- The Village: Sean Dorney returns to Papua New Guinea, where he was a foreign correspondent for many years. Now suffering from motor neuron disease, it may be his last visit.

When he was a correspondent, he fell in love with the country. “It is one of the most interesting countries in the world”, he says, citing its tropical forests and its prominent rugby tradition. "In a country that speaks 860 distinct languages, rugby league is a great unifying force." Now, despite his illness, he returns to the village where his wife Pauline was raised. Sean’s relationship with Papua New Guinea hasn’t always been easy; he was once deported for his reporting. But he wants the world to know more about the country, from its World War II history to China’s increasing influence. "Frankly, I'm appalled at the lack of coverage”, he says. He hopes his legacy will help to bridge this gap and bring the country the global recognition that he believes it deserves.

Always a legend. Your clear voice always will reverberate in our memories. Thank you for everything you have done for Papua New Guinea.... Farewell Sean Dorney.
Good on you Aussie folks for your positive documentary compared to our local media's and a couple of individuals abroad who painted a false impression of this country..Thank you. PNG so beautiful 😍..
He was the first Aussie Expatriate to captain PNG's national team the PNG Kumuls in 1976 and being deported in 1984 and returned in 1987 and did his job as ABC's Foreign Correspondent as Pacific Correspondent based at the Australian Broadcasting Cooperation's Port Moresby bureau.
This is by far the BEST DOCUMENTARY VIDEO I've ever come across about Papua New Guinea. After watching this and I am in tears....SEAN you are a legend. Thank you bringing out the bright and best side of PNG as whole for the world to see. God bless you and your family.
I met him and is wife fixing doors and windows at his house. Him and his wife were so sweet. I didn't realise who he was till weeks later
Sean Dorney the legend...Peace❤💪
Sean Dorney: a wonderful man whose work opened my eyes. So very well done!
What a beautiful story. Wonderful and enjoyable to watch. I love such documents on how low story and it is history. Thanks for your story
Honestly, this video gladens my soul to the extreme. PNG,brotherly Africans, beautiful people, culture,and homeland. Please leave remarkable souvenirs for the people ,for your wife's sake. I love the people.
One of the best video ever about Papua New Guinea. It was your family trip to touch base with your wife,s people from Manus island but you touched base with the rest of the nation. As a Papua new Guinean I thankyou and your wife for your contributions to this nation. May God Almighty reward you both and many blessings to your children and their children. God bless
Thank you for touching my heart love from Mackay Queensland Australia from a Papua New Guinean
Thank you, Sean Dorney. Some of us really love reading your report that only for a few can read about the good and the bad of our country PNG
GOD PLEASE HEAL THIS AMAZING PERSON
Wow. I love this. Now, four years later, Sean’s still alive, yes? I’m just researching and reading on him elsewhere. No mention of a death date, only birthdate. The prayer group must have done something. The whole ceremony looked so powerful.
Normally I don’t like the idea of foreign Christian missionaries coming in and “saving” indigenous peoples (I know we can’t change what’s been done in centuries past), but it seems the people of PNG balance Christianity and their true knowledge of nature & life & the universe pretty amazingly. I think the combination of the peoples’ energy and the entire congregation really did something for him, health wise. Those women and young people crying over him. Amazing, and it wouldn’t matter one’s religious views to be in or near a congregation like that. That gathering of people in one place creates physical energy, electricity, synchronicity…it must have given Sean’s body a boost. I hope he’s gone back again to PNG. Nothing could top a ceremony like that though… meanwhile, Pauline had quite the expression during it, she was like, “uhhhh what?!” She’s hilarious. “You’re conniving, forget birthdays, you’re never home, inconsiderate…” about her husband, to her husband!
