Extend Parlt terms to seven years

Letters

PARLIAMENT’S five-year term of parliament needs to be changed and increase up to seven years or more in order for government visions and policies to be fully implemented.
After or within the five years, PNG experiences constant changes of leadership and government which, in turn, changes political directives, visions and policies.
PNG will not pick up the pace in development if these constant changes continue.
PNG needs to review the Constitution and other laws governing the political and government system. Our democratic system of government needs to be guided properly through the legislation amendments and passing of new bills where appropriate.
PNG cannot continue to adapt foreign-introduced laws which are not workable in our country.
PNG need to amend the laws that best suits our setting and systems of governance.
The current government is changing and amending some of the laws governing and regulating our natural resources where PNG has been forced to be spectators and receive little benefits under foreign-introduced laws.
Citizens have been marginalised, suppressed and oppressed under foreign laws.
Therefore, the current government is on the right track.
On the same note, it must also amend or introduce laws that will best suit our political and government stability.
We have a native Prime Minister in James Marape who is passionate about the welfare and benefits of the citizens.
It’s the courage of real leaders to introduce new bills and amend existing laws instead of ruling the country with ignorance to capitalise and gain personal benefits on weakness and loopholes by conspiring with foreign owned businesses.
Despite political gossip on social and mainstream media, the current prime minister and his government are more transparent and doing a fantastic job.
Though citizens may not experience new infrastructure, introducing and amending laws and putting corrective measures and tightening loopholes in our governance system is what we have been lacking.
Therefore, the Marape/Steven Government is on the right track and need ample time to make more legislation amendments and introduce more bills that will enable quality developments for citizens.
