After the nationwide address made by prime minister Mr. Sogavare yesterday, confirming six Solomon Islands students tested positive for COVID 19.

The Chairman, Secretary & Committee members of Philippines students parents committee appealed to parents/guardians in Honiara, Solomon Islands. That an important meeting will convene at 4pm this afternoon.

“There will be a meeting for all of us to meet and update us of the news received yesterday and the venue is to be confirmed later.” Posted Mr. Rex Maehia on YTTF facebook page.

This meeting is to put together first hand information collected from students and to assist the government to safely repatriate them back into the country.

Fobo media understands that, there was a submission made on April to the government, to quickly repatriate the students back before the situation gets worse, but unfortunately it was delayed.

Mr. Rex Maehui further stressed that, “what we feared has now happened and I know this number of positive cases will increase, after all 400 + students are tested.” Despite this, let us assist the government to return our children safely to us.

The outcome of the meeting will be made available sometimes this evening.
