EXPLAINING THUNDER WITHOUT RAIN IN PNG POLITICAL CONTEXT – by Allan Bird
Thunder without rain: Two years ago, Sepik MPs asked Dr Hnanguie to do some work for us and he estimated that our economy was growing at around 5%. That’s while the PNG economy was in the negative. My people are the thunder and it’s raining in their villages. Our standard is the village and that’s where we are working. Rome was not built in a day and Sepik will not be built in a day either. This is how we build the country, from the village up. -ABird.
