By Jimmy Nolan The Guadalcanal Provincial Government’s Culture and Tourism Division will host a four-day Weaving Festival from Friday, 31 July to Monday, 3 August 2026, at the SINU FOPA Panatina Lower Campus. The event will bring together talented traditional weavers from across the province to showcase their skills and cultural heritage. Speaking to SIBC News, Head of the Culture and Tourism Division, Jacinta Vagha, said the Weaving Festival will coincide with Guadalcanal Province’s Second Appointed Day, which will be celebrated on Monday, 3 August 2026. “The Weaving Festival was first introduced in 2017 as an annual event but had been suspended in recent years. “This year, we are bringing it back, and it will coincide with Guadalcanal Province’s Second Appointed Day celebrations on 3 August. “We have already set up a mini cultural village at the venue, where activities will take place throughout the four-day festival,” she said. Ms Vagha said the festival aims to promote the province’s unique traditional weaving practices while encouraging young people to learn and preserve these skills for future generations. “There will be a weaving competition for both young and experienced weavers, as well as free weaving workshops for children and young people to learn traditional weaving,” she said. “Our main goal is to showcase the skills and talents of Guadalcanal’s local weavers while passing this important cultural knowledge on to the next generation.” Ms Vagha is encouraging people from Guadalcanal and Honiara to visit the cultural village during the four-day festival to experience the province’s traditional weaving and cultural heritage.

BY JOSES SAREN Diplomats from New Zealand, Japan, Great Britain, and the United States gathered in Tulagi on Tuesday, July 28 for the official opening of the Nambawan Haus Museum. They reflected on a complex shared history while looking towards future Pacific partnership and peace. Speaking on behalf of Japanese Ambassador Higuchi Keiichi, Consul Katsumasa Maruo described the venue as “more than a museum”. He highlighted its potential as a hub for education, research, and sustainable tourism. Reflecting on the 1942 Battle of Tulagi and Gavutu-Tanambogo, Maruo noted that nearly 1,100 Japanese soldiers and about 120 American soldiers were killed. He suggested that Tulagi’s history as a point of convergence for global powers gave it the character of an “international city”. He framed the museum as a testament to reconciliation and peace. “We all should make efforts to keep peace... and pass over peace to the future generations,” he urged. British High Commissioner HE Paul Turner described the historical layers of the museum site as that of an onion. He added that the building represents a new chapter looking forward. Quoting author Orhan Pamuk, Turner said, “Museums are living spaces where objects become stories, stories become memories, and memories become part of who we are.” He acknowledged that while the UK–Solomon Islands relationship spans over a century, it also includes “the harsh realities of the colonial era”. Turner emphasised that while the restored building preserves memory of the British Protectorate period, the future and story of the museum firmly belongs to the Solomons people and the Gela community. US Chargé d’Affaires Daniel O’Hara framed the opening through a biblical reflection on memory. Quoting Joshua 4:6–7, he described the museum as a memorial to the people. O’Hara noted that the wartime defense of Tulagi’s harbor demonstrated that “some ground is worth defending, that sovereignty is worth protecting.” He emphasised that this principle remains just as vital across the Pacific today as it was eight decades ago. New Zealand High Commissioner HE Jonathan Curr highlighted the deep cultural and historical ties between the nations. He emphasised that storytelling lies at the heart of both Solomon Islands culture and Māori tradition in Aotearoa New Zealand. “Through stories, we remember who we are, where we come from, the events that shaped us, and the responsibilities we carry for future generations,” Curr said. He noted New Zealand’s special connection to the surrounding waters, pointing to the nearby wreck of HMNZS Moa, a Royal New Zealand Navy minesweeper sunk in combat in April 1943. Curr praised the collaborative international effort to preserve this history. He also acknowledged the vital contributions of New Zealand volunteer Nat Dixon, who worked with local authorities and elders to curate the exhibition.

