“Organisers of the 2023 Pacific Games remain confident the event will go ahead as planned despite travel restrictions as a result of Covid-19 threatening to delay the construction of major venues in Solomon Islands.

“A number of big projects funded by the Chinese government were scheduled to get underway this year, including the construction of the new national stadium in Honiara, while the Indonesian government had indicated the multi-purpose hall could be completed by the end of next year.

“Lead advisor to the National Hosting Authority, Clint Flood, said the majority of facilities were still in the design stage and they did not expect Covid-19 would impact the construction timeline at this stage.”
