Menai challenged
I CHALLENGE the Karimui-Nomane Member Posi Menai to
reveal his electoral development plans and social services priorities as
this is his second term in office. In his first term, virtually nothing was
carried out in the electorate. He cannot boast of the district treasury
rollout programme because it was done by the Treasury Department. There is
nothing tangible from him thus far. One of his biggest failures was his
inability to solicit ideas from the educated elite in the area to plan and
execute development projects and deliver services. Now that he has K10
million, he must set priorities and plans which are transparent. As an
educated young leader, he must have loads of plans. – Gomla Yal, Nokul
village
Greetings from Logos Hope
GOOD morning. I’m sending this from mv Logos Hope, mv Doulos’ new and bigger
sister ship. We are now berthed in the city of Kiel in Germany. My name is
Isabel Gavera and I am from Hanuabada village, Port Moresby. I am honoured
to serve God on board Logos Hope. I urged Papua New Guineans to visit Doulos
and meet its crew and chat with them. Also, don’t forget to buy a book to
remind you of that visit. – Isabel Gavera, mv Logos Hope
Demanding more for less
THE management of a hostel at Voco Point, Lae, is very demanding. They
demand rentals even though it is not the tenants’ fortnight yet. However, it
takes a long time for us to get back our bond fee. I wonder if they have a
computerised system and proper book keeping. The rent has gone up but there
is no maintenance. That, in my opinion, is not fair. – Unsatisfied
tenant, Lae
Speaker taken to task
I BELIEVE it is time for the Speaker to vacate his seat for the sake of the
nation. I also call on Ombudsman Commission check his previous record. –
Okoro Upa Mapno, Kaminsu
