Random thoughts for PNG today – Just like in 2011.

By Allan Bird | 19 November 2020.

The same group of men who executed PNGs first Parliamentary Coup in 2011 are now back together in Vanimo.

Just like in 2011, the Law was broken on Friday 13th November 2020 to start the process.

Just like in 2011, Parliamentary numbers were used to pass illegal motions and illegal laws to maintain power.

Just like in 2011, the same team that planned and executed the first assault on our Judiciary is now in Vanimo making plans.

The same team that ran our country from 2011 to 2019 is now camped in Vanimo with some good men who may have forgotten what happened in 2011.

I would like to appeal to those good leaders to recognize who is planning, running and funding their camp to realise the similarities between 2011 and 2020. Because I have not forgotten 2011.

Just like in 2011, ask yourself which side will obey the Courts and which side has the willingness and the record of assaulting the Courts.

The same people who conducted our first coup ran our country from 2011 to 2019. Remember that.

To the man I respect most on that side: Hon Dr Allan Marat. You were on the wrong side in 2011, remember our discussions and please reconsider your position. I appeal to the other good men on that side to see what is likely to happen and ask yourself if you will be part of that.

Just like in 2011, the man who stood strong for the National Alliance Government back then is now our Prime Minister.

I stood with the National Alliance Government in 2011, I was a PANGU member at the time.

I call on PNG to remember 2011, lest we forget.

There's this situation where the daughter of a State Minister in Papua New Guinea got appointed as the acting Managing Director for Climate Change without following the right procedures. People are not happy about it because it looks like she got the job because of who her dad is, not because she's the best person for the job. This kind of thing happening shows that there might be some shady stuff going on in the government there, like favoritism and corruption. It's a big deal because it can affect how well the government agencies work, especially in important areas like Climate Change. To fix this, they need to make sure appointments are fair and based on skills, not just who you know. It's important for the public to keep an eye on these things and speak up when they see something fishy going on to make sure the government is doing things the right way.

Connect PNG PRIME Minister James Marape says the allocation of four ministries to the agriculture sector is a complete paradigm shift to get agriculture moving again. Many commentators were surprised on Tuesday to see new ministries for Coffee and Oil Palm, but Mr Marape said this is part of his government’s ‘take back Papua New Guinea’ vision in the agriculture sector. He said it was no secret that agriculture has declined since Independence in 1975, and allocation of the four ministries is to rekindle the sector, for it to be a major income-generator for Papua New Guinea.

Papua New Guinea ’s Foreign Minister Justin Tkachenko has stepped down from his role for now. But elite politics and money in PNG ensure that when attention shifts once more, he will be back. Papua New Guinea (PNG) is probably the most important country in the Pacific backyard for Australia. For years, the border between PNG and Northern Australia was a source of major marijuana trafficking and some human smuggling to northern Australia. Therefore, Australia will always have an interest in what is happening in PNG. The recent news from Papua New Guinea has therefore come as a big surprise to the Australian political class. Australian-born PNG Foreign Minister Justin Tkachenko was forced to step-aside following the social media outrage over his daughter Savannah Tkachenko’s Tik-Tok video. The video, posted by Savannah, showcases a sumptuous dining experience at Singapore Airlines’ first class airport lounge and an “elite” shopping experience with luxury brands at Changi Airport. She travelled with her father to formally represent PNG at May’s coronation of King Charles. The entire trip was funded by taxpayers. What was even more outrageous was the fact that she was not eligible for the trip as funding was only available for the spouse of the representative, not children.
