PNG politics is so gambling type while foods and services prices are in danger in price so please try be serious because you are playing with games in life of people so please be serious.
AB, you just touched on the very core of reality for most ordinary Papua New Guineans i.e. including the working class citizens who not only financially support their nuclear family but extended family as well. I hope that by displaying all those food staff can help our good PM face reality instead of living in fantasy and pretending all is ok with ordinary taxpaying PNGeans. God bless you and PNG.🙏👍
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂 Really? What are AB's polices and plans to reduce the prices on basic goods? He is making you emotional, but what are his ideas to make you happy and laugh. He has to tell us what the government is not doing, which he will do when he gets into PM's seat. At least PMJM is doing all he can to help normal working class and rural populace in this hard times.
True there has to be solution to all this problems. We're not going to stay in sorrow like this just because someone else's illustration@@hiribumadabuma6871
The simplicity of AB's inquiry regarding the notable increase in the prices of basic food staples underscores the fundamental nature of the issue at hand. One would expect such a question to elicit a direct and accessible response. Yet, regrettably, the PM appears to struggle in providing a clear and concise explanation for this economic phenomenal.
Marape, what's your hourly rate per kina, K 3.50 minimum wage that's like $1.20 Australian, minimum wage in Australia is $23.23, for a resourced rich country that's ridiculous
there is no good times going on in australia or the world theres a big decline is growth everywhere you look ask yourself who where the previous pm in png and have they done enough or misused fund then ask yourself who yu voted for
This government must see, people are really struggling to make ends meet. Government is saying they are working on this, working on that but in reality we are going to struggle until the next election. We don't see any changes that are promising. We are seeing and feeling the reality of struggle we face everyday in our communities across PNG. LOVE PNG
The government has not honoured its commitment to paying Project Fees to Public Schools, leaving schools in shambles. Parents of children in Public Schools will relate to this 😢
Hon Allan Bird, you have hit the nail on the head. A true leader will focus on the Kitchen Table where food is key. Indicator of prosperity for every family. If not improved, then our people will suffer and other social issues arise just to survive. Hon Member, you are on target, and people are with you. This is Social Protection and Protection of Human Rights. Full Support.
But one important point was missing there. AB did not tell us how he would control these price hikes when he gets into PM's chair or he was not telling us or government how best to go about on price controlling. The fact is, AB has no policy frame work on inflation control. He is just touching our nerves to get public support for him to be PM. Yumi tu noken lonlon lo power hungry game at played and taking sides.
The question was how to reduce INFLATION thats presently affecting the simple people of PNG. And it's not about continuous passing of the buck(s) to the opposition or the previous government(s). This rhetorics are so very becoming highly usual like bunch of clowns in a circus rather than MP's debating issues of both National and International significance for tangible development(s) internally and externally otherwise. It's so much said and much needs to be done for the betterment of our country PNG.TA!😟
Governor, your demonstration to support your questions where without a doubt a nail in the conscious of the Government and it's fellowship of leaders who don't see the need for change. For the PM is resort to inflationary pressures from global factors and try to justify his questions is a sign he doesn't know how to answer this simple question. When can you as PM state a time frame and work towards this time to reduce prices. Don't avoid the question, pass the buck, point the finger. The leaders who sit behind you are as blind as you to the sufferings of our small people. We need change. God bless PNG 🇵🇬
Thanks Governor. This is the foundation of our nation. Others had gone up and are putting burden on the lowely ones. Government showed no care attitude to it's nation.
Good issues raised by ALLAN BIRD, Can Prime Minister or the Govt divert the MIS-USED funds from Members COVID 19 FUNDS, the SME Funds which is for the Rich and same old Wantok family members only. Whom you Know .. Aren't we all Papua New Guineans. STOP this Uncivilized Animal Behaviour.. Helping olgeta PNG
You are right PM at one point, of a way forward for this nation.. Opposition should also provide available options to alleviate the rising prices of goods and services. Let's stop barking at each other and wasting the precious time needed to do something g good for the well-being of the people. About time the the Government and the Opposition should work together if we want this country to move forward. You can not be forever challenging each other.
Just can't understand why we have government systems.I don't know what we mean when we say that the government is for the people and by the people when actually the larger population is poor.
