Thank you Enga Lenge.

I for one am fully supportive of the idea.

Sometime ago, that same thing was proposed here. There was a rush of ideas and when it was realised that some of us were overseas, who want to be part of and contribute to the group as well but can not make it, the thread sort of died down.

And I thank you for raising it again.

I put my hands up when the first proposal was made and I put my hands up again. To start something that is unique and done with good intentions for all Engans.

Even though I am overseas right now, I will be returning to PNG in 2010. I am volunteering my time to start and mantain an internet group for the think tank idea. I will use Yahoo groups to start. Members will join by invitation from other members and will be approved by a group of moderators. I started and currently run two internet groups for PNG medical Drs. Members are in PNG, Aussie, UK and USA. We commmunicate daily via our group website and members receive postings in their email. This group as been very active and we have been instrumental in pushing for better working conditions for national drs.

What I am saying here is that we need to establish the group now with members and Yahoo groups is a good place to stat. It makes communication between members easy and can mobolise the members where ever they are to a focal point at an appointed time for a meeting when required.

Please do not get me wrong. I have no interest becoming a politician but I am interested in politics because politics govern what I do.

I leave it here for your comments.

peace

Sure.

They can communicate between themselves as well as post messages, ideas etc etc for all to read, comment and contribute.

The thing with organising such groups as that there has to be a core group of committed individuals who are the engine room so to speak. If we keep on talking about how good an idea is without taking action, then it is just what it is: a very good idea. Some one once said " The tragedy of living is not that we will die but what dies in us while we live".
