3:54 pm on 25 March 2009

The Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands has welcomed a new Deputy Special Coordinator, Justin Fepulea'i, a Samoan-New Zealander with significant experience in the Pacific.

RAMSI Special Coordinator, Graeme Wilson, says Justin Fepulea'i replaces Jonathan Austin who has made an outstanding contribution to RAMSI's work in Solomon Islands.

Mr Wilson says he is confident that Justin is equally well prepared to take up the challenges of this post given his previous experience in the Pacific.
