Prostate cancer awareness

 A commentary by John Sowei about prostate cancer.


It's four months since I defeated the problems associated with enlarged prostate using my very own Wellness 12-40 product I developed after two years of research while going through three types of Prostate Supplements. 


Yes, for men over 40 years of age can manage prostate early if we do something about personal health..including the choices we make in life.


 Our lifestyle, our diet, the amount of sugar we take in the form of fizzy drinks, the amount of beer we drink, the amount of carbohydrate rich foods  we eat, a sedentary lifestyle, the pressures of work and family commitments. 



The mix nuts I am having with my six pack SP green beer are expensive, but are good for prostate health, boosting the levels of Nitric Oxide and Testosterone, the level of energy, heart health, liver health, high blood pressure, managing blood sugar levels etc.

 These nuts are expensive, a packet retailing between 20 to 50 Kina. If you think these nuts are expensive, let remind you that your health is your wealth.


 The money you're earning now is only useful for you while you are still  alive. 


You will not take this money with you when your journey is done on planet Earth. 


Spend money on your wellness while you are still alive.

 Prime Minister James Marape has hailed late Sir Michael Somare as a great Papua New Guinean that ever lived.


Mr Marape was invited to deliver a keynote speech at the third anniversary commemoration on the passing of Sir Michael Somare at the University of Papua New Guinea



Under the theme rekindling the dream, the commemorative occasion stressed on building on Somare's dream and construct the nation 


Mr Marape said among many ideals of Somare who held together a very diverse society, he was the keeper of the constitution 


He said if Papua New Guineans love, respect and appreciate the leadership of Somare, the best thing to do is to keep the law


Mr Marape shared his meeting with the late Sir Michael ten days before his passing that they wanted to medivac him to get medical treatment overseas


Late Sir Michael declined the offer saying he had lived his life, a very humble act Marape said 


Mr Marape paused abit obviously emotional because it was Sir Micahel who campaigned for him in Tari during the 2007 election and he got into Parliament


He said the late Somare also groomed him into cabinet and given a ministerial portfolio

Court dismisses former Simbu Provincial Administrator for judicial review


Former Simbu Provincial Administrator Michael Temai's bid seeking judicial review to reinstate him as administrator was not recognised by the Waigani National Court.

Justice Oagile Dingake this afternoon dismissed his proceeding against the Simbu Provincial Executive, the National Executive Council and others.

Justice Dingake said the aggrieved Temai did not have the legal standing to pursue his case.




Temai filed his judicial review when his contract had already been revoked in June 2022 therefore he did not have standing.

There were preliminary issues raised during trial by the defendants and among them were that Temai filed his judicial review out of time and he should have filed by way of a writ of summons.

Justice Dingake has advised Temai to file his proceeding through a writ of summons.

Temai was appointed as the provincial administrator for a period of four years  and was suspended on May 2021.

His appointment was later revoked about 12 months later.

Temai had primarily filed proceedings arguing  there was unreasonable breach of natural justice.

Nasfund cumbersome processes to withdraw savings

 What was supposed to be a user friendly process to withdraw a members hard earned savings appear to be "unfriendly".

It's a go come process that's consumed precious times.



All was good for me until at the final stage to send my withdrawal in, I was told to go and get a letter of approval from MiBank again.


Just disappointing.


When I asked why? The officer responded they need to know their main bank account for disbursement. 


Hello!

Requirements to open a bank account- MiBank

 MiBank is a growing bank in Papua New Guinea.

In my short observation, mostly grassroots and informal sector citizens are the most popular ones.

It's requirements and process to opening a bank account is very flexible.
