Personal life


Danny Philip was born on 5 August 1953.[4][5] His mother, who suffered from poliomyelitis, died just two days after his birth.[4]


Philip has been an English teacher and linguist by profession.[4] He is from the town of Lokuru, which is located on Rendova Island, Western Province.[4] Philip is married to his current wife, Margaret Philip. He has two former wives from previous marriages.[6]



Political career


Philip previously served four terms in the National Parliament of Solomon Islands between 1984 and 2001.[7] He represented the Vona Vona-Rendova-Tetepare constituency from 1984 until 1993.[7] Philip was then elected as the MP from the South New Georgia-Rendova-Tetepare constuency from 1994 until 2001.[7]


Philip served as the Solomon Islands' Foreign Minister for two tenures, 1995 to 1996 and again from July 2000 to June 2001.[5]


Philip is currently the Member of Parliament representing South New Georgia-Rendova-Tetepare as of 2010.[7]



Prime Minister of the Solomon Islands


Philip was narrowly elected the Prime Minister of the Solomon Islands on 24 August 2010, following the 2010 general election.[8] Philip and his supporters, who constituted the so-called "Pacific Casino camp,"[9] narrowly defeated Steve Abana, the leader of the Solomon Islands Democratic Party, by just three votes: Philip received 26 votes while Abana garnered 23.[8] He replaced caretaker Prime Minister Derek Sikua.


In a victory speech following the Prime Minister election, Philip stated that his first priority would be to form a new government.[8] He said his government would actively support the country's Constitutional Reform process.[8] This had been one of his central campaign pledges, and reason for creating the Reform Democratic Party.[3]


Upon naming his Cabinet, he appointed Manasseh Maelanga as his deputy.[10]


On 11 November 2011, after the defection of five ministers and seven backbenchers to the Opposition, Philip resigned rather than face a motion of no confidence. He led an interim government until Parliament elected a new Prime Minister on 16 November.[11][12]Gordon Darcy Lilo, a member of Philip's National Coalition for Reform and Advancement, was elected as his successor on 16 November.


Philip elected to remain in parliament as a backbencher after leaving the Prime Minister's office.[5]

Volkswagen Group MQB platform

Image
The Volkswagen Group MQB platform is the company's strategy for shared modular design construction of its transverse, front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout (optional front-engine, four-wheel-drive layout) automobiles. Volkswagen spent roughly $60bn [1] developing this new platform and the cars employing it. The platform underpins a wide range of cars from the supermini class to the mid size SUV class. MQB allows Volkswagen to assemble any of its cars based on this platform across all of its MQB ready factories. This allows the Volkswagen group flexibility to shift production as needed between its different factories. Beginning in 2012, Volkswagen Group marketed the strategy under the code name MQB , which stands for Modularer Querbaukasten , translating from German to "Modular Transversal Toolkit" or "Modular Transverse Matrix". [2] [3] MQB is one strategy within VW's overall MB (Modularer Baukasten or modular matrix) program which also includes th...
