The Rural Alliance Party (RAP) was a political party in the Solomon Islands.

History

[edit]

Following the 1976 elections opposition MPs formed the Coalition Opposition Group. When this disbanded later in the year, the Rural Party was formed by David Kausimae and Faneta Sira.[1] It was later renamed the Rural Alliance Party.

After failing to gain significant influence in Parliament, it merged with the People's Progressive Party in 1979 to form the People's Alliance Party.[1]
