The complaint was formally laid against him with the Sexual Offence Squad (SOS) in Kokopo, at the Kokopo Police Station on February 7, 2017. However, he has not been formally arrested and charged. This is because the East New Britain Provincial Police Commander Joseph Tabali has allegedly refused to effect the arrest and formally char

by SAM BASIL MP Since the O’Neil PNC government took office five years ago, their mismanagement of the economy has been acknowledged by myself, representing the Opposition, on countless occasions, from the illegal UBS loan and a substantial decrease in  foreign reserves, to the lack of education and health foresight bestowed on Papua New Guineans. The lack of teaching facilities and lack of medicine as well as the manipulation of economic information on the status of our economy, is enough to inform Papua New Guineans that the O’Neil PNC government hasn’t prioritised the welfare of PNG’s population and the economy. Certain public servants are also responsible for their negligence, in conforming to the ill will of the coalition government and one of these public servants is the Governor of the Bank Of PNG (BPNG), Loi Bakani. His recent outrageous comment that the economy shouldn’t be a topic of discussion during the election, can only reflect his guilty conscience when visible

PRESS RELEASE Prime Minister Peter O’Neill’s latest spin on the economy, in relation to this month’s Moody’s Investors Services credit rating for Papua New Guinea, is complete nonsense. It bears no resemblance to the reality of what the credit rating agency actually said, and has rightly been rubbished by social media. Moody’s in fact is highly critical of the economy and government finances, reflecting Mr O’Neill’s five years of corruption, waste and mismanagement, and enumerates a number of potential risks that could cause further damage and more suffering for Papua New Guineans. To counter his selective use of the few plusses in the Moody’s report, and his misleading analysis of it, here is the downside, as reported by Moody’s: “Papua New Guinea's (PNG) B2 rating and stable outlook reflect significant pressure on government financing and external liquidity amid structurally low commodity prices and continued weak GDP growth. “Credit challenges also stem from weaknesses in g

by PNGBLOGS STAFF REPORTERS Outlets like the Post-Courier, the National and EMTV are compromised from top to bottom by their own corruption and by fear of the O’Neill Regime’s standover tactics. Some of their journalists are no better than the media prostitutes (the FLOOZIE DOOZIES) paid by Peter O’Neill to spread his word on social media. My example will be the Post-Courier, the nation’s oldest surviving daily newspaper and for decades a paragon of media excellence, along with the NBC. Today it is a shadow of its former self, its reputation in tatters and its circulation declining. There are two aspects to the Post’s corruption - senior management interference in editorial on behalf of the O’Neill Regime, and journalistic corruption. These aspects apply to other news outlets to different degrees and with different emphasis but with the same outcome. The National and EMTV suffer more from management interference and the fear engendered by the O’Neill regime

by FRANCIS AKOL We are about to go complete recruitment of TEW in the next two weeks and into training on the 10th June 2017. We are ready to conduct polling thereafter and proceed to scrutiny /counting and declaring MPs and Governor elects.  We however note that we may encounter some problems during the course of the elections.  The first and foremost reasons would be associated with the Common Roll Updates.  1. Many voters may not have their names on the common Roll thus denying their constitutional rights to vote. This will result in frustration and reprisals from affected voters.  2. Many Enrollment Agents have NOT received their due allowances. These are the same group of people who are expected to conduct the election as TEW officials. They will demand for their outstanding allowances to be paid first before anything else. We will be faced with serious trouble from these two groups of people and candidates will be the ones most affected.  (Our team is fully aware

by PETER BALOS  1. Introduction. Reality on the ground speaks volume that for the last twenty-five years, nothing much had been selflessly done to improve the livelihood of our KA people. This short piece aims to illuminate what had been and is apparently happening to our people's money. 2. What belongs to the MP. People of KA perhaps want to know how much their MP earns every fortnight and rightfully so as voters and tax payers. All MPs (excluding PM, Speaker, DPM, OL, Ministers and Governors) earned an annual base salary of 106 266.71 by 2016, that was, K4 087.18 every fortnight. The annual base salary of a Government Minister including Mr. Pundari by then was K211 773.71, that was, K8 145.14 every fortnight. For the five years starting from 2012 to 2017 is well above K1.05m (K1 050 000.00). The moral of such exorbitant increment still remains nix nationwide. 3. What belongs to the people. 3.1 District Support Grant (DSG). In each year, KA receives a constitutio