Bank of PNG is responsible for providing price stability in Png by using monetary policy interventions. BPNG needs to step up in its role. Govt must increase the minimum wages of low income Png people. Price controller is fast asleep, no inspectors from Govt actively inspecting/ monitoring shops to monitor prices, so businesses taking advantage by profiting excessively with price hikes. International inflation is on the rise driven by disturbance to world supply chains by 2 ongoing wars Russia Ukraine war and Israel Hamas war. PNG is a small open economy and bears the full brunt of world inflationary pressures. In view of this, Govt must immediately put in place a range of domestic inflation curbing economic measures, by attracting new foreign investment, remove market/supply chain inefficiencies, increase export volumes, stabilise value of kina, increase physical shop inspections for price monitoring, to actively keep Png domestic inflation under control. ❤😮😮😮
All if theses mentioned will only happened if Marape is ousted and new government which are economically and administratively literate are on stage, and in which case, the opposition that's is the alternate government obviously. If Marape-Ross government can't understand fully the function of consumer price index and the income per Capita in the simplest term possible in which Bird tried illustrate with the daily food for the people, then inflation and minimum wage are term new to them. If Marape joked that the opposition can't solve a simple arithmatics, then he himself can't define a simple term of consumer price index (in terms of inflation) and income per capita (in terms of income per week vs the cost of living in a week). Real amature. 😬😬
To stop corruption and bribery we need financial independence.. How can this reach country develop when the people are very poor and yet the price of goods and services is too high.If the people gets financial independence our country will also be financially independent so leader ALLEN B I hope you take the PM seat.
Inflation is blown to a level where food prices cannot be reach by the grassroots. What about subsidizing this basic needs? Simple, we appreciate school fee subsidy but you have to eat well to learn otherwise hunger will distract one's learning ability. Subsidise food prices
Prices of good and services are sky rocketing and people are struggling..only God knows our cries ,please MARAPE GOVERNMENT do something about it while it's too early or mark my word that this country it's sitting on a time boom and the clock it's ticking.....Thank you Governor Allen Bird for speaking on behalf of all the struggling citizens of PNG.
The pm and the deputy speaker are speaking about the richest black nation on earth called png. Visit tari and markham to confirm it. Ask them both what the prices of these basic food items cost in both these locations. Their own people the people who voted them into parliament are suffering too. They both have been blinded by their pride and cannot understand and see the real issue and solve it.
I have been paying school fees since 1982 when I was in High school myself and has not stopped. All this years since 1996 to 2024 I have my own children and I have been paying school fees. When the government says free education, I want to be honest that I don't know what is free education.
A Birds Question to the PM is very serious cause the snacks biscuits 1:20 is the whole sale price and the retail price is 1:50 and all other items displayed too have different prices in retail shops in the city
Prices of goods and services either drop down or up, but one thing for certain remains the same for PNG is the public servant’s pays. Something fishy ..
All I heard from Marape was "Stick a band-aid on it and it will be alright". No long term plan to help the struggling families in the country, no reduction of govt spending to ease inflation, no reduction of taxes, no plan on increasing exports, no plan on energy crisis, no plan on combating fuel crisis, no plan on combating rising crime rates.
The government's answer should centre around how to address kina devaluation as it directly causes inflation. This is my high school knowledge, an economist should correct me, thanks
Yes, kina is one causes of inflation but it's not the major cause of the inflation. You see, Kina is not on fixed rate but on flotation rate meaning that the appreciation and depreciation of Kina depends on the quantity of foreign currency in in our reserve. The more export we make and the import, our kina value will go up and if import exceed the export, this will reduce the foreign currency in our reserve causing the Kina value to depreciate or devalued. Now, if you look at the food we normally have, most of them are imported items, and the domestic manufacturers import raw materials such grains, rubber, aluminium and so forth, to manufacture finished product. So, if the high imports has caused shortage of the foreign currency in our reserve, then import will delay due payment delay leading to shortage of supplies to meet the rising demand triggering rise in the price of goods and service (inflation). The above is solely from what I learned as working as the warehouse, procurement, supply chain, and logistics officer so not from a certified economists.
The surprise that came after all the questions and the display of basic store items by the opposition and the Prime Ministers presentation of his statement was thar no opposition members were left on their seats to hear some facts presented. Most information of facts came from prominent figures such as the BPNG . Where did the opposition members go too was shocking.
I saw that PM was beating around the bush without giving any direct answers to the opposition 😂😂😂😂 Mr Prime Minister cannot answer the question asked by Allan Bird 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 It's really saddening that the government cannot do anything to help the poor people in the country
My point is this is ridiculous bringing food items to parliament. Papua New Guineans would already know what he is talking about even without those food items. Please respect the house.
