Subject: THE BEST AND THE WORST OF PNG RIGHT HERE ON THIS FORUM

The people I know in PNG are just simple people who work hard. They are the true PNGeans to me. They are good people. They are the best part of PNG. They make PNG what it is.

But this forum is just full of nasty people threatening each other and acting crazy. Why is that? Why is it that most of the people on here don't seem to resemble the people I know back home?

If some people tried to act the way they do back home like they do on here they would get beaten up or worse. Some of the things said on here could even get a person killed back home. That is the reality of the PNG that I know.

It seems to me that many live overseas because if they spoke like this back home they wouldn't last very long. I am amazed at the threats on here. If someone threatened someone back home like they do on here they would be begging for bad things to happen to them.

So in a sense I'm glad the people who act like that on here are not back home. You would just cause trouble and just get yourself killed.

I used to think that this place was a way to be in touch with the real PNGeans that I remember. But I don't believe that anymore. Many of you on here are nothing more then rejects that couldn't make it in PNG.

You know why people in advanced education want to stay overseas? It is because they couldn't make it back home. Most of you people want to make up your own rules and live how you want but that doesn't fly in PNG. There are rules in PNG and I see every one of them being broken on here.

It seems that people leave PNG as PNGeans but they come back as something else. They think they are somebody but that doesn't work back home. That's because the real PNGeans back home don't put up with people who make believe they are something they are not.

Look at the WF and the people who run that. They don't even live in PNG. They are off in New York somewhere. niugini.com? Where is the .pg that is supposed to follow that. It isn't even a PNG domain. People want to come on here and threaten people and say "this is PNG?" Is it? Who ever wrote that wouldn't last two days in the real PNG I know. Those types of people have to ride around in cars with dark tinted glass and live behind razor wire. They are not the PNGeans on the streets or the ones in the village. You wouldn't make it a week there.

I'm very sad because I came looking for PNGeans and most of what I found is a bunch of wannabe's. Sure you people may have more money then most people in PNG. You may have better cars and houses but in order to get those things you gave up what you were. So you have become nothing more then the sum total of your possessions . Go back home and stand on the streets and tell everyone how great and powerful you are. You wouldn't last.

The biggest exception to this is the people on here from Bougainville. These people love their island and all they want to do is be able to go back and live in peace. I share this feeling with them. It is because I see that they were willing to kill and die for who they are that makes me go to their side. "The tree of Liberty is watered with the blood of Tyrants." A great man said that. A man who helped create the country the world calls America.

But so many others on this forum have lost this desire. They have become so consumed with the worlds goodies that they totally lost what is really important. The only good thing about this is that the people back home can see right through you. They would never follow you and I'm glad for that.

I just want to ask those of you who fit under all of these things I just mentioned to remember this. When the time comes for PNG to move towards its' destiny don't try and stand in the way or you will get run over. You know who you are out there that I am talking about. You're the one that is really pissed off right now about what I have written. You're the one that will swear at my words. And you are the one that is hopeless and is no good for PNG or even yourself.

You traded in what it means to be PNGean and now you resent those who will not accept you now because you have.

I don't know if anything good will ever happen for PNG. But what I do know is that nothing good will ever come from the people on here who act so crazy.
