Description
Solomon Islands Prime Minister-elect Jeremiah Manele speaks to media after being chosen by lawmakers to lead the small Pacific nation.
Manele won 31 votes in a secret ballot of 50 MPs, said Governor-General David Vunagi, the climax of a national election that will resonate in Beijing, Washington, and across the South Pacific. His opponent, democratic reformer and longtime opposition leader Matthew Wale, garnered 18 votes. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
