Time to call it a day, Sir MTS


When the old man (MTS) underwent offshore heart operations last year, the son announced the family's resolution about retiring their father from politics. However, this was utterly overturned when the frail and pale looking old man adamantly declared his intentions soon after returning from Singapore that he will relentlessly defend his post as he was still the Legal PM of the Nation.

On a similar note, the daughter couple of weeks ago via Liam Fox, ABC correspondence News echoed similar family sentiment regarding their father’s exit in local politics however, this was again countered with cold reception from the old man yesterday when he announced he is still yet undecided whilst implicitly implying his intentions to run the NE.

 From yesterday’s final Parliament Sitting, Dame Kidu and Sir Mek announced their last day in politics and received their well-deserved send-offs from the House however, nothing of this sort did we see forthcoming from the old man. So, it is sensible to conclude that he has made up his mind already! In another interview, he brushed aside conflicting rumors and further reaffirms his strong intentions to fight vigorously and form the next government and as such he will contest this 2012 NE

We also know that during the last election (2007), in his main campaign pump-up speeches to rally support to be voted back into Parliament, he blatantly and publicly announced to the people of ESP about his plans in politics that the term (2007-2012) was going to be his last and thus, this was received with warm welcome by all.  Now the people of ESP and the whole country for that matter is well aware of this and as such, all eyes are eagerly watching and waiting to see if he will respect his own words!

Furthermore, fresh in everyone’s memory is the recent NA regime toppling when the faction led by now the THE Party Leader, Hon. DP dissociating himself with rest of the others to team up with ONemah to unfold the ‘Surprise Package’ on the Aug 2, 2011! - The surprise move was based on pure disgruntlement by majority because of continuous injustice by NA hierarchy. In that, the top boss was running the Country like a family affair (this is not to mention the ‘up-grading’ of the National NEC to ‘Kitchen Cabinet)’ and at the same time limiting practically all State-owned entities and National Politics to his lineage. How thoughtless and self-centered is this!

Having considered most of the turn of events, now let us logically put it into perspective regarding the old man’s stubborn pursuit, if it is still confirmed regarding his intentions to contest the 2012 NE;

1. Old man cannot obey himself and live up to his words. In that he is untrue to himself because as far as the people from ESP and PNG are concerned, this should be his last term.

2. Old man cannot even listen to his immediate family members (including Bertha and Arthur). Family members are pillar thru which one draws off his/her support and strength. If you are not listening to yourself and your family colloquy, then to start off with, I wonder if you have any respect for yourself and your family for that matter! Does your family and you been in existence is of any significance to you at all, old man?? How stubborn!

3. His very NA members including his very close allies and coalition partners no longer have any confidence in him and as such have deserted him; they have dissociated any affiliations etc. with him. This was evident on Aug 2, 2011. Have you not realized that you have lost grip of you own ship?? You got to be a fool to believe that the same team of ducks who jumped ship and betrayed you broad day light to come back to you to form the next government?? I guess they are happy where they are. Besides, they have bigger and better dreams than to be once more be toyed around by you. Those days are up!

4. Life in its typical growth stages naturally shows that the age group between 25-45 years is the prime time. After that, ones capacity of thinking (intelligence) and level of productivity (performance) inherently decline respectively as age increases. What good do you expect off an 80 year old weak old man?? Average Life expectancy of PNG is between 65-75 years.

I can go on and on but I stop here; When all odds are pointing against you old man, with all due respect, I would think that it will ONLY be proper, thoughtful and considerate of you to bow out of Politics when the sun is still shining. If there is any time in the history of this young Nation for you to salvage any of that residual lost pride and dignity on your well-deserved title – The Founding Father & The GC of the Nation, then trust me, it is now. Who knows, you might suffer even further humiliations if someone else unseats you in this NE as the mandate is not hereditary nor a birth right. This is Principles of Democracy whereby people chose by VOTE!

Therefore, having said this, it is only appropriate to call it a day in politics and not contest 2012 NE as the People of ESP, PNG and the International Communities alike are watching curiously. You will be remembered by everyone for this bold decision as there is nothing to prove (if that is what you are up against) so to speak.

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,,,

Image
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

James Marape's Missteps Openly Exposed at Australian Forum

Image
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
