As are Papua New Guineans, we accounter problem, learn from our mistakes and will correct it and will move on to be brighter. No doubt. Proud Papua New Guinea.
These things happen when we have politicians that are corrupt and have ignored the peoples needs. I still don’t wish for us to be under Australia. We have a lot of work to do by ourselves before we can compete with the world. “By ourselves”.
I do understand that high taxes,limited employment opportunities that resulted in this. I do understand that this was an act of survival. But I just don't understand why burn the shops down? Tomorrow where will you buy food? This shops too pay huge amount of taxes and are struggling. They are also providing employment. Oh Papua New Guinea. When will we have some common sense. No wonder they keep on calling us primitives.
Actually as an Australian I think what’s been happening in PNG is a direct result of exploitation by multi nationals in particular mining companies and using those influences to bribe and corrupt public officials. And, not just politicians. The PNG people are not the culprit. They are the victim of their resources.
The vast majority of the looters are unemployed settlement squatters that Don't want to work and just took advantage of the gap during the police strike

Hi friend No, this had nothing to do with other countries. This is an internal issue. I'm a PNG resident living here in a rural town ship out of the capital Moresby. The PNG politicians are all incompetent. The liers & they're greedy. Yet PM still blamed the police for the violence. He doesn't seem to tell the PNG locals about actually transpired. PNG politicians are idiots.
Well answered by the gentlemen. It's not just an issue of pay cuts and high taxes but of high inflation and unemployment that has built over time, culminating in what we saw on Wednesday. The people have had enough!
High inflation is a global issue, not a local one, we don't manufacture goods in PNG , we depend on imports, it's a shame, the government must take responsible and assist business houses who have suffered
@@Northernranger-vm9efeven if you manufacture goods yourself don't forget the raw materials may still be imported. It takes time to build a country but you need some good leadership and understanding of the people. Don't expect Rome to be built in a day.

That was exactly the cause.

Spot on Anthony, thank you for highlighting the underlying root issue which is high inflation and high unemployment. A glitch in the payroll system is only a mere scratch on the surface of all the inherent problems we face in Papua New Guinea.
The real issue that triggered it is yet to be explained by the government. Whats the cause of the "glitch" and where did that money go. Is it in the consolidated revenue or purposely saved for something else and exposed by the people. Jan 10 2024 is a Black Wednesday for Papua New Guinea. 15 to 20 deaths and many more injuries.

Actually tax cuts is an added spiralling effect to high inflation and high unemployment rate thus causing massive chain reaction to looters who stormed into household named shops including Asian run shops and bakery to be ransacked and burnt down to ashes. Remember that the festive period just ended and its the first fortnight huge pay cuts on public servants taxes. What an unexpected sporadic and massive looting,ransacking and burning down of buildings and property stolen worth in the millions in the city of Port Moresby,Papua New Guinea. It's tarnished a bad image to investors abroad to come to P.N.G. as the New Year 2024 has just commenced into the second week when this incident occurred,period.TA!🤔
The government of the day can't be blamed in mention for the disorderly results of opportunists gentleman. The matter at it's worst eventuated from the nation's internal security who went on protest over a technical glitch that resulted in a minor cut in certain public servants pay. Not everyone was involved and the issue is minor in nature. PNG still upholds the peaceful democratic reputation regardless of the law and order issue. The matter is being looked into and resolving measures are imposed at present to restore and rebuild the ruins. Normalcy should be effective in the near coming future. The government of the day can't be blamed by any means and that's for certain.

Every one including me we are ready to break the law. If there is no order in our internal security than this is what we can achieve. We are responsible for our own country. Stop playing the blame game to the government as this could have been resolved already if its been addressed in an orderly manner. Unemployed youths can reason out things better off.
Well prices of food globally affected not PNG alone..
Well done Sky for Employing this Lady. How Strong is she after the Hell She has been through. I thought China were supposed to be helping them.. They probably helped Stir Everyone Up.
Australia must stop directly subsiding the national budget but put money in areas to create direct employment to address the huge youth bulge and massive unemployment and rising poverty.
they need to track/follow the money its has to be accountable not just handed over done and dusted thats how you have corruption ffs ask that onel wheres the dam 500mill gone to given by oz tax payers ffs🤦🤦
It was the Papua New Guinea National Glitch day because of government high Tax policy 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
great reporter. this place is dangerous !
ah high prices and unemployment. This will happen all across the world. It wont just be a PNG thing. Too many greedy men and women who have too much wealth while others go hungry.
As a gift from Australia we can offer up Peter Dutton to our PNG friends.
Great idea, Dutton is a proven performer in a crisis. Unlike Albo who is a complete dud!!
tough love from dutton lol
Spot on Anthony, thank you for highlighting the underlying root issue which is high inflation and high unemployment. A glitch in the payroll system is only a mere scratch on the surface of all the inherent problems we face in Papua New Guinea.
Ahhh high inflation and unemployment causes looting..
I think I might be a cultural thing. Thug mentality. Me ism.
Prime Minister James marape needs to step down.
vote him out follow the constitution rule of law not bloody street laws
The real issue that triggered it is yet to be explained by the government. Whats the cause of the "glitch" and where did that money go. Is it in the consolidated revenue or purposely saved for something else and exposed by the people. Jan 10 2024 is a Black Wednesday for Papua New Guinea. 15 to 20 deaths and many more injuries.
This prime Minister is speaking in tongues
hes doing his best hes been voted as pm of the most corrupt nation inthe south pacific give him time to get the slate clean matey
Computer error?
Yeah sure it is lmao
been hacked i reckon by an entity who wants to distrupt the progress
Too primitive for change..
Good camera work there.
Defo needs a raise.
THE COMPUTERS DID IT. Can't wait till The Australian Sponsored RL Play Home Games.
Did Australia provided the computer software ?