❤❤❤❤❤ Beautiful story. Love it as a papua new guinean.
A beautiful and moving documentary.
Papu Sean and Mama Pauline, ...Respect and Salute you both 🙏
Great respect for you, sir...
He did not offer that's bulshit. Australia offered 20million for the refugees
Sean Dorney, The Legend
Woo wonderful respect
🙏 😇 Thanked you for sharing your story
🙏 God bless you
Great story 👍
Wonerful video. I hope to get to PNG later this year of 2023.
Beautiful
Interesting..
I was waiting to hear of west Papua
PNG is a sovereign state of its own. not WP. but they are Melanesia Pacific Islanders.
"Substance influences" a well said notion in association with PNG existence Sean! Provety cannot strive. One should take note of your documentary.
,
This documentary is realistic and well represents PNG better than many of other coverage, mostly negative. just to reinforce let me say this...unlike in the West, our mother land have not been taken away by the state, which facilitates the corporatization of native traditional landownership. Many tradtitional land in Africa has been gone cheaply to the westernthe capitalist under this process. The world know for sure what is now happening is South Africa as a consequence. PNGans now still own fertile traditional land which we share among our family and clan members equally. it is the source of our wealth. With it we live. Then we work the land and look after flocks on it and gladly have a balanced meal on the table at the end of the day. Thats why you wont hear on Western Media about hunger and homeless in PNG. We have free fresh water also if you like. Poverty according to UN is about money. do you eat money? if not, think what money buys for survival. PNGans say we have it all.. proud to be PNG.
Land of plenty..
Amen 🙏🏾 🌿 😊
Sean Dorney is such a great man. I grew up reading, listening to, and watching his thoughts.
I heard of the locals helping the Australians, by carrying the wounded and their gear during WW 2. They were called the Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels, because they were so friendly and saved lives.
Now that I see this documentary I can see how friendly, happy and loving the locals are. It would be great to meet them one day.
I hope that the greed of man never extends its destructive force to their territory and they can live in peace.
And when it comes to Anzac Day Australia never mentions or thanks us
@@annastarciacollins663 A hard truth my dude. But that's the way it is for us
What a love story. Sean Dorney, you're a legend. I am sure my people will respond warmly when I take my kiwi family to png for the 1st time this year.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Everyone's welcomed here in PNG
Sean Dorney you did well not only for your relatives in Manus Island but as a correspondence you reports for Papua New Guinea has always been in depth, fair and professional. Well done Sean. Live in peace. God bless you.
Love this guy, a truelly unique Australian-PNG local. May God bless his soul
Fantastic video Sean! I've grown up watching you on TV in PNG..you've always been fair and truthful in your reporting of issues and events in PNG.
I was a missionary kid in SHP PNG. I miss it, and can't wait to visit again. I totally agree with the correspondent who said, it is the most amazing and accessible country in the world. PNG people are such good people, they will be my friends forever.
That's pretty wholesome. It makes me feel pretty proud
Which part of SHP?
I'm from SHP
Where in SHP?

