CHIEF JUSTICE BLOCKED FROM ENTERING CHAMBERS



The Chief Justice was not allowed into the court house this morning by the police. The Acting CJ was allowed in. He is now in control of the courts. It is likely that the call for the relevant parties to appear on Tuesday will be rescinded.
The political fiasco involving the three arms of the government is deepening. Armed policemen today prevented Chief Justice, Sir Salamo Injia, access to the court house at Waigani as he was going to work. In a statement, Sir Salamo says the policemen, led by Deputy Commissioner Simon Kauba disregarded a copy of the Supreme Court order which stayed the suspension of Sir Salamo. 
 A three-men bench, headed by Sir Salamo himself late yesterday, stayed an earlier Cabinet decision to suspend Sir Salamo for alleged misconduct in office. The stay order will be in place pending contempt charges to be laid against Peter O'Neill, his NEC and certain lawyers. But Deputy Prime Minister, Belden Namah, justified the police action saying Sir Salamo had compromised the Chief Justice position by heading the three men bench when he should not.
Sir Salamo on the other hand says he was not notified of any allegations against him nor was he given any opportunity to be heard before Cabinet decided to suspend him and will continue to perform his duties. This is the second time the government has tried to suspend the Chief Justice
Sir Salamoa Injia has stated in a Press Release that he will continue to perform the duties of the office of the Chief Justice until such time as a court of competent jurisdiction discharges the court order. 
With regards to the suspension, Sir Salamoa says he was not notified of any allegations of misconduct against him and not given an opportunity to be heard before the decision to suspend him from office was made by the NEC. 
After the announcing the suspension yesterday during a Press Conference, Parliament elects PM, Peter ONIEL, says Deputy Chief Justice, Gibbs Salika is now the Acting CJ. Meanwhile, Deputy PM, under the ONIEL/NAMA Government, Belden NAMAH this morning told media representatives that a Deputy Chief Justice will be appointed soon.

    It was long time coming. Police allegation was the basis. It was why police did not arrest Namah and Marat in the first place in November 2011. Law will reign.

    Peter O'Neill is a tyrant. All evidence are pointing in that direction. The Prime Minister and National Executive Council (Amendment) Act 2011 makes him a dictator hiding behind privileges of Parliament. It is courageous of the Chief Justice to deal with the tyranny of this tyrannical leader Peter O'Neill. PNG will see law triumphs.

    No leader with people at heart should support Peter O'Neill any more. Grand Chief Somare is right. O'Neill - Namah regime is showing madness with power. O'Neill and Namah are like cunning serpent in the Garden of Eden. Eve and Adam in leaders of Opposition Mekere and Bart ate the forbidden fruit. Truth is evil was moved to the Opposition. Peter O'Neill is a result of a coordinated plot to remove Somares from PNG politics. Truth and justice will be brought to the fore.

    How much truth is in the allegations against the CJ. If it is enough,the NEC decision to suspend is for the better. The CJ will only be defending his stupidity if he remains. Come on PNG, let Salamo try to get out of this without political aid and will see who is telling the truth. Oneill/Namah maybe right, but if Salamo is right, then the constitution wins and Oneill/Namah should be dealt with. Only the outcome of CJ's case will determine the future of PNG politics...maybe!!

    O'Neill stole power. Respect leaders Who uphold constitution. Not O'Neill. Truth is he is a law breaker. How can we support O'Neill? We are principled people unlike O'Neill and his supporters. Read 1Timothy 2:4-9.

    O'Neill and his supporters are scared of biblical truths. Money is the reason for O'Neill and his supporters. Money lust made O'Neill steal power. People know it and will kick him out of people's parliament.

