Please fix wages disparity
I wish to add to Ex Member, OTML Winning Team
regarding the media release by David Tibu (The National Feb 13). I find it
very very hard to understand why after 33 years as a nation there is still
this discrimination regarding wages. We have so many highly qualified and
competent nationals who are working alongside incompetent and overpaid
expatriates as we have a system in place where expatriates have more
benefits than the nationals. And bro – Ex Member, OTML Winning Team – it is
not only in the mining sector, it is basically across all sectors of the
workforce. Please whoever is able to rectify this issue do something about
it before we have a huge brain drain and we will be begging for more
expatriates and it becomes a vicious cycle. – Underpaid National
Thanks for the support
I want to express my sincere gratitude to the Member for South Fly Sali
Suban for sponsoring 100 plus South Fly students currently attending the
Port Moresby Technical College. It certainly is a great gesture of relief
for the poor parents of these students. I shed a tear or two when I saw the
the EMTV news on Feb 11 as this is the first time ever that our MP has come
to the aid of the students and parents of South Fly. Member, your initiative
will certainly go along way in helping many people become architects,
engineers, geologists and scientists. – Muiam Mergar,Port Moresby
Nafund is a model
As a contributing member of Nasfund, I would like to say that many members
would be very grateful for the record 37% interest that will be paid to each
contributing member of the superfund. I would like to congratulate Rod
Mitchell and Ian Tarutia and their staff for making the right economic
decisions, their transparency and efficiency in managing Nasfund. It is my
dream and hope that there would be more Tarutias and Mitchells in many
public offices in our beautiful country. – Karanas II , Ialibu
Blurred vision on telehones
Communication Minister Mr Patrick Tammur’s statement of seeing the light at
the end of tunnel is quite confusing. With jammed and delayed mobile phone
interconnection and exclusive rights to Telikom, this is like pushing the
communication system back to its original position before competition. Just
today an SMS from Vodafone advised me of increased phone charges to PNG and
East Timor to be effective from the first week of March. – DingaKumul,
Australia
