Mr. Mamando's superficially charged and shallow reasoning deserves this beating from the learned and astute - Dr Unage.
Mr Mamando’s blind and unorthodox loyalty to Somare in the manner he did in his article has exposed his weak analytical and objective judgment as an intellectual.

I appreciate Dr Unage for shaming and showing to Mamando that he still has more learning to do.

Great article by Dr Unage.

It is embarrasing for intelectuals to put up illogical pieces like this for the public to see. One would have thought such articles coming from well-educated persons will contain thoroughly thought-out and substantiated arguments that will inform and convince intellectual readers.

Instead what is written is baseless and fueled purely by emotions. As educated elites our role is to uphold and advocate democratic tenets that are the basis of our constitution and livelihood. We must not shut the other eye if the people we like are seen to be encouraging pratices that are contrary to our democratic values.

In the last 5 years the Somare government has been running my country like a comical outfit. It has made controversial decisions that has made PNG the laughing stock of international communities. Decisions that result in the Moti affair, NCDC Act, hastily allocated 5 million kina in the last minute to study the LPV, political appointments and etc...

The time is ripe! It is time to kick the big bad wolf (or should I say pukpuk) in the butt!!!

To Mamando Pain; Just take back what you wrote! Doesn't make sense....not an iota of sense at all.
