“ A prime example of being a leader . Newly elected in to office , he stays home and direct , delegate , and his ministers will do according to his directive . Yes he should go but, its not imperative that he should attend if he has ministers who are capable of promoting and negotiating his Governments view with the members of the Pacific Forum . His is in the process of forming a new governing body so he needs to be at the helm , whilst his able bodied ministers are out there doing what they are suppose to be doing . A pity we aren't as open minded ?? ”