作者:乔斯·萨伦 来自新西兰、日本、英国和美国的外交官于7月28日星期二在图拉吉聚集,参加南巴湾博物馆(Nambawan Haus Museum)的正式开幕式。 他们在展望未来太平洋伙伴关系与和平的同时,回顾了复杂的共同历史。 日本大使馆代表、领事丸尾胜正(Katsumasa Maruo)在发言中将该场所形容为“不仅仅是一个博物馆”。 他强调了其作为教育、研究和可持续旅游中心的潜力。 在回顾1942年图拉吉和加武图-塔南博戈战役时,丸尾提到近1100名日本士兵和约120名美国士兵在战斗中丧生。 他指出,图拉吉作为全球大国交汇点的历史赋予了其“国际城市”的特征。 他将博物馆框架为和解与和平的见证。 “我们都应该努力保持和平......并将和平传递给未来的世代,”他呼吁道。 英国高级专员保罗·特纳(HE Paul Turner)将博物馆遗址的历史层面比作洋葱。 他补充道,这座建筑代表着一个面向未来的新篇章。 引用作家奥尔罕·帕慕克(Orhan Pamuk),特纳表示:“博物馆是活的空间,物品变成故事,故事变成记忆,记忆成为我们的一部分。” 他承认,尽管英-所关系已有一个多世纪,但它也包括“殖民时代的严酷现实”。 特纳强调,虽然修复后的建筑保留了英国保护国时期的记忆,但博物馆的未来和故事坚定地属于所罗门人民和盖拉社区。 美国驻所罗门群岛临时代办丹尼尔·奥哈拉(Daniel O’Hara)通过对记忆的圣经反思来框架开幕式。引用约书亚记4:6-7,他将博物馆描述为人民的纪念碑。奥哈拉指出,图拉吉港口的战争防御表明“某些土地是值得捍卫的,主权是值得保护的。”他强调,这一原则在今天的太平洋依然至关重要,正如八十年前一样。 新西兰高级专员乔纳森·卡尔(HE Jonathan Curr)强调了各国之间深厚的文化和历史联系。他指出,讲故事是所罗门群岛文化和新西兰奥特亚罗瓦(Aotearoa New Zealand)毛利传统的核心。 “通过故事,我们记住了我们是谁,我们来自哪里,塑造我们的事件,以及我们对未来世代的责任,”卡尔说。 他提到新西兰与周边水域的特殊联系,指向1943年4月在战斗中沉没的皇家新西兰海军扫雷舰HMNZS Moa的附近残骸。 卡尔赞扬了国际合作努力以保护这一历史。他还认可了新西兰志愿者纳特·迪克森(Nat Dixon)的重要贡献,他与当地当局和长者合作策划了展览。 照片来源:乔斯·萨伦 反馈请联系:josessaren@gmail.com 编辑:irwin3angiki@gmail.com
BY JOSES SAREN The Nambawan Haus Museum’s exhibitions in Central Islands place Tulagi’s history at the centre of the Solomon Islands’ national story, tracing more than 2,500 years of Central Islands history from first settlement through European contact, colonial administration and the Second World War. In his keynote address at the official opening of the museum on Tuesday this week, Minister for Culture and Tourism (MCT) James Bonunga said Tulagi’s role as the former administrative capital of the British Solomon Islands Protectorate, and its place in the Pacific theatre of the Second World War, deserves permanent recognition. He said many of the decisions that shaped the country today were made on the island, and that the relics, stories and memories from that period remain an important chapter of Solomon Islands history. Bonunga said the museum also honours the sacrifices of those who lived through the war. He added that Tulagi and neighbouring islands witnessed some of the Pacific’s most significant military operations, and the site continues to hold international interest as one of the region’s recognised World War Two heritage locations. The museum’s exhibition traces this history through dedicated galleries, including an Early Contact room chronicling the arrival of explorer Álvaro de Mendaña and later, whalers and traders, a British Colonial Room documenting the establishment of the Protectorate under Resident Commissioner Woodford, and a dedicated WWII Zone. A panel marking the 3 May 1942 Japanese invasion of Tulagi details how occupying forces rebuilt a damaged seaplane base on nearby Tanambogo Island and constructed an airstrip on Guadalcanal later named Henderson Field — now the site of Honiara’s international airport. Bonunga said long before foreign contact, Gela was a centre of traditional leadership, navigation and cultural exchange, and that the museum’s stories of Kula trade and community life preserve knowledge that continues to shape the identity of Central Islands people today. “History shapes our identity. History teaches resilience. History guides our future,” Bonunga said. Photo credit: Joses Saren For feedback, contact: josessaren@gmail.com Editor: irwin3angiki@gmail.com
