Chinese nationals sit in a chartered aircraft
provided by Beijing as they prepare to be flown out of the troubled Solomon
Islands after losing all their possessions in the recent riots in Honiara April
23, 2006. Australia is sending additional troops to the Solomon Islands, as
more Chinese fled the country on Sunday amid rising tensions before
parliament opens for the first time since post-election rioting.
