		However, it is sad to hear that Temotu Shipping management is practicing self-interest benefits, especially from the company’s funds.
		Temotu Shipping Company is owned by people of Temotu Province through 99% shares owned by Temotu Development and 1% share by the premier representing the Temotu Province.
		The current financial situation of the company had put itself in an awkward position, making it difficult to meet its financial obligations such as NPF members’ contributions, Income Tax, Sales Tax, Rentals, etc. Although revenues were collected from the number of trips during the year, yet the company claims there is insufficient funds available.

		Because Temotu is separated from its "parent" country, the Solomon Islands, by more than 350 km, it clearly meets the new criteria.
		Thus, the addition of the Temotu Islands to the DXCC List should be a rather routine affair.
		Altogether, the islands of Temotu have a surface area of only 926 sq km, although they are scattered over more than 150,000 sq km of the South Pacific.

	The Trireme Trust - Newsletter 16 - Pacific Boatbuilding
		Surely one of the oddest places for the trireme flag to fly is Kalua Bay on Taumako, in Temotu Province of the Solomon Islands.
		The answer to that question is a story that began in 1968 when Dr. David Lewis came to Temotu to study traditional Polynesian navigation with the late Basil Tevake, one of the greatest sailors of his generation.
		Because of their geographical and cultural situation, citizens of Temotu are always interested in canoes, and the "bigfella custom war canoe blong Greece" intrigued them (I should add that Duffs might be a fruitful recruiting site for future trireme trials).

		Reports from the headquarters of the former Solomon Islands most eastern province of Temotu, Lata, said the decision by the province to become a ‘State Government’ had strongly influenced by a number of factors.
		But the government problem was not only restricted to the new developments in Temotu Province and the falling apart of the cease-fire between the warring parties on Guadalcanal.

		Generally, my understanding is that, TSL is the business arm of Temotu Province, and as such, M.V Temotu, being a commercial undertaking of TSL, should be governed by its policy, should there be one in place.
		For a number of months and years now M.V Temotu has not been providing shipping services to the people of Temotu Province, strangely because what had transpired from TSL management was that the vessel was not in a sea worthy condition.
		It was alleged that two Temotu Provincial members have misappropriated several thousands of dollars from TSL in the name of advance payments.

		The Premier of Solomon Islands Temotu province says the cyclone-hit Tikopia and Anuta islands have had no communciation links for months and that the government's failure to ensure they do so may have cost the lives of many.
		Gabriel Taeo says the government's inaction in ensuring communication links to the north Temotu islands has isolated the 2,000 residents who bore the brunt of Cyclone Zoe with winds of up to 300 kph last weekend.
		The radio in Anuta has a battery that is not workable anymore and also Tikopia the radio is not working so when the cyclone struck there was no means of communication at all from the two islands....I suspect that there maybe some casualties.

	Solomon Islands: A logistical challenge
		Following surveys late last year to assess the needs of people displaced by fighting, ICRC staff last week carried out a relief distribution for some 1,000 families living in two provinces of the Solomon Islands: Temotu, about 700 kilometres east of the capital Honiara, and Rennell and Bellona to the south.
		To help displaced people regain their self-sufficiency, tarpaulins, jerrycans, fishing lines and hooks, seeds and agricultural tools were packaged into family kits and transported by ship to these isolated islands (the voyage to Temotu takes over 60 hours).
		The only way to get around the small island of Bellona is on foot or on a bicycle, and the only link with the outside world is by radio.