作者:乔斯·萨伦 南巴万豪斯博物馆在中央群岛的展览将图拉吉的历史置于所罗门群岛国家故事的中心,追溯了超过2500年的中央群岛历史,从首次定居到欧洲接触、殖民管理以及第二次世界大战。 在本周二博物馆的正式开幕式上,文化与旅游部(MCT)部长詹姆斯·博努加表示,图拉吉作为英国所罗门群岛保护国的前行政首都,以及在第二次世界大战太平洋战场中的地位,值得永久认可。 他说,塑造今天国家的许多决策都是在这个岛上做出的,那段时期的遗物、故事和记忆仍然是所罗门群岛历史的重要篇章。 博努加表示,博物馆还向那些经历战争的人们的牺牲致敬。 他补充说,图拉吉和邻近岛屿见证了太平洋一些最重要的军事行动,该地点仍然作为该地区公认的二战遗产地之一,持续吸引国际关注。 博物馆的展览通过专门的画廊追溯这一历史,包括一个早期接触室,记录了探险家阿尔瓦罗·德·门丹亚的到来,以及后来的捕鲸者和商人,一个英国殖民室,记录了在驻地专员Woodford的领导下建立保护国的过程,还有一个专门的二战区域。 一个标记1942年5月3日日本入侵图拉吉的面板详细说明了占领军如何在附近的塔南博戈岛重建受损的水上飞机基地,并在瓜达尔卡纳尔岛上修建了一条后来被命名为亨德森机场的跑道——现在是霍尼亚拉国际机场的所在地。 博努加表示,在外国接触之前,盖拉是传统领导、航海和文化交流的中心,博物馆关于库拉贸易和社区生活的故事保存了继续塑造中央群岛人民身份的知识。 “历史塑造我们的身份。历史教会我们韧性。历史指引我们的未来,”博努加说。 照片来源:乔斯·萨伦 反馈请联系:josessaren@gmail.com 编辑:irwin3angiki@gmail.com
BY JOSES SAREN The Nambawan Haus Museum has been officially opened in Tulagi, Central Islands Province. Prime Minister Matthew Wale cut the ribbon on the Nambawan Haus Museum yesterday officially opening what organisers describe as the country’s flagship heritage tourism site. Standing with the Prime Minister for the ribbon-cutting were Premier of Central Islands Province Kenneth Sagupari and Minister for Culture and Tourism (MCT) James Bonunga. The ceremony, held under the theme “Preserving Our Past, Inspiring Our Future” drew hundreds of guests including chiefs and elders of Nggella, staff and students of Woodford International School and King George VI school, representatives of Solomon Islands National University, and diplomatic and defence officials from New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States and Japan.

The formal programme opened with the national anthem and the raising of three flags — the Solomon Islands, Central Islands Province and Union Jack — by Central Islands Provincial police, followed by an opening prayer and blessing of the exhibition led by Rt Rev Steven Koete. The Solomon Islands, Central Islands Province and Union Jack flags fly together over the museum grounds, with the Tulagi coastline visible beyond. Photo by Joses Saren According to welcome remarks by Permanent Secretary for the Ministry of Culture and Tourism Bunyan Sivoro, the museum’s origins trace back to 2013, when Dr Paul Roughan and his team began researching the original residence of Charles Morris Woodford, the first Resident Commissioner of the British Solomon Islands Protectorate, with a view to reconstructing it as a museum on its original site. The exhibition fit-out, delivered by Millicent Design, was handed over last year, with the building itself completed earlier. In his keynote address, Minister Bonunga said the museum represents the government’s commitment to reform, empowerment, accountability and transformation, and framed heritage as a foundation for sustainable national development.

