I refer to Katie Fono's article inrespect to the above subject.

Let me remind you that if you claim Mr. Sasako's story contains elements of truth then please encourage him to follow and go through...

I have been following the exchanges in the paper. However, one thing has come out of it. Sasako has no proof to substantiate that Carol Edwards was the driver. What Sasako has is a mountain of allegations...

To simply standup and admit guilt by telling the truth is tough until someone is divinely inspired or paid to do so.

In the DPP-SASAKO war of words, people have oppossing arguements and feelings...

Much has been said and debated on the case of Carol Edwards but I think A. Sasako is doing a terrific job in digging and bringing to light what appeared to be suspicious and could amount to corruption...

Dear Editor,

I tend to believe that there is still some element of truth that needs to be revealed about the Ms Edward saga. If that is what Sasako is doing, then may I urge him to continue...

Dear Editor,

It is interesting that the PM highlights that solomon Islands must receive more benefit from Tuna harvesting, which exceeds SBD$29 billion annually.

Firstly, Tuna is...

There's much already said about this issue in the media. I think Sasako should help the family of the deceased to seek a retrial if he has fresh or credible evidence to pursue a retrial. We can say everything...

Its true that you do not need to be a lawyer to see the discrepancies in the much fought case against the DPP's competent. But there is a danger in doing that because you will not proceed further from...

At last, the DPP came out and responded to the indictments advocated by Mr. Sasako. Whether the position of the DPP is welcome or not is up to each individual to decide. Just like Tiger Wood's 'contested'...

Who owns the two media companies?

Just by looking at their websites, one will be lured to believe that they do have the same owner-their templetes says it all. But if I am correct they are...

Based on Robinson Harvey's explanation and the explanations given by the DPP himself, Sasako must be highly commended. I do not have to be a lawyer to realize the promptness at which the DPP quickly ruled...

Dear Editor,

Sasako's uprooting and publicising of the issue was an indeed a thumbs up for a freelance journo like him. I also commend him for a job well done.

However, for the sake...

The choice of submitting (re-opening) Carol Edward's case in court does not lie with Mr. Sasako. Instead that choice belongs to the family of the late deceased as well as the person wrongly convicted (as...

May you kindly spare me a space to jot down my comments on the above very sensitive issue. At times the nature of the human being is we usually want to prosecute those people who commits a mistake more...

There has been recently much praise given to the so-called investigative journalist, Mr. Sasako. What a laughing thing!

To readers of Solomon Times, please know that Sasako's articles have no...

Digging up the bad smelling debris through the media is one thing. Digging up the bad smelling debris in the courts should be the next course of action. And I am confident that Alfred's next step will...

Thanks Editor for permitting to comment.

Whilst looking and listening at our local TV One News last week I am 100% not convinced at DPP's interview with One News reporter.

I thought,...

When Solomon Star refaced its old news website with what they believed is a more user friendly one, it did spark some interesting discussions which somehow dragged with it some thoughtful followings on...

Thanks editor for allowing this space.

Marist performance in this O- league was very poor as we can see by evidence they didn't even win a single match. I heard Solomon Islands were a Soccer...

Having put some thought into the political context of our honorable house of representatives; coupled with public speculation and the peoples dissatisfaction with current parliament members; one can only...

Mr. Investigative journalist must be applauded for his untiring efforts in digging up the bad smelling debris emanating from our so-called trustworthy prosecutorial institution (DPP office). Your articles...

I'd rather write in the sand than throw a stone! Parallel to the biblical story of the olden days when women are being stoned to death when caught in any act of immorality, I may refrain from acts of murder...

Dear Editor,

Call them whatever you want, but the features and characteristics of the so-called political parties in this country amount to the behaviours of interest groups. All it take is...

Unfortunately, Solomon Islands has very little manpower that possess the requisite skills and expertise to ensure roads are built and maintained to withstand ongoing down pours and weather storms, especially...

It is interesting to read the views of Makirans and other Solomon Islands citizens sharing their ideas on this project, either for or against.

As a Makiran, just return from a long walk from...
