PAPUA NEW GUINEA PRIME MINISTER ADDRESSES GENERAL DEBATE, 76TH SESSION
James Marape, Prime Minister and Minister for Bougainville Affairs of the Independent State of Papua New Guinea, addresses the general debate of the 76th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 21-27 September 2021). The UN General Assembly (UNGA) is the main policy-making organ of the Organization.
Comprising all Member States, it provides a unique forum for multilateral discussion of the full spectrum of international issues covered by the Charter of the United Nations. Each of the 193 Member States of the United Nations has an equal vote.
The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.
The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world. But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.

Prime Minister James Marape,
Your September 2021 speech to the United National General Assembly, is the category of speech, only a few can present, and more so, when it is presented before the Assembly of World Leaders, of the World Government.
Though this is clearly an unwritten speech, this is speech flow, that for many, including world leaders, would be read from a written version.
You have succinctly advocated your country well, so we'll, that as I am observing you from where I am, you are speaking as if you have stood on that podium before.
Your gesture and your dimeanour speaks its own vocabulary of a man, who not only is full of vision and of hope, but who also knows how and when to get to your destined vision for your nation.
Your body is permeated with confidence. Even the air around you commend you. I am sure you have captured the hearts of the audience of world leaders.
I am sure many have spoken well of your speech, of your associated flow of peace in and during the presentation, and of course, of Papua New Guinea.
Only Prime Minister materials can deliver this category of speech. You did us proud.
Thankyou.

My father told me stories of the life in the 60s. When the roads I now call bush tracks were once proud highways. The town, once filled with hopeful faces in decent clothes, locals and expats alike, now feels weighed down by neglect… A place where laziness and greed seem to grow, where dreams fade into filth. Still, I will…
