 PNG is a beautiful country unlike any other in the world. It is blessed with natural beauty and resources, and the Europeans know the potential this country possesses, but our own ignorance and greed has led us astray from the path to super power. The problem we have is culture; our culture is diverse, therefore how we perceive things can differ from region to region. Our culture, both from the coastal to the highlands tells us that we must defend our land and people. Culture is the reason we lack development and progress. In order for PNG to progress, we must introduce the presidential form of government, allowing a broader and more effective government to run the country. The current prime ministerial government is not one that truly represents the people of this land. Let us find newer and better ways to change PNG because the majority of the population resides in the village and do not know the importance of change and development.
