Time to think beyond Namah and O'Neill

Image
By JAMES PARAKISSAN Are Peter O'Neil and Belden Namah the best PNG can produce to be Prime Minister? What about the rest? Did they get elected to be National Leaders or to be followers of O'Neil and Namah? The sheeple are currently been brainwashed into thinking that the coalition being put forward by O'Neil is a Government of National Unity to produce Stability. This sounds pretty much like the creation of the Original Somare regime. During the Somare years PNG had an unprecedented 2 terms (10 years) of relative political stability. Political stability was coupled with years of commodity price booms that saw record budget surpluses. What did the people of Papua New Guinea gain from the political stability and increased revenue. Over 10 years over K60 billion was squandered with no improvement in social indicators. Democracy was undermined as debates in Parliament by the opposition, were gagged. The last decade was pretty bad for the people of Papua New Guinea and many want

I stand to fight against corruption if it means sacrificing my own life

PAPUA NEW GUINEA WENT INTO the 2012 national election looking for change; looking at fixing the wrongs of the past and bringing much needed reforms into our country. More importantly Papua New Guinea went into the 2012 national election to bring change in the leadership of our country. Leadership that can advocate and champion change. My party, the PNG Party, stands for change. What PNG must see is that same old players are coming back into our political playing field. Many of these politicians are responsible for destroying young leaders in the past. They will only suppress and marginalize the emergence of young and vibrant leaders of our country. The same politicians are also responsible in the downturn of our economy. The same politicians are also responsible for the deteriorating conditions of basic services to our people. This is all due to bad leadership. This battle is not mine. This is the battle for the simple people of this country. In other words, this is Papua New Guinea’s

ISSUES WITHOUT TEARS: LOBBY FOR GARRY JUFFA, BELDON NAMAH, SAM BASSIL, POWES PARKOP

By CHRISTOPHER PAPIALI Let us lobby for some of the leaders highlighted here. Whether they become Prime Minister or ministers is left to them but I think they deserve peoples’ blessing to be involved more directly or indirectly in managing the affairs of this great nation and its people. They are straight shooters whom I believe can ‘clean’ this country in the next 5 years. I have never voted and have not physically dinned with Garry, Beldon, Sam and Powes but they stand tall because they embrace my views on Papua New Guineas political leaders who stand up to speak and perform without submission and dominance by foreign interests. They are true national leaders who can deposit billions of kina back into this country before withdrawing and depositing elsewhere. If what they hold in their hearts can be translated into physical developmental manifestations then why don’t we support these leaders because they represent our silent voices? I believe that we should not talk about developing p

BELDEN NORMAN NAMAH MUST FORM GOVERNMENT

Image
By GRAHAM ROBINSON Indeed Papua New Guinea has a lot to offer to its people with its multi-billion kina projects stemming from its rich soil and hold to this day that government who will create an equal distribution of wealth amongst its citizens with a strong future for all. Over the last ten months Papua New Guinea experienced a change in government with a major policy re-introduced; FREE EDUCATION embraced by the low to middle income earners distributed amongst the rural and urban folk in Papua New Guinea.  Papua New Guinea will see change in the next 5 years; and despite the invisible fence that currently divide our support between two leaders, we must look forward to change. The desire for change in Papua New Guinea has echoed down three and a half generations despite our society’s transformation from primitive isolation to being one of the richest economies in the world. Change in inevitable and will continue to do so but at a cost we are bearing at this time. Looking more close
