From Tom Perry on Communications for protection: a three-minute aid pitch
Bravo Ashlee. Comms should be an essential part of every aid project, and your pitch nailed this. Just wish I'd been there to see it!
From Lisa Smyth on Communications for protection: a three-minute aid pitch
I spend my entire working like advocating for the power of communications to enhance aid and international development projects - both 'about' and 'for'. I absolutely love the way you framed and presented your argument - witty and relevant - I wish more people were brave enough to inject fun into aid conversations. Your win is totally deserved - well done Ashlee!
From Paulo on PNG Supreme Court ruling on Manus Island detention centre
Werner, John and Gerard, you all touched on the different aspects of the issue i.e. international law, respect for sovereignty and the economic and environmental effect from the detention centre. We hope future discussion on asylum seekers detention centres in the region will take account of these aspects.

From Eliminar Tatuagem on PNG’s frightening fiscal figures
A more desirable alternative could be public asset sales over the coming years done in ways to protect consumers (so not simply selling government monopolies). The MYEFO indicates the planned K2.5 billion in sales of PNG LNG assets to local landowners in 2015 has been put off – and if it does occur in 2016 as initially expected, it is more likely to be at a level of K600m estimated in the 2014 budget.

From Ireire Olewale on Ending TB requires global support
It's wonderful to see that ideas are being sought across the globe in the eradication of TB. Please also consider those communities that are affected by TB who need to be engaged as partners to develop solutions and ownership of the issues. Being from the South Fly District in the Western Province of PNG, where Australia has spent a considerable amount to combat the TB problem; underlying cultural and socio-econimc issues are probably one of the biggest hindrances to eradicating TB; this is not an Australian problem to solve but better engagement with affected communities to reach local solutions for these problems is part of their contribution to eradicating TB.
From Lalen Simeon on Does PNG rank highly for Internet porn searches?
