Don't you understand. Anything that comes straight from the candidate's mouth is highly likely to be ******** - empty promises just to string you along na grisim yu inap bai yu votim em. Stop being so gullible. Information coming from witnesses and third parties may not always be accurate, but are nearly always more believable than any mauswara coming out of the candidate's mouth. After you hear a bunch of witnesses or third parties, sharing stories about the candidate and his way in life (both good and bad things), that's how you come up with a fairly accurate picture of the politician. NOT by listening to the mauswara of the politician!!!!
Any PNG candidate that has a web site worries me a lot because it sounds like they'll be more comfortable at a computer in POM for the 5 years they're in office than going out, doing the hard walks, and meeting with the majority of their voters, the village constituents.

@ PLEASE, yu got it all mixed up. Having a web site is in a way, informative and there is nothing
to be worried about.Sam Basil has a blog, has he not delivered? We should be happy as yu and i or
anyone else for that matter will be well informed of the developments taking place province wide
if we are not living in the province.
Every candidate runs with policies to support their quest. We seem to be blinded by the the
common lamb flap policy for some candidates for far too long. Yumi still bow down lo ol white man
na tok yes tasol, maski ol wrong. Kaikai blo displa,lukim Goroka town? Districts are worse.
If Jon Yogiyo is not the man, well its an open race. We will reap wat we sow, regardless of
who actually wins the seat.

EHP do not need Money Vs Money Politics. We need a leader with wisdom who can use his leadership attributes to help people and the province.However, I'd like to bring forward Bire Kimisopa.. Any for or against? I am neither his cronies, supporter (past election) nor beneficiaries, I'm neutral but I charge this man to be capable both for the provincial and the nation as a whole.

@Les Pinis,,, thats why I raised the suggestion as 'for and against' for a quality discussion. I will speak on the national scope but not on Goroka District perspective. I know he may not be doing well in Goroka and that is why the Goroka people dropped him in the last election. However, on the nationl scope when he was the internal Security minister, he provided a best political and economical platform for the ECP to operate in PNG to reduce crime and corruption. Very vocal and speaks with wisdom in both National and international issues. He is of the very likes of Rabbie Namaliu... I reckond he is a PM material, should he be given the change.
Jon Yogiyo is one that cares for people. He has seen his people live a life that has not changed in the past 40 years.
Has anything changed for people in the rural areas.
EHP is so stupid that they like to ruled by outsiders - Like Kila Smith. I say EHP are confused and do not understand there is some one like Yogiyo who really cares for grass roots people.
Other Province are developing mines, there is only one tiny mine in EHP.
Coffeeman is needed. Coffee pays the bills, keeps children fed and for the wealthy ones - additional mistress are welcome.
A lot of things have changed with people in the rural areas of EHP. For example, abandoning traditional clothes that could be made for free and instead buying second hand clothes that some from Australia and result in PNG kina going to enrichen Australians.
Secondly, the mobile phone. Many EHPers even in more remote areas, now have Digicel access, which allows more EHP wealth (kina) to leave the province and go into the hands of the Irish billionaire who owns Digicel.
There are far more feeder roads in EHP than there were before which allows trade store goods imported from overseas to be sold in more remote rural areas. Buying those trade store goods is another great way for PNG kina to end up in the hands of the foreigners who made those products.
Yes, there have been many changes. And you want more of the same?
For your info, Pacific Helicopters is far from collapsing. I work @ Kutubu and know for a fact they have been enjoying a nice big fat contract with Oil Search for the last few years. A couple of businesses associated with the good Govenor which have blossomed just recently that immediately spring to mind are Rodcliff(construction company which has taken over the sealing of the highway from Covec) and Bose Security (getting alot of contracts for guarding buildings around town, much to the dismay of other locally owned security businesses - you'll see them guarding the Gouna centre in town)
Hmmmm.....yeah I know, I couldn't give you much insight into the financial details of the Pacific helicopters contract as I am just your every day Tom, Dick & Harry wokman, but I'm sure Oil Search wouldn't be giving them peanuts to fly personnel & equipment and have helicopters standing by on location (I counted 5 in their yard yesterday).
Even if it is their only contract it must be a decent one by any standards. Oilfield contracts usually are :)
Hello All Apos and fans of Goroka Secondary School
There has been some well orgainised awareness by ex students of Goroka Sec to build the fire ravaged science lab.
So far, we had a open day at Ela Beach Inter, a dance at Country Club and individual donations to a "trust' account.
Now i heard they'll be a dinner at the dynasty restaurent in POM. This fundraising activities are great however, there is no financial report out yet for the public especially the one's supporting the cause to see.
Can the committee headed by Mr.Edward Omenefa disclose how much has been raised so far?
They voted for Mal Smith and made him more richer eveyday her serves their Governor.
EHP votes should ask, IF MAL SMITH WAS RICH WHY WOULD HE NEED TO THEIR GOVERNOR.
The simple answer, as Governorm MAL SMITH can:
- cuts deals for his companies
- access to new investors
- access new contacts to assist his projects
- use office of Governor to use laws in his benefit
- move money into tax havens, with not limits
Simply put, there is alot benefit for Mal Smith
Vote someone who cares of his people. Vote your own kind,vote for 100 blue blood PNG MAN.

