Solomon Islands PM survives no confidence vote: parliament
HONIARA (AFP) - Embattled Solomon Islands Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare survived a no-confidence vote Monday, after accusing "Taiwan’s agents" of orchestrating recent political violence that plunged the Pacific island nation into crisis.
After a fiery day-long debate, parliament Speaker John Patteson Oti said the opposition’s move to oust Sogavare had been defeated by 32 votes to 15.