Turner said Woodford had been dedicated to the islands. US Chargé d’Affaires Dan O’Hara also delivered remarks, while a representative of the Japanese Embassy spoke in place of Ambassador Keiichi Higuchi. Organisers said the next phase of work will focus on improving road access to Tulagi’s heritage sites, expanding the museum’s exhibitions, and developing a National Museum Strategy in partnership with the Central Islands Provincial Government.

BY TONY IROGA The long-awaited Nambawan Haus Museum in Tulagi will officially open on July 28, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism (MCT) says. The museum is a joint project between MCT and the Central Islands Provincial Government. It will become the country’s second museum and a place to preserve the history and culture of Central Islands Province. Prime Minister Matthew Wale is expected to officiate at the opening ceremony. He will be joined by Central Islands Premier Kenneth Sagupari, members of the provincial assembly, senior government officials and development partners. The Ministry said the museum is more than just a heritage building. “It will serve as a centre for education, research and cultural exchange while protecting the province’s history, traditions and identity for future generations,” the Ministry said. The museum is located on a hill overlooking Tulagi Harbour and Iron Bottom Sound. It is housed in the restored former residence of Charles Woodford, the British Resident Commissioner during the colonial period. The building was officially handed over to the Ministry and the Central Islands Provincial Government in May last year after major restoration work. According to the Ministry, visitors will learn about more than 2,500 years of Central Islands history. The displays cover the early Kula people, the arrival of European explorers, the British Protectorate, Tulagi’s time as the country’s colonial capital, the Second World War and the formation of Central Islands Province. The Ministry said the museum will continue to expand its collections through research and close partnership with local communities. One of the main attractions is the Binabina War Canoe, rebuilt by master canoe builder William Semu of Haroro using traditional materials and customary building methods. “The project has not only restored an important traditional canoe but has also helped revive and preserve an important cultural practice for future generations,” the Ministry said. The canoe is displayed inside the specially built Vale Kiala (Kastom Canoe House), where visitors can learn about one of Central Islands Province’s important cultural traditions. The Ministry said the opening of the Nambawan Haus Museum reflects the Government’s commitment to protect the country’s heritage, strengthen cultural identity, support education and research, and promote cultural tourism as part of sustainable economic development.

作者:托尼·伊罗加 文化与旅游部(MCT)表示,期待已久的图拉吉南巴万豪斯博物馆将于7月28日正式开放。 该博物馆是文化与旅游部与中央岛省政府的联合项目。 它将成为该国第二个博物馆,并成为保护中央岛省历史和文化的场所。 预计总理马修·韦尔将在开幕式上主持活动。他将与中央岛省省长肯尼斯·萨古帕里、省议会成员、高级政府官员和发展合作伙伴共同出席。 该部表示,博物馆不仅仅是一个遗产建筑。 “它将作为教育、研究和文化交流的中心,同时保护该省的历史、传统和身份,以造福未来世代,”该部表示。 博物馆位于俯瞰图拉吉港和铁底湾的山丘上,设在恢复后的英国殖民时期驻岛专员查尔斯·Woodford的旧居内。 该建筑在去年5月经过重大修复工作后,正式移交给文化与旅游部和中央岛省政府。 根据该部的说法,游客将了解到超过2500年的中央岛历史。 展览涵盖早期的库拉人、欧洲探险者的到来、英国保护国、图拉吉作为该国殖民首都的时期、第二次世界大战以及中央岛省的形成。 该部表示,博物馆将通过研究和与当地社区的紧密合作,继续扩展其收藏。 主要吸引力之一是比纳比纳战争独木舟,由哈罗罗的独木舟大师威廉·塞穆使用传统材料和习俗建造方法重建。 “该项目不仅恢复了一艘重要的传统独木舟,还帮助复兴和保护了一项重要的文化实践,以造福未来世代,”该部表示。 独木舟展示在专门建造的瓦莱基阿拉(Kastom Canoe House)内,游客可以了解中央岛省重要的文化传统之一。 该部表示,南巴万豪斯博物馆的开幕反映了政府保护国家遗产、增强文化认同、支持教育和研究、以及促进文化旅游作为可持续经济发展的承诺。 照片来源:旅游媒体 反馈请联系:tonyiroga8@gmail.com 编辑:irwin3angiki@gmail.com
