Description: | Now that Solomon Islanders' forests have been
depleted (Allen 2011; Bennett 2000) its mineral
resources are being seen as a potential base for the
economic development of the nation. However, in
assessing this prospect from a national economic
perspective Haque (2013) comes to the sobering
conclusion that ‘even if potential mining investment
was to be fully realised, favourable economic
outcomes for Solomon Islands are far from assured. |
