This man is stripping all he can out of #PNG, & boasts a political career full of lies & broken promises. Justin Tkatchenko has invested heavily in a compliant Australia & is building a mansion in Brisbane he can flee to when required https://t.co/YlFiu7t7DK

This can never be justified, spun, repackaged as anything other than cruelty. If Tharnicaa and her family were home where they belong she would not have waited 10 days for medical treatment. Release them now #hometobilo

Much of PNG’s exported timber – worth more than US$620m in 2019 – comes from special agricultural business leases, the controversial land leases which were declared illegal in 2016 but mostly continued to operate regardless.

“Just give me 15 minutes,” an AP journalist pleaded over the phone with an Israeli intelligence officer. “We have a lot of equipment, including the cameras, other things,” he added from outside the building. “I can bring all of it out.”

What good is education if doctors kill women? What good is development when women are tortured in the capital of our city?

As another #PNG woman meets a violent death at the hands of not ruffians but her 'respectable' husband, Michael Kabuni makes a passionate plea to men to stop the cold-blooded murder: "The conversation must enter the sacred halls of the Hausman"

“Nobody wants to work anymore.”

Nobody ever wanted to work at all. We wanted to be productive, be creative, be part of a community, be supported, be validated, and have the time and space to truly rest. No one actually wants to trade in hours of their life to “earn” necessities.
