Last update: 9 hours ago

Loss and Damage at COP: Solomon Islands says COP27 must deliver a real decision on establishing a Loss and Damage funding arrangement, calling it a “red line” issue as negotiations in Sharm El-Sheikh remain unclear. Pacific Islands Forum in Palau: Leaders head to the 55th PIF Leaders Meeting with a tougher agenda shaped by geopolitics, transnational crime, and economic pressure, while Taiwan’s return after being barred in 2025 sparks renewed China objections. U.S.-Taiwan stance: The U.S. backs Taiwan’s continued participation in PIF, framing it as a long-time development partner for prosperity and economic development. SME finance boost: Government and CBSI have reopened the SME Credit Guarantee Scheme, with $18m committed to help MSMEs access loans by reducing risk for banks. Mining law pressure: Guadalcanal’s Gold Ridge landowners warn they need more time over proposed Mineral Resources Bill amendments, including major changes to state participation and mining licences. Agriculture and jobs: SIART support is helping Gold Ridge women expand poultry production, while World Bank-backed farming projects and biosecurity planning also move forward. Media freedom concerns: Transparency Solomon Islands and OCCRP condemn police questioning and searches tied to an Inland Revenue audit linked to alleged tax discrepancies.
