Central Province: A land of plenty

 I visited a good brother who teaches at Sivitatana Primary School in the Rigo District, Central Province on the weekend.

What a blessing, he asked me to collect some pork and some Rigo banana.



The drive to Sivitatana was perfect sealed drive from Port Moresby to Kwikila and then another 20 mins to Sivitatana alas there are few pot holes and unnecessary humps.


The humps are a road hazard.

Someone has to crack down on this.

People can't put humps without a notice for drivers indicating a hump.

Well why do I say Central Province is a land of plenty?

Driving past you see massive unused land with beautiful scenery.



That's the first huge asset they have.

Imagine if this is turned into commercial farm lands to feed the hotels, motels, shops and guest houses in Port Moresby.

There's already sealed road for example along the Magi Highway and you have electricity from Port Moresby pulled through.

With electricity, you can use it to irrigate farms or build storage facilities.

With the sealed road, you can transport the produce to Port Moresby.

We just got to put the nuts and bolts together and sure something realistic and workable should function.

We create jobs. We generate income from a sustainable and environmentally friendly venture.

Well at Sivitatana, there's a huge lake in there and while I was there fishermen brought huge number of catch they did and their wives will take to a road side market to sell.

The inland pieces of land are described as not too arable but what if we use develop and use good irrigation and mulch the soil a bit.

We should definitely see massive results.

Kwikila has important services and infrastructure already there like PNG Power.

It should develop into a huge town with good hospital, police stations, hotels and motels.

Attract Port Moresby residents to Kwikila.

Many places in outside provinces do not have the luxury as Central Province has-and near to the melting pot multiracial Port Moresby.

Central Province is a land of plenty opportunities.
