THE POWERHOUSE IS GOING PLACES!

The Choiseul PowerHouse is “powering ahead” in Cyberspace with the speed of light. Some claim we are hard-hitting and controversial; some claim we are intellectual and academic! Some even claim we are political! Everybody is right! We are all of those things! We have a diverse global audience and it is our pleasure to stimulate your intellectual taste buds and we make no apologies for that. The bottomline is we are independent and have no affinity to any organisation: political or otherwise! We will continue to publish our "power articles"

We wish to extend special thanks to followers for their support. We also encourage you to post your comments and feedback on the Blog using the comments link following the Articles.

MORE HEADACHES FOR THE FISHERMEN

About a month ago, DBS reported that the parliamentary representative for Choiseul had finally remedied the silting problem at the Choiseul Fisheries. The interpretation by many listeners, especially Choiseulians was that this perennial sand problem at the fisheries complex was "gone for good".

But hardly a month has gone by and the problem has worsened and the fisherman are back to "square one".


All the boats are back on the shore again
The "mound of sand" at the entrance of the pond is back again, perhaps more conspicuous than ever before

Naturally, the pond is empty again

This promontory only added insult to injury. It has accelerated the accumulation of silt in the pond

The silting problem is a lot bigger than we think!

Meanwhile help on its way from Kent Adonaie who promised to contract the services of an excavator to help clear the entrance to the pond. Thank you Kent for helping us and may God bless you!

Meanwhile, Choiseulians are curious about the excavator donated to Choiseul by the Japanese to help the fisherman in that regard. They want to know the whereabouts of it. 

After all, a gift to the natives is not a gift to the district rep.
