A member of the Solomon Islands Parliament has expressed concern over his ruling coalition government’s decision to criticize him for traveling to Taiwan to attend a recent summit.
Peter Kenilorea Jr., a Solomon Islands United Party member, was among 49 politicians from 24 countries who participated in a summit in Taiwan’s capital Taipei last month. The summit was organized by the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China (IPAC), a group of more than 200 lawmakers from 40 countries who believe that coordinated responses are needed to confront the Chinese regime’s malign activities. Kenilorea is a co-chair of the alliance.
