UPNG 2014 ALL OVER AGAIN AT UNITECH

HISTORY OF 2014 AT UPNG COMPUS DURING THE REIGN OF BOBY YUPI AS SRC PRESIDENT IS REPLICATED AT UNITECH LAE IN 2016 UNDER ANOTHER SOUTHERN HIGHLANDER DAVID KELMA.

by LEKEM LAKI

I feel for the late young lad from Mendi whose life was brutally ended with his body mutilated in cold blood murder. This is uncalled for and life lost could have been avoided had people acted responsibly and sensibly. We would not be in this scenario counting the lost and cost.
The social media community need to comment responsibly and sensibly. Don’t use fingers to press characters on your electronic device and write anything and everything expressing your vendetta? Well, every individual has right for constitution gives the freedom of speech but again that does not leverages anyone and everyone to put pen to paper and express one’s emotions.
It is typical of human nature to response angrily on the hit of the moment but we have a duty exercise restrained and to react responsibly and sensibly. Dissect things and analyse the contentious issue like a hot potato thrown around. Anything and everything thing in life happens for a reason and it does not for nothing. There is cause and effect. The effects inevitably can have domino causation and has potentiality of nasty repercussions.
There was nothing evil in students boycotting classes and tried in vain to lead a protest march to parliament on the 8th June 2016. Should all protocols were accorded meaning, UPNG administration not calling police, police escorted students safely to parliament to observe the proceedings i
A peaceful boycott of classes organised in a civilized manner. That did not warrant the presence of police on campus. A psychopath policemen who fired live ammunition indiscriminately at unarmed students need arrested followed by others. Policemen inflicted pain, misery and caused great terror amongst the students. Students are slowly recovering from the traumatic event of June 8th 2016.
The composition of commission of inquiry (COI) must be independent and neutral people of reputable standing in the community who can maintain impartiality throughout the duration of the inquiry need get appointed. Not bunch of rogue redundant police officers, corrupt Gari Baki, Peter O’Neil’s stooge to pick and choose. Apparently Ben Turi gave the orders to shoot. There is no secret! Peter O’Neil gives order to stooge G. Baki and he in turn gives order to B. Turi and they cover each other asses very well.
Let me revert to the early incident on the campus in Lae UoT.
Southern Highlands students acted like warlords armed with weapons and charged at rest of the students causing pain, misery and terror. Whether targeted attack or was random, an Enga student was slashed with mercedes knife in that moment. It is a similar replica of a situation at UPNG back in 2014 led by Boby Yupi (SRC President – Southern Highlander). Now, under the SRC leadership of another Southern Highlander (David Kelma) at Uni-Tech, a similar scene is acted out.
Do we ever get to ask, who are these Southern Highlanders? Is this the best way to demonstrate political power by arming provincial student grouping to retain power (PM)? The cycle is being repeated first at UPNG and now Uni-Tech.
Burning down of SRC President’s residence is on purpose. Boby Yupi and his accomplice went unpunished for rowdy and riot behaviour of criminal nature demonstrated at UPNG in 2014 causing fear and terror among the students. Similar scene witnessed at Uni-Tech. Since David Kelma’s mob caused injury and terror, authorities miserably failed to apprehend the suspect.
Taking late Gramme’s life is to be understood in the context of retribution. Should authorities swiftly acted proactively, situation would have been averted. Failure in proactive action has led to disgruntled group reacted and scene of murder in my view will take precedent over the previous incident caused by David Kelma and his accomplice.
David Kelma must be held accountable and take full responsibility including Sothern Highlands and Hela politicians particularizing W. Powi and J. Marape with money bags going around inducing and luring student leadership support for their political mileage.
I highly commend Jnr Wagambi for his composure. The enormity of the situation on campus put his men under immense pressure but stood the test of the night and dispersed with tear gas. Stupid Ben Turi need to learn a lot from Jnr Wagambi.
Otherwise, this is the legacy of Peter O’Neil’s reign. Students turned on against each other and an innocent life taken because of Peter O’Neil’s making.
For critics with informed knowledge support the ruthless Prime minister and claim he’ll be there for next 20, 30 or 40 years, surely he will as far as you want him to be in your wildest dream but certainly not in PNG, mark my word.

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

James Marape's Missteps Openly Exposed at Australian Forum

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

Connect PNG Unveiled: A Tale of Ambition, Scandal, and the Quest for Accountability

Image
  By M.J Passingan In the heart of Papua New Guinea (PNG), a storm brews over the ambitious Connect PNG initiative, a program that ostensibly aims to revolutionize the nation's infrastructure landscape. What was launched with the promise of connecting remote communities and fostering economic growth has spiraled into a scandal of monumental proportions, exposing the underbelly of political maneuvering and alleged financial misconduct at the highest levels of government. The controversy came to light when a brave whistleblower leaked Department of Finance records, revealing a staggering K350 million payment to certain Connect PNG contractors on the same day as the Port Moresby riots. This revelation sent shockwaves through the nation, drawing sharp criticism from notable figures, including former Prime Minister Peter O’Neill. Known for his outspoken nature, O’Neill condemned the exploitation of a noble initiative for what he described as the largest and most sophisticated money laun
