SEEING our MPs follow-ing the Prime Minister like faithful sheep to Alotau was very healthy for a stable government and should be highly com-mended.
Hence, I would like to point out to our Morobe MPs  that they must work in harmony to bring development qand growth to their electorates and the province as a whole.
Besides Finshhaffen, Markham, and Menyamya, whose MPs have obtained funds out-side of DSIP to implement impact road projects in their electorates, nothingof such can be said of the Kabwum, Nawae and Tewae-Siassi.
If MP Dadae (Kabwum), Vice Minister Siniwin (Kabwum) and Minister Zeming (Tewa-Siassi) really want to fight for the struggling rural folks they represent, they must demand a road run-ning through Nawae into Kabwum, and Nawae, Finschhaffen, Kabwum, and Wasu in Tewai Siassi district.
If other government coalition and PNC MPs can manage millions of kina of roads crossing provinces and electoral boundaries with supportfrom the O’Neill Govern-ment, how about you gen-tlemen?
Morobe Coastal Ship-ping Service vessel mv Lady Zeming recently bought with taxpayers’ money and managed and operated by people hand-picked by the three MPs recently ran onto the reef by a drunken crew.
It has been idle for months, losing business and costing more peoples’ money for maintenance.
Our poor folks have missed out on essential services after mv Lady Zeming was declared unsafe for passengers and cargo.Public servants, church workers, simple villagers, the sick and critically injured have no choice but to dig deeper to meet the one-way fare of K320 from Kabwum and K340 from Wasu into Lae using the eight and 11-seater air-craft of the only available third level airline.
This was the trans-portation difficulty faced 10 years ago before the O’Neill Government took office and unfortunately will remain so when the poor electors go back to the polls next year.
