Ramu Mine Protest

I was really and truly irked after reading todays National newspaper report on the Ramu Mine Protest. Much respect to the landowners who forced a stop work on the Chinese developers.Why? Our Chinese 'guest', and I use that term loosely, think it's okay for dominance and discrimination. WHAT THE HECK!!! This is NOT a sweatshop in China and you will not violate our human rights.

To add more insult to injury, Mr Wang the mouth person of the Chinese Developers, indirectly told our people in a round about way that we are baboons, therefore, we are unfit to socialize in any capacity with his ignorant posse. Stop using the pretext of bloody "culture and eating habit" to seek approval of your blatant segregation and discrimination. YES, it's simply apartheid, surmised under the guise of a separate mess, accommodation and support facilities at the work sites. We are not fooled by your flaky explanations!!!

We cannot allow foreigners to come into our own country and treat us like second class citizens. They are our guests in Papua New Guinea and they need to assimilate to OUR CULTURE AND OUR EATING HABITS!!!!! How rude. We must have a zero tolerance policy on such matters if we must dissuade future insults by foreign corporations who want to benefit from our country BUT are not willing to give us the respect we deserve.

On the flip side, and also our greatest downfall is our "bureaucracy". Our politicians will gladly turn a blind eye for the right price. It's inevitable, we will always be subjected to bullsh!T coz our pollies are a bunch of dickheads.
