The Prime Minister arrived this morning from Port Moresby. He is in Madang Province and is meeting with the landowners including ward councilors mainly from the Raicoast area and Krumbukare of Madang Province. The Prime Minister is coming down so low to meet with the people.
According to the Post Courier of yesterday, the PM stated on media that the Ramu Nickel Mine must go ahead despite resistance from the people of Raicoast. The Prime Minister is now like a Salesman for Ramu Nickel Mine. In doing this, he is no longer the Prime Minister but working for the Ramu Nickel Mine in ensuring no one stands in the way of the company.
What does it show and tell us if the Prime Minister has to come to the province and deal with provincial issues which the governor is supposed to deal with? Is the Governor in competent? Is the Ramu Nickel Mine dictating what the Prime Minister should do?
It seems that the Prime Minister is out of his mind. He keeps hammering home that the people of Raicoast are the ones delaying or stopping the operations of this project. He is so ill informed that he cannot even hear the message from the people of Raicoast where they are saying, they are not stopping the operations of the mine however they simply don’t want MCC to dump waste in the sea. If there are land-based alternatives to dump waste then use them. Dumping of waste into the Raicoast people is simply a NO, NO!
