How media portrays PNG

Its funny how the media around the world focus's on the negatives of PNG and very little on the positves such as the tradition, the people, the environment and the uniqueness of the Land.
I was talking to someone today about Papua New Guinea and all they could talk about were the raskols who walked around with guns killing people, the corruption, the 'rubbish education'..

Huh?? Is this really only what PNG is about...NO!!! There are so many other unique things to Papua New Guinea than you think there is..things that you would'nt expect to see in other parts of the world..This is what I was saying to him...It was actually his first time to hear all this which made me realise that the is the media portrays Papua New Guinea as a 'bad' , 'dangerous country...Well yes it can be dangerous (like many places around the world) but it can also be an adventure...a chance to explore different cultures and learn about their traditions and 'daily life' ....The media shows great BIAS towards Papua New Guinea and actually gives it a bad name..(which is also a disadvantage to the Toursim industry in PNG)..

Dont Judge a book by its cover....(Dont judge PNG on whats shown on the media...its not all what you think it is)
Get packing
and get your butt over to Papua New Guinea
Catch Mulai
