East Sepik Governor Hon. Allan Bird raised a question without notice to Prime Minister Hon. James Marape with regards to employment situation within the country.
It's good these questions are asked to make things happen. Unlike some MPs who are just there for entertainment and laughing their asses off without contributing ideas to the floor of parliament.
Very entertaining!😀 I have had some good discussions with Governor Bird. My impression of him is that he is a very honorable and well thought out person. He thinks logically and I have always valued his opinion because I think it is an educated one. He gives me hope for the future of this Nation. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to his very valid questions. I would like to know the answer to that as well. I hope he continues to debate freely in this way. As a born Sepik I am proud to have him represent the East Sepik. Good on you!😀
Addressing the real situations are the way to help to solve current problems people facing today. Thanks so much for raising people's concern. Keep it up👍🙏
As a simple low income earner the only thing I know that the price of goods in the shops are increasing, does the government have any idea to solve that?
Thank you Allan Bird for good concerned raising questions which current affairs today many of us Papua New Guinea encountered. I appreciate you you for that.
Me wanbel wantaim defination blo wok as described by PM Marape. "Economically active and engaed Papua New Guineans; Not sitting behind a job from 8:00am to 4:06pm. That strategy has not unbundlled Papua New Guineans from it's fullest potential."
The goal of 1 million by 2027 (what is the strategy - what are the phases of implementation, which area, and can this be evaluated thus far). MSME is one area to get to this goal of 1 million jobs but how many have been created now and have succeeded. SMEs have had barriers to source financial assistance to kick-start their entrepreneurship so really, this area is struggling and has not created jobs as anticipated. Few survived and most nascent. What are other areas? i.e. New Pogera, Wafi Glopu, Newmont, Semberi, what about other industries, for example, agriculture, fisheries, logging, manufacturing, etc. There must be a strategy to back the vision mission of 1 million jobs and this needs to be spelled out in a strategic projected report, and documented to all parties so every stakeholder can work to see this fruition.
Governor is simply asking the pm for the 1million job that he and the pangu promised the people of png .and the answer is very shallow and childish..it seems like there is so much hate towards Mr O'NEIL.its not like political differences but hatred and very sad to see. we call ourselves Christian country..love your neighbor as you love your self..
Because PO is too good. Marape is no match for him that's why they are always blaming PO. PO is the infrastructure Prime Minister. There's no denying that. If JM thought PO did bad, he should be man enough to fix it, but he's worse ... and the blame game ... I wonder when it will end. Kraemer wokim go na maus pas. Stuckey wokim go and got glitched na maus pas. Na lida JM lid yet ...his fall from grace is around the corner.😮
Don Polye...what a same...you should sit down and shut your mouth in shame...the question was very clear...as a Papua New Guinean, it was PJM who said that he will create 1million jobs in his first speech resuming parliament as a PM. .. Now where is or where are those 1million jobs...PJM don't know how to answer his own words..
What a shame for PM James Marapre to make a joke for Allan Bird when there's real unemployment. You MPs are taking everything as jokes but we the people are suffering on the streets of Port Moresby, homeless, & no concern for people but they are thinking about their own selfish gains
Ranbo Paita you are at the back saying em tasol², your people (voters) in Fincherfen (Pindiu) are suffering from tribal fight since last year. When are you going to do something about it? They've trusted and voted you.
You all should leave your status and come down leave with the people. Lusim office na come out mekim wok. Yupla lukim pinis failure stap lo field operation. Lusim office na yupla sanap lo field. Policy full up na field work em nogat yet.
James its your time don't ever put mouth on former mp Peter, the governor ask you and with ministers put Peter is not in the government now. Thanks just give the answer them we people can go there find job, that SME that you talking, that is not benefit the poor from PNG, it's only allowed the people with 100s and 1000s kina, and what about the poor people in your country, please give the good, you are our prime minister, thanks may God bless PNG.
I have a little business that has not got off the ground seeking funding, I wrote to the Prime Minister twice and no reply I could have employed 8 people. Now waiting for change of Government
Hon. Member Bird asked critically valid questions. There is absolutely no reason for Hon. Polye's interjection. These questions have the potential to strengthen or destroy the reputation of PMJM and his government. That is why PM is trying to shift the burden away from himself and place it on AB to give him the employment figures for 2019. PM simply answer the questions and stop trying to be defensive.
Exactly 💯. Thank you Mr Don for the Clarification. Ask the questtions to appropriate Minister Responsible. It seems all opposition members have a hateful tone to the Office of Prime Minister. That's just bad. If you really fight for the Country as a whole, than act responsibly and ask appropriate questions to appropriate Ministeries to get the questions answered properly.
PMJM can always refer the questions to the relevant minister to answer if he is unable to provide the answers. We all want to know, as we are producing about 70000 school leavers ever year n this is a very serious issue. I suggest any Government must put in place drastic n effective policies to cut down population growth n provide enabling environment for businesses n investment to grow to reduce unemployment
As Prime Minister you should know what is happening in your country. The total population of this nation, the total unemployed citizens, the total employ citizens and so on. It seems that MPs forming government are not working together.
PM,James Marape has been traveling too much and never settled that major issues of our country, he has been on holiday too much,We the Citizens of this country blame this Tari man for all the issues of this country, Plis now time to change Power ,😭😭😭
I think the Acting Speaker is one-sided, when Opposition MP's raised their questions His Against the question. Theirs Unbalance Powers in the Parliament. Every MP's in the Parliament Represents People in their Provinces and Districts. This is Very Sad for Papua New Guineans.😢😢😢😢
Billions borrowed should build factories like chocolate factories, milk factories, rubber factories, tuna factories and let farmers produce fresh fruits such as apples, oranges etc and export. Instead of letting people go fruit picking at Aussie and give a that bad name again.
I have been listening to down stream processing for infinity. How many more centuries before we start seeing actual down stream processing for all are primary products 😢😢😢
Downstream processing and agriculture can create jobs for the vast majority of the country's population primary engaged in rural based subsistence farming.

We are talking about creating employment in the formal sector. The informal sector employment will bloom automatically if the Government provides enabling infrastructure like roads, wharves, airstrips, and market access etc to rural areas and improve those in urban areas.
