Take back our land from foreign nationals

PRIME Minister James Marape should take back our land from foreign nationals if he is really serious about taking back Papua New Guinea.
Foreign nationals claiming to be title holders over land in Port Moresby and others parts of the country are evicting Papua New Guineans settling on vacant state land.
We are not from China or any other countries but we are treated as foreigners in our own land by them.
So what does “Take back PNG” mean to Marape?
Why should a taxpayer living on state land be evicted by a foreigner?
I don’t know if I can buy a piece of land in China or other countries as I have never been outside of the country.
Many evictions have taken place over the years in Port Moresby and other centres by foreigners in the pretext of development.
They have forced taxpayers out of their homes, school children out of school and local small to medium enterprise (SME) operators out of business?
What happened to the Government’s settlements-to-suburbs plan?
Do we have a law that protects human rights?
I urge Papua New Guineans against voting in the next general elections because the Government seems to be on their side and not ours.
It is their government, not ours.
