The future of PNG looks bleak yet the leadership in the country talks big about big budgets plans, positive economic outlook, year of implementation and vision 2050. To be or not to be misled time and again, read to the last word of this article as I have discussed some of the very disturbing political misconceptions of all time I have observed over the years about the political leadership that has been running the country for the last 38 years. The people of Papua New Guinea are slaves to their political masters with an uncertain future. Papua New Guinea is a political corporation. The country is not an Independent State of Papua New Guinea. Now more than ever, the nation needs to redefine and fully understand the political leadership that has been running the country since independence. After 38 years, the nation has remained somewhat worse. The only achievement the leadership can be proud of is – the country has remained intact despite governing a geographically scattered, multicultural and ethnically diverse population of more than 800 language groups. It is however, shadowed by the civil war in Bougainville. Maybe the leadership should be proud of the localization of the workforce in the country, especially in the public sector, public institutions and State Owned Enterprises (SOEs). But these too have been running down and most are used as cash cows by any government and normally headed by their political cronies over the years.
