NAQIA for some reason does not issue new phytosanitary docs for Shipment Samples. Completely undermining commodity exports out of PNG. No reasons given and no one to talk to. NAQIA now preventing commodity exports + disappointing international customers of PNG products. 🤷🏽‍♂️👏🏽

See it so often; PNG newspapers referring to “youths”. Usually if there’s a photo it depicts grown men with full beards. PNG definition of “youth” is someone who is not old? PNG youth: a man between age of 16 and 46. (Am I close? 😬)

Can PNG Power give us the courtesy of a schedule on when they intend to actually do provide some power in Goroka? 🤷🏽‍♂️ Last night was less than 5 minutes between blackouts. (My genset was insulted )

Wouldn’t it be much more fun (and closer to truth) if we start reporting the moves and crossovers in PNG politics as if they were transfer transactions in sports? VONC = transfer season! Just tell us each player’s worth and the position they’ll play in next 😬

That was an elaborate blame-game speech from PNG’s PM. Never take responsibility. Let’s summarize: “tasol, i no me!”

Oh PNG … this makes me sad. I wish our friends in Waigani would just focus a little bit more on core issues domestically .

Here’s one to ponder over: Tried to buy a six pack of Heineken ZERO . Wouldn’t sell “ due to a liquor ban.” 🤣 … I thought that was funny. Shouldn’t Heineken Zero qualify as a soft drink ?

More than a week of loudspeakers blasting someone’s angry preaching. 5 am till 8. Again after 5pm. Respecting thy fellow man’s peace & quiet is worthy of consideration?. This doesn’t exactly bring me closer to salvation and pure thoughts. This isn’t saving any souls ..😠

Is this real? PNG acting like big bro, while service levels are sub-zero in rural PNG? That amount would stock just about all rural aid posts. That amount would mean huge supply of basic resources for community schools.

10 years ago. We have come a long way. But not quite there yet. Surely PNG still ranks in the top 5 (top3?) of most expensive countries in the world for data & internet access. Hopefully Starlink will be rolled out ASAP!!

Papua New Guinea government has proposed to established six new ministries in the face of increasing unemployment and rampant inflation. Is this a strategic masterstroke or a glaring display of incompetence and stupidity? Photo: Asia Pacific Reports

Why is it so quiet around the allegations against Goroka MP / our minister for agriculture. Strange. It’s a major portfolio. Media ban ?

Malangan ceremony behind us. What an event! New Ireland traditions remain firmly imbedded in daily life. Fantastic to experience, and proud to call this part of the 🌏 ‘home’. A new cohort of Maimai’s (chief) initiated ✅. Congrats to all! So proud to see my son up there 💪🏽
