@SharmanEvie you said it well. PNG may always hold Aussie to its heart but is open to China's love. Mend the relationship when the water is still calm.

PNG Parliament passed laws to create additional 7 electorate with about 10 weeks left before National election. Why this rush? No clear electoral boundaries and awareness, no common roll update, no administrative setup. It smells from the start!
Congratulations EMTV. You're both #PNG’s leading TV station & worst employer. Government-owned EMTV sacked news director Sincha Dimara (pic) & 24 news staff protesting its censorship of stories about a businessman facing criminal charges. ‘Bad’ Vlad Putin would be proud....
PNG is compromised. Infact Aussie Advisors are running the show in many gov't dept & have enough data and intel to feed their 5 eyes intel agency. @pm_nec PM Marape would have summoned High Commissioners of both countries already.
Our latest investigation, by New Zealand's finest investigative journalist Nicky Hager, exposes the reality of #Australian/#NewZealand spying in the #Pacific and it's shocking. Every small nation's sovereignty is being breached and for what purpose? https://t.co/B2nxO0ppHV
We should have joined hands like this to show support and humanity to our very close neighbour and #Melanesian brothers in #WestPapua. Shame! Shame! Shame! @EUinPNG@DFAIT
Great meeting today with Secretary Elias Wohengu from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade on the war in Ukraine. PNG strongly and unequivocally condemns the Russian aggression, calls for "peace by peaceful means" and fully supports Ukraine.
It's not the first and surely not the last. EMTV has done that 3 times in space of 4 years. Clear suppression of Media freedom and independent news coverage. CEO Leselie Vete clearly lacks leadership.
