TAKING OWNERSHIP

Hi Patriots,

I’ve probably mentioned a few times before about taking ownership but id like to make a brief mention again. (This cannot be mentioned enough)

PPNG is preaching change: not in laws, or systems, or government systems or economic strategies and the likes…but a change in the attitude of us the people of Papua New Guinea. The message is simple: EVERY PNGean holds the key to changing this country. We all need to take personal responsibility and make the change.

A classic story of building the nation is found in the Book of Nehemiah in the Bible. Nehemiah leads the people of Jerusalem in rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. His leadership and the cooperation of the people leads to the task being completed in an unbelievable 52 days! Not even in our current superior technology could we build a wall around even a suburb as small as our NCD’s Ensisi Valley in that many days. How did they do it?? By the simple fact that every citizen and resident of Jerusalem took ownership and built the part of the wall that was just outside their house or within a close proximity. By the participation of every family regardless of their gender, profession the amazing feat was complete in 52 days!

IF WE COULD ALL TAKE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND DO WHAT WE CAN TO MAKE THIS NATION GREAT PNG WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. IT WILL INDEED BE GREATER.

“CHANGE WILL NOT COME IF WE WAIT FOR SOME OTHER PERSON OR SOME OTHER TIME. WE ARE THE ONES WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR. WE ARE THE CHANGE THAT WE SEEK.”—Barrack Obama

PNGEANS TAKE OWNERSHIP OF PNG!

CHEERS
