O’Neill, PNC are still in it

INCUMBENT Ialibu-Pangia MP and former Prime Minister Peter O’Neill knows that with a clever strategy, an opponent’s numbers can count to nothing.
A great military strategist once said: “Victory is reserved for those who are willing to pay its price.”
For the love of his country and his people, O’Neill lays down his honour, pride and whatever political ambitions he has, to save what good is left and bring back decency and order.
It reminds me of the heroes in history where certain members of the nobility risked their lives on the battlefield.
Being kings of the people with a warrior tradition, it forced the monarchs to personally command soldiers in the fight.
Like Leonidas and his valiant 300 Spartans who stood their ground to defend the honour of Greece at Thermopylae, O’Neill and his noble heroes are out there prepared to give it their all, all in the name of civilised, intelligent and visionary leadership. Leonidas was king of Sparta, an ancient Greek city that pride itself on its war culture known for training the best warriors of the time.
Leonidas was the protagonist of one of the most important battles in Greek history.
Together with his valiant Spartans warriors, he participated in the battle of Thermopylae against the vast Persian army.
With Leonidas’ tenacity and perseverance, the Spartans and the Greek allies managed to block the strategic points.
They defended the pass of Thermopylae where they fought for three days straight and killed about 20,000 Persians.
Wave after wave in attack in the form of rigging the election, duplicating ballot papers and boxes, spending millions to buy votes and using the government machinery to destroy O’Neill’s People’s National Congress Party, PNC has survived.
PNC did better than all other government-allied parties.
PNC will again count on its tenacity and perseverance to stand the test of time and the daring and craftiness of its leader Papua New Guinea still has hope.
