Do more to attract tourists

Letters

IF you compare Papua New Guinea with Fiji, Vanuatu, Tonga and other Pacific island countries, PNG have so much to attract a lot of tourists.
However, you will realise that a lot of tourist flood to other Pacific islands rather then select PNG as their destination.
Only few manage to explore PNG.
The only cause is security reasons.
Today we cannot deny the fact that tourists cannot move freely at any point at any time.
Armed robbery, holdup and petty crimes are growing at a fast rate.
Our behavior and attitude is sending a bad image of the country to the world that PNG is not safe for them.
We will depend on tourism and agriculture in the future when we exhaust all our non-renewable resources such as oil and gas.
The Government has no choice but to do everything to protect tourism industry in PNG.
The Government should introduce a law that will protect tourists.
It will be good if the Government applies death penalty on anyone who attacks tourists.
This will send a message to people that PNG is a good country and we cannot let only a few people destory our image and potentional for tourism.
