Australia's High Commissioner to Solomon Islands Peter Hooton today presented his credentials to Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare after waiting to be received for almost two months.The Prime Minister however said today's ceremony was an important milestone in mending the two countries' strained relations. Mr Sogavare said it was a very important gesture by the Solomon Islands government, and he urged Mr Hooton to take it as a gesture of goodwill.He told a gathering of members of the Cabinet and local journalists that relations between Solomon Islands and Australia have come under a lot of pressure because of misunderstanding.The Prime Minister said issues before the two countries demand solutions and, problems are problems unless they have solutions.He said it is only appropriate to have Mr Hooton on the ground to address those issues with both governments." I made it very clear to his excellency that Australia and Solomon Islands are very close neighbours. Australia plays a very important role in regional security and stability. Very heavily involved in development of regional countries and its position in the region is very clear to us. And for that reason it is important that we mend this relation. I would like to announce that what happened this afternoon is a giant step forward taken by Solomon Islands government to start to seriously address those issues we have on the ground. On behalf of Solomon islands government, people of Solomon islands, belated though it may be, High Commissioner, welcome to Solomon islands and lets move on."Meanwhile, Mr Hooton said he was honoured and warmly welcomed the opportunity to present his letter of introduction from Prime Minister John Howard Mr Sogavare, introducing Mr Hooton as High Commissioner to the country.Mr Hooton said he came to Honiara both as the representative of the Australian government and a friend of Solomon Islands.He said he hopes to get to know Solomon Islands more better, and to be an effective and helpful Australian representative in the country." I do not under estimate the range and complexities of some of the issues that confront us. But I believe with the necessary spirit of goodwill and dialogue that I know we can establish, these issues are very capable of resolution and some of them I would hope quite quickly. And I look forward to work closely with the Prime Minister and members of his team, with the public service and others in Solomon Islands to address some of those issues."