PMJM is incompetent....please answer the demonstrated question asked by AB. Otherwise, just step down or resign and let another MP be the PM. Enough of the sugar-coated talks
JM other side of goverment opposition are talking fact , you stop pretending that country is okay , MPs on your side as well knew very well how country is in at this current stage , i ask all of you MPs on Marape's side to leave the goverment side and join Opposition with the vibrant leaders and change this country

This is a serious issue that's really affecting millions of PNGeans idk why it's been joked about it a National level . Totally unacceptable . The states looking very depressing .
Paying for childrens school fees or removing project fees or lifting the tax threshold does not have a direct impact on lowering inflation on for basic goods and services...... Government dreaming.....
I think we as part of the global community, we are facing inflation just to maintain the stability of the value of our Kina itself. So let us take the ownership instead blaming our very own PM 🖐️
Simple people still suffering to date as they debate the issue of inflation in png. Can our leaders state to the people n confirm that the leaders are the most highly paid persons in png whilst their voters are affected on their knees because of the terrible inflation leading to consumable item prices skyrocketing?
Mr. Prime Minister u pilim pain. Mipla ol liklik mammeri pilim pain blo inflation. I don't know if you ever eat rice amd tinfish at all. The connect png policy is nothing but a process of diverting money to their own company. Excessive government spending with no cash flow in the country is ridiculous😢.
I just had tears come to my eyes when I think of the struggle our people, especially our mothers have to endure to make end meets for their family. Our market mamas, that's why I never complain when I buy food from them even if they charge an extra for an item no one will buy. I buy it regardless to help where I can. Why do our people have to suffer like this in a country that is blessed beyond measure. The blood of every PNGan is on the hands of those who refuse to stand up for what is right and make a difference, when you can. You will answer one day
Question of Hon. AB still not answered but alot of exaggeration which is an insult to our people who are struggling. Increase minimum pay from 3.50 to maybe 20kina please to correctly align with inflation increases over a long period of time
everything we say nothing gonna happen,we need to reduce the amount of the inflation (IRC )which company s are operating in the country PNG and also the public sector , that's why company increased the cost for the item that are sold in the country, just increase the rate for all the employees in the country, as we proceed on to such a turf Time thank you and may God bless you all MP in the country PNG,
Wow what a way to make great political advantage of much economical disadvantage that we rural people are facing so I wish PM and all MPs must screen this properly for all PNGs.
the financial crisis has been going on since 08 since than countless countries have crashed png is lucky to have OZ on standby be greatful for that png oz is facing a bad crisis as we speak so list of countries grow every month png is far from the top performing opposition is conning png public as if they have the magic bullet
This Speaker should seriously be replaced! Theres is no logic in his brain, stop eating the PM 's golden lollies.
Special circumstances speaker
Exactly
PNG politics is so gambling type while foods and services prices are in danger in price so please try be serious because you are playing with games in life of people so please be serious.
Alan Bird's speech really touched my heart,i drop tears because I faced this because I can't afford it..

The PM is not really answering the question from Honorable Bird.
I think he has answered at the executive level. Running a country is not running your little tucker shop....
♥️♥️🙏🙏 Let us all stand hold hands 👐 and Pray to God, for a good prime minister to run this beautiful country for us,,,,,God Bless PNG.
We are filling the pain back at home
PMJM you are beating around the bush so try and answer Big Bird's simple question ❤
Thanks PM at least two years now, my daughter has not paid a school project and tuition fee in a public school.
You didn't pay school fee so the quality of education is dropping.
King Bird you a hero to many of us who currently struggling with this daily...mi cry ya true true...
The government has not honoured its commitment to paying Project Fees to Public Schools, leaving schools in shambles. Parents of children in Public Schools will relate to this 😢
My good Lord, we are suffering because of selfish, greedy and corrupt people. They need be held responsible in a strongest term possible.
From my honest POV Konny Iguan should be replaced by someone who is matured enough to run the house. He's very incompetent.
JMPM he dont know how to respond so how can we ask difficult question
Thanks for your work please government help us
Hon Allan Bird, you have hit the nail on the head. A true leader will focus on the Kitchen Table where food is key. Indicator of prosperity for every family. If not improved, then our people will suffer and other social issues arise just to survive.

The basic food on the table and now the prices are now rocket high
