise these structures. Furthermore, government officials shared their assessment of the most important institutions dealing with the negotiation of central-local relations. This was important to understand how decentralisation has affected central-local relations. This study which adopted a qualitative case study approach found that two institutions were established by the national government to undertake negotiations between the national and provincial governments within a decentralised framework. While these institutions do exist in theory, in practice they have not been fully utilised by national government officials, which undermined their ability to fulfil their mandate. -
WANSALAWARA Soundings in Melanesian History
WANSALAWARA Soundings in Melanesian History Introduced by BRIJ LAL Working Paper Series Pacific Islands Studies Program Centers for Asian and Pacific Studies University of Hawaii at Manoa EDITOR'S OOTE Brij Lal's introduction discusses both the history of the teaching of Pacific Islands history at the University of Hawaii and the origins and background of this particular working paper. Lal's comments on this working paper are quite complete and further elaboration is not warranted. Lal notes that in the fall semester of 1983, both he and David Hanlon were appointed to permanent positions in Pacific history in the Department of History. What Lal does not say is that this represented a monumental shift of priorities at this University. Previously, as Lal notes, Pacific history was taught by one individual and was deemed more or less unimportant. The sole representative maintained a constant struggle to keep Pacific history alive, but the battle was always uphill. The year 1983 was a major, if belated, turning point. Coinciding with a national recognition that the Pacific Islands could no longer be ignored, the Department of History appointed both Lal and Hanlon as assistant professors. The two have brought a new life to Pacific history at this university. New courses and seminars have been added, and both men have attracted a number of new students. The University of Hawaii is the only American university that devotes serious attention to Pacific history. Robert,C.

Project/Programme Proposal to the Adaptation Fund
PROJECT/PROGRAMME PROPOSAL TO THE ADAPTATION FUND PART I: PROJECT/PROGRAMME INFORMATION Project/Programme Category: Regular Country/ies: Solomon Islands Title of Project/Programme: Enhancing urban resilience to climate change impacts and natural disasters: Honiara Type of Implementing Entity: Multilateral Implementing Entity: United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) Executing Entities: - Honiara City Council (HCC) - Ministry of Lands, Housing and Survey (MLHS) - Ministry of the Environment, Climate Change, Disaster Management & Meteorology (MECDM); With scientific and training support from: - RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia Amount of Financing Requested: USD 4,395,877 Project / Programme Background and Context: International climate scientists have identified Small Island Developing States (SIDS) in the Pacific, such as the Solomon Islands, as being amongst the most vulnerable countries to the risks of future climate change. However, it is also important to recognize that the islands of Melanesia have historically been highly exposed to an array of extreme climate events driven by natural variability, as well as other natural hazards such as earthquakes and tsunamis. In the case of the Honiara - the capital city of the Solomon Islands - there is acute sensitivity to external shocks and stresses due to existing ‘adaptation deficits’ in urban infrastructure, housing and service provision. These deficits result from a range of development drivers; including rapid and unplanned urbanization, the associated growth of informal -

Registered at ths Gemara Peg Office, Sydney, for lir...lambda, Vol. 31, No. 7. Sydney, Monday, February 14, 1927 I y Post as a fiewspatiort WAITING ON US BY LEON A. SMITH Ages have lapsed since the divine commission, " Go, teach all men," from Jesus' lips had birth, Since first was uttered the inspired petition, " Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth," Yet still delays the day of its fruition, Still rests on earth the pall of moral night ; And multitudes, in sad and lost condition, Still sit in darkness, waiting for the light— Waiting on us. Heroes of faith, the holy men of old, Apostles, saints, and martyrs, who laid down Their lives, in toi and sacrifice untold, Ere this should have received the victor's crown. Not now are they in glory with their Lord, Though round their names a light immortal spreads ; But all oblivious of their rich reward, They still are sleeping in their dusty beds, Waiting on us. The Son of God, who at unmeasured cost Redeemed mankind, has not received His own ; Not now He rules o'er man's dominion lost, Not yet He sits a King on David's throne. The wounds of Calvary are still unhealed, And Heaven-defying sinners fill the land ; And looking on a remnant yet unsealed, The great Omnipotent withholds His hand, Waiting on us. Unfallen worlds, that circle farthest space, Are listening for the final burst of praise In God's unfinished symphony of grace, Telling the end of earth's discordant days. Seeking the hour when sin's destructive reign Shall be no more—the controversy done— While yet creation groans and sighs in pain, Earth, heaven, and all the universe are one, Waiting on us. -
