Be kind

Be kind

At times I shall post my observations and opinions. They are derived from my own experiences and sometimes, mistakes made and lessons thus uncovered.

I am often asked by not a few whenever we discuss PNG and where it is and why it is not where it should be and so forth..

"What can I do?"

The answer is simple.

Alot.

Think and the answers will come to you. Many do not use the greatest computer they will ever possess, their mind. They are instead using it for basic activities like playing a candy crush game all day and ignoring the plethora of amazing applications your mind actually does possess. Of all the applications, I find that kindness is the best you can use to make a small difference.

Yes, you can make a positive difference today.

Be kind to others less fortunate.

This simple act is much overlooked by many of us as we all go about being "busy". We are in such a rush to do this and that, go here or there, meet this or that appointment that we often do not see others who need a simple act of kindness or even just a kind word.

This is investing in positive energy and you will reap the returns many fold in some way or another. However this should not be the reason why you are kind. Be kind simply because its the right thing to do.

Try it. Let me know how it goes.

Dirty Darren Lockyer and Sooty Sam Thaiday abuse league to bring coal to PNG

Rugby League should be used to promote positive messages on health and sustainable development. Instead they are abusing league to bring a dirty fuel into PNG - coal. Profit and money win over common decency and humanity. Shame on these dirty DOUCHBAGS.

K15m damages to parliament assessment by Speaker

K15m damages to parliament assessment by Speaker

According to the Speaker of Parliament the damages caused to parliament by disgruntled members of the APEC JSTF is a whopping K15M! This is outlandish and unacceptable and since taxpayers are expected to pay for this, we should all demand to know how he came up with this figure and who did the assessment!!?

APEC will go on for sure..but we can express our disgust at the effort by some people in Government to use this event to enrich themselves..K50m thereabouts for a few luxury vehicles while PNGeans are dying from lack of basic medical care, deteriorating education services, escalating crime and soaring cost of living..

Why not taking notice of landowners in Angore is an unwise decision by Govt..\u000A BOUGAINVILLE PART 2 PROMISED BY FRUSTRATED LANDOWNERS IN ANGORE PDL 8!

Why not taking notice of landowners in Angore is an unwise decision by Govt..\u000A BOUGAINVILLE PART 2 PROMISED BY FRUSTRATED LANDOWNERS IN ANGORE PDL 8!

LANDOWNERS in Angore PDL 8 Shut down Wellhead in frustration at not being heard and paid their dues. They have watched everyone else get paid from THEIR gas and they remain totally ignored by the Government. They have pledged to commit to civil unrest and are armed and ready for Police and Army and have demanded that either they be paid or the project shall remain shut. This stems from a lack of due diligence by Exxon and Oilsearch in ensuring proper social mapping was carried out for the Gas Project.

Why Ban Facebook Part 1

A rant on the Govt decision to ban Facebook in PNG has received worldwide media attention. The Government claims it is doing this to address fake news and fake profiles but many are convinced its a dictatorial measure to curb free speech. Meanwhile many small businesses that use Facebook are now nervous about their future and will have to consider other options...
