"I call on other right thinking

Papua New Guineans to put your heads together and let's move this country before the next election and elect right-thinking Papua New Guineans." - Letters Post Courier 5 May. It is the great pity of the free press that the sentiments and enthusiansm of the letters writers and editorials does not motivate and inspire the people to do something. It's the same back home. If the letters writers had their way the country would not have killed tens of thousands of Iraqis in the hunt for the promised but never to be found weapons of mass destruction.

Billions of dollars of aid money is not finding its way into the lives of the people. Stupidity and corruption must be measured in equal amounts.

If Australia and the EU are stupid enough to give me money they shouldn't expect accountabilty - that's racist and says they don't trust me.
