This blog is a combination of my thoughts and experiences through photographs and videos as well as stuff I find interesting enough to share with you as well..
Hi all it's been a while since I blogged. Kinda got busy do other things and this just took the backseat, so I have more time on my hands now so I thought I'd return and write something. Alot has been happening and I really don't know where to start. But one thing that comes immediately to my mind is the recent Landowner Benefit Identification (LOBID) process that is in progress right now in the Gulf Province of Papua New Guinea. The LOBID process is an important process to ensure the landowners of the Papua LNG project are recognised to benefit from this multimillion kina project. In fact the process is underway as I write this. This is the verifying stage where all ILG lists are confirmed before it goes to the Development Forum where the Minister for Petroleum and Energy announces or makes the Ministerial Determination. An interesting time in the lives of the people directly affected by the pipeline as well as the wellhead up in the hinterlands of the Baimuru L...
Papua New Guinea is truly a beautiful place. If we keep a positive, patriotic attitude we can preserve our country's natural resources for generations to come.

One of the most biologically diverse marine environments on the planet, Kimbe Bay is home to a wealth of colorful hard and soft corals, 12 different species of marine mammals and hundreds of species of fish. In fact, scientists have recorded at least 860 species of coral reef fish in Kimbe Bay and more than half of the world's coral species can be found here. The bay's wide variety of marine habitats — coral reefs, mangroves, seagrasses, deep ocean waters and seamounts —make it an ideal home for whales, dolphins, turtles and sharks. A World under Threat Kimbe Bay is a prime target for exploitation by the destructive international live reef fish tr...
This week has been a sad week for a lonlt of people in the country and rugby league's circle with the loss of a humble Papuan rising star. He had touched people of all walks of life in Papua New Guinea and abroad. And most people talked of his humblesness and smile that brightened up the room. He was a silent achiever and had that unintentional effect of drawing people to him. I met him a couple of times through my involvement with the Rugby League World matches as a Master of Ceremony and that is what I picked out straight away. His humblesness. Now the Nation mourns his sudden loss. Below is a wonderful heartbreaking story by Lahui Ako that brought a lump to my throat as I read through. Please click on the link and read. And please come back and leave a comment or two about this story.. How A Person Half My Age Changed My Life
