I am clearly aware that I must make the argument not only in terms of preventing war and saving lives, but in terms of how we can fill the gap that would occur if we were to turn off the flow of money from China.
One of the reasons that China's Political Warfare is successful in so many arenas is that we are bribed to be complicit, and bribed to be silent.
The FSM says 'no', and our sovereignty is disrespected, with the PRC saying we have achieved a consensus when we have not.
Our Nation's broader foreign policy outlook--that we are a friend to all, and an enemy to none--is consistent with that of Solomon Islands.
