Betel nut

E-mail Print
Dear Editor - Betel nut chewing always illuminate a bad appearance  where ever and when ever people chew and spit it on the streets.

In the past, Solomon islands was snapped the bride of  a beautiful happy isles, a place where tourist endeavoured to live.

However, tourist themselves feel the filthiness the city center of our  country is like, because of the increasing habit of chewing this so called nut.

Should there be anything we can do to bring back the bride we lost?

The solution itself lies in our hands. Luksave lo ples fo spit lo hem fo mekem town blo iumi luk klin moa.

It is very shameful that foreigners themselves wrote about how bad  our country's reputation is just because of betel nut!

Bae ota tourist les fo kam lo ples wea hem dirty.

If we want to attract more visitors into our country, it's time we control the habit  of selling and chewing betel nut in our beautiful town/city center.
