Where is the blueprint

THE country’s 8th Prime Minister and his government is now recording more than 100 days in office.
This government hasn’t picked-up from where the previous government left. And I believe, the same to so many other projects right around the country.
I dare say weekly because during Peter O’Neill’s reign there was newspaper reports of projects and services being delivered every week. The O’Neill government was of service delivery because people voted and mandated for that very purpose.
Let’s recall back the catch cry, ‘take back PNG, a rich black island country’ has no context at all.
What are you trying to take back and how can you make this country a rich black island country?
For the record, PNG was never on the brink of economic collapse and the international financial ratings were attractive enough to lure international investors.
This government is fostering policies that ignore the simple fact that PNG is part of the global community.
Since this government was not mandated by the bulk population of this country, they have dismantled the country’s opposition where check and balance of the government comes from.
For the sake of empty rhetoric witch hunting exercise, this government has also appointed some members of opposition such as Sir Mekere Morauta and Bryan Kramer. I support Belden Namah to seek interpretation of the high court in which the 8th Prime minister been elected.
People in the rural hinterlands of PNG are missing the presence of the former O’Neill government and can easily see through the rhetoric.
People of this country still with your government, O’Neill.
