INTERESTED, ENTHUSIASTIC VS COMMITTED

Patriots,

We had our very first CHANGE ADVOCACY WORKSHOP on Saturday 20th March
2010. Topics covered include the rationale behind the creation of
PPNG, its Mission and Vision, its Core Values (5 Pillars) and the way
forward and PPNG methods of change advocacy. We also discussed some of
the major Challenges that we will be facing as an organisation and a
movement of change. There was a good turnout by students of UPNG and a
couple of NGOs were also represented.

Apart from methods that have been thought up and are being pursued by
the currently actively involved members, there are still many methods
to devise and implement in respect of taking our message to the wider
community, and affecting and sustaining REAL CHANGE in our country.

Related to the actions of the movement, one of the major challenges of
PPNG is REAL COMMITMENT of players and members. Many express
enthusiasm and interest but are not committed. Commitment to a cause
requires that a person buy into the MISSION and VISION of the
movement. Once you grasp and appreciate the mission you may decide
that this is something worth your commitment and participation. If not
you are free to be an enthusiastic but not so active supported as we
do require that as well. Everyone has something to offer in this move
and we encourage you to come forward, find out what Patriots PNG is on
about, and decide whether to commit or not. ITS ALL UP TO YOU.
Being committed also means some SACRIFICE so please consider all the
pros and cons carefully.

To all you who have shown more than mere interest and enthusiasm, on
behalf of the directors and executives of PPNG I would like to thank
you for that. This campaign is not about the organisation/movement
itself. It is about finding a way to truly Change our Great Country.

Heavenise Week…