I wish PNG is still part of Australia.
So do many of the New Guineans I suspect.

The peoples of Papua New Guinea - ready or not! - had 'independence'(sic) foisted upon them, half a century ago, by the administration of the Granddaddy of Woke, Gough Whitlam.

It should have been.
The incompetence of Michael Somare greed.
The people never wanted independence.

If Australia people where smart they would do the same

If PNG was part of Japan than Australia. PNG won't be a undeveloped nation.
James marape Papua new guinea no shame begging prime minister... now the whole world knows who he is...
come on he just starting to make a difference let him do his job cant blame him taking over a corrupt country ffs
Actually tax cuts is an added spiralling effect to high inflation and high unemployment rate thus causing massive chain reaction to looters who stormed into
household named shops including Asian run shops and bakery to be ransacked and burnt down to ashes.
Remember that the festive period just ended and its the first fortnight huge pay cuts on public servants taxes.
What an unexpected sporadic and massive looting,ransacking and burning down of buildings and property stolen worth in the millions in the city of Port Moresby,Papua New Guinea.
It's tarnished a bad image to investors abroad to come to P.N.G. as the New Year 2024 has just commenced into the second week when this incident occurred,period.TA!🤔
Well said brother
The brother spoke truth.
The government of the day can't be blamed in mention for the disorderly results of opportunists gentleman.
The matter at it's worst eventuated from the nation's internal security who went on protest over a technical glitch that resulted in a minor cut in certain public servants pay.
Not everyone was involved and the issue is minor in nature. PNG still upholds the peaceful democratic reputation regardless of the law and order issue.
The matter is being looked into and resolving measures are imposed at present to restore and rebuild the ruins. Normalcy should be effective in the near coming future.
The government of the day can't be blamed by any means and that's for certain.
I was wondering if there are people who actually watch these videos, these types of videos are trending in the most watched ones Nobody can interfere in anyone's life!definitely, probably, I suppose, I guess there's a chance I'll be a trend someday?
Nice video ❤
Such chaos and calamity. Maybe the Australian dollar should be considered as the currency of trading in PNG moving forward from here.
PGK is strong and swapping currencies won’t benefit either
I know Cheng Lei is on holiday, but I hope this kind of reporting continues.
Especially with some inspirational stories of bravery and resilience coming out of the chaos.
Might not happen now since Australia has already issued travel warning. Normally means Aussies on the ground stay put at the Aussie High Comm compound, Yacht club and general town area.
Good Health and Blessings.
Stay safe everyone.
Please sent the Austrian security to PNG please
Europe is too far
Austrian?

Yes it's a Sad day 😢 and I think it comes back to the Government of the day..."Wake up call as the Women said to better manage the country"
'for a country that actually has a lot of mineral, natural resource wealth but the goverment isn't translating that wealth into real services for people'
Lady Roslyn Morauta speaking on health care. Video: 'Seeing hope in Papua New Guinea'.

Be honest and direct to who imposed the high tax income...Point to your current government lead by Marape..that's all...
As a Papua New Guineans, we accounter problems, learn from our mistakes, correct it and move on to become brighter in future. No doubt. A proud Papua New Guineans.
Influx of people into the city, unemployment and opportunist are the three main culprits...
Accurate insight by Anthony
And these knobs want a NRL team...
Not the first & wont be the last.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm still awaiting for the white day...
Based on economics if Australia was selling/exporting to countries with supply and demand chain's and was putting up the money bank Rolling Pacific neighbours by way of our dollar there dollar then another's dollar this would be an issue.
Would like to see if there is a trade conflict.
Free trade and fair trade agreements being followed and monitored .
What is the currency conversion rate of Papua New Guineas money against our Australian dollar.
Example we can't even keep up with the cost of living.
So if you had to pay our prices there WOW.
Not on all things and not by everyone.
We have this from here and we have this from there.
The haves and have knots.
Looks 3rd world
It.s shameful and sinful
What's the use of the Australian Police presence in PNG??????
You have done absolutely nothing but driving around in Posh Vehicles and living on High Cist Apartment.........you have been here for decades and you have done absolutely nothing except to for other intentions
As a citizen PNG 🇵🇬, concern,why this happens,tax, but citizen PNG should not take advantage of this issue, coz most people are unemployed, why kill and rape, citizen, you are not in the city to do crime and criminals activity,city is for jobs,, developing,, money,,if you are not invited in the city,go to your village or province to develop your land, staying in the city doing nothing, every body has a place given by birth rights, please developer,think before giving rights to the citizens to take responsibility or action, concern citizen PNG thanks
It is a black day for us.
