Locuming in The Solomon Islands
Solomon Islands is an archipelagic state situated in the south-west
Pacific Ocean, approximately 2,000 kms to the north-east of Australia.
Its land mass of 28,400 km² extends over nearly one thousand islands
comprising nine main island groups. The capital, Honiara, is located on
Guadalcanal, the largest island.The population of Solomon Islands,
estimated to be over 550,000 in 2011, is predominantly Melanesian (about
95%) although there are also small Polynesian, Micronesian, Chinese and
European communities. There are 63 distinct languages in the country,
with numerous local dialects. English is the official language but
Solomons Pijin is the lingua franca for the majority of people.
The Solomon Islands, lying within 12 degrees latitude of the equator
and more than 1500km from the nearest continent, has a climate typical
of many tropical areas, being characterised by high and rather uniform
temperature and humidity and, in most areas, abundant rainfall in all
months. Rainfall is the least uniform of these climatic elements, as
topographical effects cause significant variations between locations.
