Dear Editor
As you will appreciate, we in Australia watch with concern the growing influence that the Chinese CCP has in the Soloman's. Recent news on the ABC in Australia reveals evidence of very large amounts of money paid by the CCP to Sogavare and his ministerial supporters. These are direct payments into private bank accounts. The purpose of these recent payments is to gain approval for China to buy land for the purpose of creating a deep water port.
Please see hyperlink below for details of evidence of these corrupt payments.
