Open Letter to the Minister For Education. Hon. James Marabe MP

Dear Minister, Strengthen Science in Our Schools to Address Religious Bigotry. Since  the action taken by the Speaker to remove the work of Art that graced our Parliament, I have tried to rationalised his behaviour and that of a large number of our Population including members of parliament that support him and have come to the conclusion that his action is  grounded in the  real fear of the supernatural and it is a fear shared by a large part of our Populace and  reflects  the lack of a basic scientific understanding  of causes and effect that  influence the natural world we live in. It is the same fear that leads illiterate villagers to burn their womenfolk for belief in sorcery and leads to unnecessary tribal fights where sorcery is belief to be the cause of death. I have listen to you articulate and speak in the past on major issues that confront our young Nation and would like to think that among the chaos that surround us today you will emerge as the rational voice of the future

Peter O’Neill was one of the three people who orchestrated the NPF Tower Fraud. He helped steal millions from the retirement savings of ordinary Papua New Guineans and he has never been brought to justice. Mr O’Neill, Jimmy Maladina and Herman Leahy shared in the K2.5 million from the scam. There was a Commission of Inquiry into the NPF. It recommended various people be prosecuted for stealing, amongst other offences. One of them was Peter O’Neill. In what is now known as the Tower Fraud, Kumugai Gumi were contracted to build what is now known as Deloitte Tower in Port Moresby – a large multiple story office building. The original contract price was about K47 Million. But will Bill Skate and his boys badly managing and plundering the country, the Kina was on the slide – from 1:1 with the Australian Dollar in 1997 it had quickly slid to K1 = .75c in 1998/99 Kumugai Gumi began to hurt. The building of the tower was not a hugely profitable project and was really a vehicle to entrench the

Whose telling the truth?

By LUCAS KIAP Thank you the Chairman of the Investigation Task-Force Sweep Mr. Sam Koim for shedding some light on the issue of the alleged fraudulent payment of K71.8 million to Paul Paraka Lawyers (PPL). Your media release, dated 7th January 2014 on the issue of the alleged fraudulent payment of K71.8 million to Paul Paraka Lawyers has not only helped clarify the status of the investigations, which you are heading but also bridge the nation, which has been torn apart by the issue as well as erasing any doubt the people may have had developed about the credibility of this government’s seriousness and willingness to fight against corruption. You may have along the way encountered criticisms because the case involves public funds, the money which belongs to the people who are struggling to survive day-in-day-out, while the government on the other hand continues to preach about continued economic growth and big budget plans. You may also have encountered threats because corruption is dee