PNG, VERY RICH YET STILL A VERY VERY POOR COUNTRY

Image
by GARY MONDULAME Papua New Guinea (PNG), a nation blessed with abundant natural resources, continues to grapple with economic challenges that belie its potential wealth. The nation's economic narrative is a paradox—rich in resources yet burdened by poverty. The explanation for this paradox lies not only in economic mismanagement but also in deep-seated corruption that has permeated the political landscape since independence in 1975. Following its independence from Australia, PNG was entrusted to leaders who lacked a vision for a holistic national development. This absence of foresight is evident from the lack of long-term development plans that could have distributed the country’s wealth fairly across all regions and communities. Successive governments failed to establish foundational strategies such as building satellite townships or creating robust rural housing schemes. Instead, they resorted to short-term, reactive measures that did not foster sustainable growth. The nascent l

BLIND LEADING THE BLIND, WHY THE PNG ECONOMY STILL SUCKS

Image
Elizabeth Genia, Acting Governor Bank of PNG (BPNG) by MICHAEL JOSEPH PASSINGAN The economy of Papua New Guinea (PNG) is at a crucial juncture. Despite some signs of recovery, the country faces several structural challenges that continue to impede its economic progress. The March 2024 Monetary Policy Statement from the Bank of Papua New Guinea sheds light on these issues, providing a comprehensive overview of the economic landscape and the policy responses being implemented to navigate through these turbulent times. In 2023, PNG's economy grew by a modest 1.4%, a significant slowdown from the 5.2% growth witnessed in 2022. This tepid growth is largely attributed to delays in major projects and ongoing economic issues that have not been fully resolved. The anticipated growth for 2024 is around 3.0%, buoyed by the resumption of production at the Porgera gold mine. While this marks an improvement, it remains subdued compared to the potential of this resource-rich nation. One of the mo

HIGHLANDS FRAUD F*CKS RUNNING GOVERNMENT AGENCY,,,

A Fraudster and unqualified person has been shortlisted for NEC submission for the position of CEPA Managing Director. The candidate in question is Jude Tukulyia. His academic credentials are subject to scrutiny. Further investigation is required to verify the authenticity and legitimacy of his qualifications, particularly the reported diploma in accounting, Bachelor of Laws, MBA from Divine Word and UPNG respectively. It is very suspicious and unprofessional  when the Minister for Environment Conservation and Climate Change, Hon Simo Kilepa, wrote to UPNG Vice Chancellor asking to confirm Jude’s questioned education qualifications. This very due diligence work is the core responsibility of the Public Service Commission and Department of Personnel Management. What authority does the portfolio minister have to write to the Universities? Dumbfounding indeed if one asks. Ulterior motives written all over the letter. This amounts to  Questionable Academic Qualifications of Mr Tukulyia.

AUGUSTINE MANO PNG'S PREMIER CORPORATE CROOK

Image
by  MICHAEL J. PASSINGAN In a significant setback for Mineral Resources Development Corporation (MRDC), the Supreme Court of Papua New Guinea has dismissed the company's appeal to stop criminal investigations into its dealings with landowner funds held in the Pacific Balance Fund (PBF). The court ruled that MRDC's appeal was an "abuse of process" and ordered the company to pay costs of the proceedings. MRDC, a unit holder in PBF, had taken legal action against the National Court's decision to dismiss its case, arguing that the court had no jurisdiction to hear the matter. However, the Supreme Court disagreed and held that MRDC's appeal was nothing more than an attempt to interfere with the police's criminal investigative process. The court found that MRDC had no authority to conducted its own investigation into the activities of the Melanesian Trustee Services Limited (MTSL), the fund manager of PBF, and that its actions were in violation of the Trust Deed

by  MICHAEL J. PASSINGAN  In a recent event that highlighted the complexities of international diplomacy and governance, Papua New Guinea's Prime Minister, James Marape, faced a challenging situation during his appearance at the Lowy Institute in Sydney, Australia. The Lowy Institute, known for its role as an independent think tank focusing on international policy, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region, provided a platform for a candid assessment of Marape's governance. Following his formal address, Marape engaged in a dialogue with Dr. Michael Fullilove AM, the Executive Director of the Institute. Dr. Fullilove, a respected figure in public and international policy, scrutinized Marape's past promises and statements, contrasting them with the current state of affairs in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The discussion took a critical turn as Dr. Fullilove revisited Marape's 2019 speech at the same venue, where Marape had outlined his vision for PNG in a speech titled “A New Boo
