The Australian High Commissioner IAN KEMISH says Australia has been in Bougainville under a different chapter in the history of Bougainville in the past.
And today's launch of the Panguna Peace Building Strategy opens another chapter in the peace process on Bougainville. He was speaking in Panguna today.
The High Commissioner said that Australian will continue to assist where ever it can to see Bougainville come out off its current problems. He said Bougainvilleans need to unite to see Bougainville move forward.
On the future of the mine he said that Australia has no say in it and it was up to the people to decide. He also questioned the people if they are ready for it.
The launch was welcomed by heavy downpour immediately after the speeches.
