Solomons PM Sogavare and his delegation return home from Taiwan trip today

Solomon Islands Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare and his delegation will return home today after a two-week state visit to the Republic of China or Taiwan.

While in Taiwan, Prime Minister Sogavare was awarded one of Taiwan's highest honorary awards, the Star of Taiwan.

The Prime Minister's 10 member delegation included two crown Ministers and their wives.

The country was almost left in suspension without information about what the Prime Minister had been doing in Taiwan for the entire duration of the two-week visit.

However, it is understood one of the key area he had raised with the Taiwanese Government officials is the possibility of recruiting unskilled labour from Solomon Islands to work in Taiwan.
