Downloaded from pnz.sagepub.com at Australian National University on March 28, 2013 THE IMPACT OF RAMSI ON THE 2006 ELECTIONS IN THE SOLOMON ISLANDS JON FRAENKEL Abstract: The Solomon Islands election of April 2006 was the first since the Regional Assistance Mission to the Solomon Islands arrived in mid-2003. In its aftermath, riots in Honiara resulted in the destruction of much of Chinatown, the worst incident of civil disorder since the commencement of the Australian-led operation in July 2003. This article examines the election outcomes, and the preceding, largely neglected, impact of RAMSI on the shifting balance between the incumbent Kemakeza government and the opposition. It looks at how and why Snyder Rini’s government emerged victorious on April th18 2006, and why it collapsed eight days later. In conclusion, the article revisits debates about the causes of the Honiara riots, contesting some of the more far-fetched conspiracy theories and emphasising instead the depth of Solomon Islander reaction against a deeply flawed premiership selection process.

  • China and Taiwan in the South Pacific: Diplomatic Chess Versus Pacific Political Rugby
    CSCSD Occasional Paper Number 1, May 2007 China and Taiwan in the South Pacific: Diplomatic Chess versus Pacific Political Rugby Graeme Dobell1 Rioters in Solomon Islands chant “waku”—meaning Asian or Chinese—as they burn Chinatown. A pro-democracy rally in Tonga turns into a rage of arson and looting, and the main targets are Chinese shops and stores. After the coup in Fiji, the new military government says it can do without Australia’s help, because it can turn to China for support. Australia’s Prime Minister muses about the “evil” stalking the South Pacific. In 2006, the new Chinese diaspora in the South Pacific smelt the smoke of burning buildings and the China–Taiwan diplomatic tango was a dance through flames. The destruction that Solomon Islanders inflicted on Honiara in April had an echo in what Tongans wrought on Nuku’alofa in November. The recurrence of chaos in Melanesian Honiara and the astounding breakdown in the normal order of Polynesian Tonga had different local causes. The one common element was the way that Chinese businesses became targets. Chinese-owned shops and stores were torched because of the impact of the growing Chinese population across the South Pacific. But there is a diplomatic and geopolitical dimension to the disasters in Solomon Islands and Tonga – the desperate contest for diplomatic recognition between China and Taiwan. Taiwan has become a player in the domestic politics of Solomon Islands as Taipei fights to retain diplomatic recognition. Tonga recognises China. But the closeness of some members of Tonga’s royal family to China meant that attacking Chinese businesses in Nuku’alofa was a way of sending a message to those at the head of a medieval political system.

  • Unbounded Politics in the Solomon Islands: Leadership and Party Alignments
    UNBOUNDED POLITICS IN THE SOLOMON ISLANDS: LEADERSHIP AND PARTY ALIGNMENTS Jeffrey S. Steeves University of Saskatchewan The Melanesian countries of the Southwest Pacific--Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and the Republic of Vanuatu--have remained committed to an open, competitive democratic political process since achieving indepen- dence. Unlike former colonies in Africa that preceded them in decolonization, these states have held regular national elections that have seen the defeat of governments and the turnover of national leaders. In addition, the use of no- confidence motions has added another dynamic element to the political pro- cess. However, the Melanesian cultural setting has modified the inherited Westminster model of government. The political process has featured a weak party system, a central role for independent MPs, and shifting coalitions to con- struct new governments. This Melanesian variant can be termed an “un- bounded model” of politics. The Solomon Islands is utilized here as an example of this important Melanesian adaptation. AN INTENSE DEBATE HAS EMERGED among scholars over the potential for democratic transition among Third World countries. The movement for democracy that began in the Philippines with “people power” has become a second revolution. In Asia, Latin America, and Africa, regime change is under way in the wake of external and popular pressures for reform. The transition to democracy has in some cases been complete, with the introduc- tion of a fully competitive political process, while in other countries only partial success has been achieved. Within the scholarly literature, attention has been directed to the preconditions for democracy, the requisites for a successful transition, the configurations of competing societal interests and forces, and the processes of resolving conflict between pro- and antidemoc- Pacific Studies, Vol.
