A good idea and I agree with you in principle.....but keep the politicians out of this. 2 reasons a) they don't give a rats arse about the tribal fights b) we don't have to do their jobs.
Further, don't be soft on warring tribes.....no sugar diplomacy will work, take some harsh measures. State should confisticate the lands of the tribes. The downside is the innocent woman and childern suffer but.....this will send a message across the province.

I suggest capital punishment to deter those who instigate tribal fights. Obviously tribal fights end up ultimately in loss of lives. The state should start executing or hanging (whichever method deem appropriate for the crime) those who murder, rape and willfully destroy properties (whether it be private or public property) of others who sweated blood and tears to obtain it legally.
Engan Lenge, in line with your suggestion, I add that the Enga elites should form working committees that look into this matter. They should advocate and lobby the government to actually implement and exercise the capital punishment law that is already in place.
It's about time the state should fight fire with fire. Whichever way you look at it if such tough measures are not in place, tribal fights will continue to exist and it is already a deterence to foreign investment and development initiatives.
It's now or never let's get CAPITAL PUNISHMENT underway.