by YAKAN LEPAKALI Let us travel the lanes of another Pundari corruption web. TAGE PIMANA YAKAIN INVESTMENTS LTD (1-63724) was registered and incorporated on the 30th  May 2008. That is 8 months after John Pundari was elected the MP for Kompiam Ambum under questionable circumstances. The company used by John Pundari to legally funnel public money to build his kingdom. A brief background on the relationship between John Yongamen and John Pundari is that, during the 2007 national election campaign, the front man of the company Yongamen gave K20 000.00 in cash to John Pundari as a show of support and loyalty. This was done in public. As expected, Pundari had to pay back if he wins. Well, he won so the company was formed for possible business opportunities. The directors of Tage Pimana Yakain Investment are one Besakali DEGEN and John YONGAMAN. They are from the Lair tribe in the yakan tambukin tribe. Unfortunately, the shareholders are names from their tribe, although only 5 are real na

by JIHE STUDENT VOICE Thaddeus Kambanei, a fraudster at the Finance department,  who is heavily implicated in the High profile finance department commission of inquiry is at it again- this time robbing a small church run institution. Students were asked to pay 75% of the full fee of K16000  (the break up is unknown ). Students paid. Their money ran out in April 2017. The fraudster is now telling the students to pay up the remaining 25% even before the first semester is over. He has warned them of cancelling their exams of they don't pay the 25%. A sane person will take the students to 75% of the academic year which is around September.  Only an insane criminal like Thaddeus Kambanei will ask for more without delivering what is due to the students . The Chairman of the Governing Council  Dr Eric Kwa is equally culpable of the theft going on at JIHE . How can he sit back, relax and watch a tainted character like Thaddeus Kambanei run havoc at a higher learning institution?  As we w

by DANIEL KUMBON IN September 1991, while visiting the United States, I refused to meet Pastor Peter Halliman in Cleveland, Ohio, after a damaging article appeared in a major American newspaper.He was with Ekere Embago, an illiterate pastor from Koroba in the Southern Highlands, and they were speaking to church congregations from the east to the west coasts appealing for funds to do more missionary work in the jungles of Papua New Guinea which, they claimed, were still inhabited by missionary eating cannibal tribes. They appeared to be very successful in using the media, calling press conferences in major cities and towns to draw attention to their cause. Many years on, I wonder if Halliman was a soldier or a pastor. Or if he left missionary work to establish the Lawrence Aviation and Security Group, the employer of the six mercenaries who over the last few days have caused so much consternation in Port Moresby. According to Papua New Guinea’s police commissioner Gari Baki,

PRESS STATEMENT Former Prime Minister Sir Mekere Morauta said today people and politicians should ignore calls by the Governor of the Bank of Papua New Guinea, Mr Loi Bakani, not to discuss the economy during the election campaign. “This is an outrageous statement,” Sir Mekere said. “We live in a democracy – members of the public and political candidates have every right to question the state of our economy and public finances. “The stagnation of the economy, job losses, the foreign currency shortage, the current cash flow crisis and the monetary situation are legitimate and critical topics for public debate and discussion. “How are we going to get out of the mess created by the O’Neill Government, with Mr Bakani’s willing helping hand, if we do not debate it, identify the causes and come up with solutions? “It is incredible that a Governor of a central bank should get the bank deeply involved in politics. If the Governor is going to say anything during this campaign he sh

by BRYAN KRAMER It has been almost four years now since I stumbled across social media. It has provided the reach and influence in fighting corruption that is beyond the average person's imagination Over those four years I have published countless articles exposing high-level corruption implicating senior heads of Government, Police Commissioners, Constitutional Office holders, Supreme Court Judges, high-profile lawyers, M embers of Parliament, Ministers and even the Prime Minister. Now is it beyond doubt most if not all my articles are highly defamatory raising serious criminal allegations against all of them. Defamation is defined as accusations (claims) against a person that injures or damages their reputation. Under PNG law a person maybe sued or criminally charged for committing it. O'Neill Government recently passed Cyber-Crime Act and made amendments to the Criminal code defining defamation as a serious criminal offence. The new amendments state that a
