Fight corruption with new mind-set

IT is important to find new ways to fight corruption.
So what can we use to fight corruption?
It is not education because it is producing undetectable pen robbers.
It is not the law. The country has law. It is not the procedures.
The procedures are already in existence.
It is not the organisations or institutions.
We can have all the laws, procedures, logistic and equipment but those who are committing and benefiting from corruption cannot fight corruption.
The problem in the fight against corruption is the mind of the people.
Wherever there is corruption, a new mind-set is needed to fight it.
The new mind-set should be able to see it as a wrong against society, stop committing, benefiting, condoning or facilitating corruption in all its forms.
The new mind should be able to enforce the laws on corruption right from investigation, prosecution and adjudication.
The new mind should apply sanctions to make corruption a very high risk activity with no means of profit.
A new mind-set should make corruption highly unattractive with dire consequences.
Until a society reaches a state of a new mind, all it will be doing is to be reacting in various ways to corruption.
That will be the norm until a new mind-set arrives.
How can a very corrupt society reach a state of new mind?
Not through condemnations, passing new laws or establishing new bureaucracies.
After having all the laws, we shall say if we have this other law then we can be able then to deal with corruption.
When the society is corrupt, existing laws should be enforced to deter prospective criminals from engaging and old criminals from re-engaging in crime.
Without deterrence, there is no war.
There will be only slogans, lip service, news headlines and all those things which go to deceive the victims (society) that something is being done.
The coalitions should be against palliatives, cosmetics and wage a war to take effect in our country.
We should stand for deterrence which leads to a new mind.
I am ready to offer myself and my expertise at any time it is required to fulfill the slogan “take back PNG”.
PNG needs a new mind-set!