Noero should have tried politics long time ago when he was in his prime PHYSICALLY that is. I mean I love the guy for all the great things hes achieved as a business man.
His business wisdom is unquestionable, but if he was wise in other aspects of his life as he is in business, he would not trouble himself by jumping into PNG's political bandwagon. Its stressful, dangerous, it can smudge and wipe your good reputation in a flash; unless you have all the energy to put up with all these headache and trouble, its not worth the price trying to be a politician.
If you want to contribute to society, its probably more fulfilling to support a charity or some other NGOs whom you are convinced deserve your time and money.
There are few really good NGOs such as Youths of Tomorrow (www.youthsoftomorrow.com). This organisation's main focus is youth development, starting from fourth graders to young adults ( under 20s). They have some very powerful values they want to teach young children who of course are the people who will be running our country.
THis is the same sort of advice i like to give to alot of people out there who want to contribute to our country and think politics is the only way to do that. Politics to this day has fail; its a failed mechanism. If we want to rebuild our nation, we have to invest in our children now. A stark example is Japan. The Japanes rebuilt their nation after the second world war by investing and developing their young generation, teaching them to be better citizens and take ownership of their country and develop an attitude and hunger to compete on the global stage and be the very best. The programs the Japanese taught then are still taught today form fourth grade to twelfth grade.
Step our of the illusion that politics is the only way to contribute to your country's future. Get creative and invest your money, time and effort where it will make the real difference.
Record show that those who spend their entire life in POM and come back home during election time, stands a zero chance of wining. Weather they win or lus, they will still go back to POM.
I am a Kafe and proud of what Norio has achieved. He is a successful business men respected by all in the country. He has made BSP to what it is now and as a EHP, I am proud of that and see BSP as my bank. However, he has got nothing to show in Kafe and EHP . What has his works ( village, community and district level ) got to show for me to vote him. He can have the national influence but it is the influence and association in the village, community and local level that matters.
Dont be fool because of money and prestige. There are potential local EHPs who have spent their entire life in the province who have their works to show, are capable of leading the province. This are the people we should look for.
Mangi Moresby will always go back to POM. Those of you elites based in POM, please dont kam and fool us na noken toktok planti tumas. Please Concentrate on your bread na bata. Leave politics to us the men on the ground.
Holdowa what you said is true and bless you for that. Most of us are idiots especially we forgot our social science or history classes and do not learn from Japan. Indeed the Japanese invested in their childrens education. Here in EHP and PNG parents are still struggling to get an descent education. I for one spend all my money on education and have produced many fine man and women serving in various capacities now. I am not a rich man, just a public servant got kicked out for being honest and did mission work and educating my own children is kind of shear hard work but I enjoy it.
Sad to say in order to get assistance is "it is whom you know" and several application to memebers offices end up with "come back next week". My situation went beyond my financial capability so I approached Mr. Smith and he has really helped me out. The problem is we are not approaching him or the office of education in EHP is working in asolation that I do not know. From my recent experince I found Mals to be an approacheble person however reading about what others are saying about him on this blog is different to the person I met and could understand me and bail me out.
The education office in goroka needs to revampt its operations with the political head and advise him. He only knows how to make money and spend it wisely I think thats why for very successful people they have peolpe who say bad things because they themselves wish they can be like him. We are unique in our own ways.
The only thing we can do is rather met the person and get to know them. Some of the candidates running for the regional seat have some bad reputations that I have not right to diclose here but it is us to get facts and figures right and vote right. It is many peolpe that amke the machinary run effectively for now em tasol///////
EHP will vote money men only if they want;
- bad roads,
- Over priced food items;
- still live like their grandfathers in grass huts
- start to wear grass skirts
- eat one meal a day
- cannot afford to send child to school
- no law and order, rape and steal others coffee
EHP need to think DO THE MONE WITH MONEY CARE ABOUT THEM
They will give promise that will make people feel good, take your vote and DO NOTHING.
Yogiyo will do what he says. A TRUE LEGEND OF A MAN AND 100% BLUE BLOOD EASTERN HIGHLANDER
Now we are looking for Asians, my Goodness. After 27 years independence EHP still belive in white skins, its a pity. After being colonised by whiteman, we should have been way ahead and any asian, indians etc should be under us. Now they have surge over us interms of business oportunities etc and now they want to be involve in Politics to Govern us. This is not their birth right, its ours for goodness sake.

What you've conveniently failed to mention is that the upper highlanders have been the most corrupt MPs in PNG history. But I guess that unpleasant fact doesn't actually bother you, does it? Corruption is so deep in upper highlanders it can't help but pop out again and again in your leaders.
Maybe before you criticise others, better start reading the Bible yourself!

I've suspected this for awhile but now I'm convinced. The Jon Yogiyo supporter IS Jon Yogiyo. Jon Yogiyo is no stranger to the internet, he has his own web site www.jonyogiyo.com.
You think he hasn't been here on scape? You think that if he came here and Pastor Tommy, etc etc wasn't him that he would have bel hat at them spoiling his name?
Pastor Tommy IS Jon Yogiyo and Jon Yogiyo is longlong!
Pastro Tommy, if you and Jon Yogiyo were different people, Jon Yogiyo (who uses the internet just like you) would be on this board immediately to denounce the childish way in which you promote him and make him look foolish. But if it's the candidate himself making himself look foolish, of course he wouldn't get on himself, but carr on in his own little dream world, never critisiing himself because he reckons that he's making himself look good on the internet!
Not only that, no one would promote a candidate so consistently day after day, week after week, month after month except for the candidate himself. No one else would waste time at it, no one else would have that kind of motivation except maybe a very very close blood relative.
Finally, no ture pastor would have the money to waste on the internet like you do. But a coffee buyer like Jon Yogiyo would!
PASTOR TOMMY, EVERYTHING ADDS UP - YOU ARE JON YOGIYO!

Pastor Tommy your days are numbered.Because you use the name of the Lord God Almighty character in Vain. You are making Mockery of Him. The creator of the universe and mankind. You must understand He his the creator and you are is creation, speck of dust under his fee. He gives life and take away the life of the wicked. Thank you that you are not killed instantly, because of his eternal grace. But you continue to be ignorant,arrogant and put him to test. Thou shall not put thy Lord your God to test say the Lord himself. But you did it!!