🌴Amazing. I've always wanted to visit PNG !!🌴
you are most welcome to PNG
Hey sis.... please come its beautiful and we are very welcome people.....
Sean Dorney, what a legend!!!
No, he is a deceived man. Money is a curse. Economics is bad.
@@je-freenorman7787 I disagree. He is not a deceived man.
@@lifeinpapuanewguinea Unfortunately, its not up to you. He is clearly deceived, as he thinks economics is real and/or important. Its actually backwards. He is, his own worst nightmare that way. Deceived by Religion and the Crown. Most people are. Money has no value.
@@lifeinpapuanewguinea Do you know where the name Papau New Guinea comes from, or means? Do you know where (old) Guinea is?
@@lifeinpapuanewguinea BTW, I never said he was a bad man, I just said he is clearly deceived. Which is truth. Not a good idea to deny the truth. Thanks.
This is truly touching and amazing. Thank you Sean for your service to the country and truly revealing to the world what PNG is all about
Amazing PNG land of the unexpected ❤️🙏... groups of people found in PNG..are .. MELANESIANS... micronesian... polynesian... Abroginal people..
we r a nation of fascinating people, melanesians, naturally blonde melanesians, micronesians, polynesians n Aboriginals too. Come n see us live in peace n friendly beautiful enviroments owned by ourselves n we share what we f with each other, making sure no one is hungry. The best way of life, our life is ruled by kindness n not what Aus media reports.
This is one of the best story i have watched about PNG. Especially foreign journalist reporting only negative image of this country. Thank you Sean and your beautiful wife Pauline for sharing your love and true story of this great and loving country PNG. God bless you🙏..
The string band music and song is the highlight... Sean Dorney the HERO and LEGEND✌✌🙏🙏
I find the cannibalism comment very stereotypical.
Sean, tears flowed freely from my eyes with this Tulu String Band. U r the only person who reports fairly on PNG, we also know ourselves as a nation. There was NO cannibalism ever. Just report correctly pls?
THEY IS NO WIDE SPREAD POVETY , we have free food and drink here what do you mean?
This was so beautiful. I can't wait to see my home country again, it's been 11 years.
Sean Dorney You are a legend!
kokoda trekking crew yeah my working family oohh I miss everyone back there
Thank you mr Sean Dorney I always heard reports on Radio ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) when I was in junior high school in Jayapura, west Papua 1978. You are a legend when people in West Papua want to hear news at the border.
true love see no colour
❤ bikpela respect lo yu🙏🏾 thank you
What else can you say about PNG. Its a place beautifully made from God! Amen
Hi Sean what a great story and you are truly the real Papua New Guniean home grown Journalist.
This video came to me when I enter You tube. No one told me about it. I just want to watch the first minite and skip it but it turns out I'm watching it to the end and off course with few tears. Great video❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
So touching. They really love you. I wish i could be loved like that in my lifetime
Love and respect this gentleman.
Beautiful documentary. Had me in tears at the end. Absolutely love my Papua New Guinea and its beautiful people 🇵🇬 ❤️ No matter what...
I would give anything to go to PNG. They seem like incredible people
The best story of you twos . A good connection to png..
You are a great mentor & educator, contributed immensely...
wonderful report
Hello Papua New Guinea. I'm a Man living in the Philippines, Please welcome me. I'm here to Advocate on supporting Government and Justice.
Sincerely Yours, Christ King M.T.
Good and awesome reporter!
They live on subsistence farming thank goodness we were not nomads hahaha
Amazing.
God bless the couple. Good to be back home in Manus.
Good people still exist in this planet
This is nice.....but the fact is the men are beating and killing their women in PNG. Maybe there might not be much of it in this village but it's hard to feel such joy when so many young girls are being raped and women being hack with machetes. This happens in Port Moresby. Let's have more information about how to protect these mothers and daughters. More prison jail time.
Turning PNG into a prison island won't improve the quality of life.
It hapeens everywhere , please don't point fingers..Peace
Killing and rape happens everywhere
People/children go missing in Australia
Kids are raped and molested
They just make a big deal about PNG
Something happens in Australia everyday
Mr Dorney you are well remembered especially when you were playing Rugby League for my team Paga Phanters in Port Moresby in 1976. You won the grand Final that year and your were a tough half back. Please take care of life.
Thank you Sean. We love you! God bless you wantok. 🙏
What a legend? You lived it and breath it. Thank you so much for your love and service to PNG.
Best documented I had your ñame thank you didn't know you married to PNG.
i've noticed that they all have big noses

Beautiful hearted people

I can't hold back my tears as he says goodbye maybe for the last time
The hair🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘
So beautiful and l am in tears watching.
Mama Pauline, you're a true Papua New Guinean, a true Manusian! I am proud of the way you speak about your people and your culture.
The best and the most heart-throbbing documentary I had ever seen.
Sean Dorney is the best journalist known back then and we the Papua New Guineans salute you for the well-documented video. It could be your last and the most remarkable journey of all time.❤️🇵🇬
Sean, an adorable man, married to a very beautiful woman. I am broken down as I watch you both visit Manus at this age.❤🙏🙏 Thank for your commitment and contributions to PNG.
Enjoyed this... God bless you both and may Gods healing grace be upon you Sir, and may Gods will be done with your illness, for Gods ways are not ours Amen.
