Liquor ban
One irate supermarket manager was complaining bitterly yesterday after being advised by authorities that the liquor ban in Port Moresby had been extended to July 22 because of the elections delays and hiccups in NCD. There has been no sales from the liquor department for more than a month now. Ouch!
Good leader
The six traits of a good leader are: 1) They remain calm in a stressful situation; 2) They show their human side; 3) They listen; 4) They are resilient; 5) They show integrity; 6) They develop talent.
Food for thought
Being humble means recognising that we are not here on earth to see how important we can become, but to see how much difference we can make in the lives of others.

“In recent elections, there have been bitter disputes about the integrity of our electoral system. Now, the country continues to witness appalling scenes of disturbance and violence, created by a few disgruntled and aggressive people, especially in the Highlands region.” – Inter-Department Election Committee chairman Ivan Pomaleu.
