O’Neill govt supported

Letters

THERE is much talk on the impending vote of no-confidence (VONC) against the Prime Minister Peter O’Neill.
It is the prerogative of any member or members of parliament to pursue such cause.
As a public commentator, my views are that political stability in government is good for consistent deliverance of government development plans and programmes.
When O’Neill came into power in 2011, he fought with the system (courts) tooth and nail to secure government and political stability.
Many of us continued to oppose him on those actions but while fighting the system and the courts, he schemed into grand scale development agendas and plans.
The government introduced the ideas of celebrity events such as pacific games and the famous 2018 Apec meet.
These celebrity events were used as the reason to develop Port Moresby city infrastructures.
O’Neill knows that building and developing roads and bridges in this country is the way and the only way to transform national growth.
Critique and criticism is an inherent nature of mankind.
This occurs for the reason alone that individuals perceive things different to their world views.
Criticism are indeed healthy for take, review and challenges but criticisms at times must be evidence based and substantiated.
There is no perfection to people. If a person or a head of government is working for a common cause, than let him or her do the work.
There’s no rocket science to development definition.
If a PM is working, let him work regardless of the allegations, rumors or perceptions but then, all these allegations must be supported with evidence.
The law of evidence is fundamental tenet to law and carriage of justice.
And the office of the Prime Minister belongs to the people and if that office holder is delivering for its people, than let it be.
