  The master of the road, boss with no match, it moves with such ease, Conquering rough terrain, with such poise and please, It navigates the bad roads, and floods with no fear, And crosses raging rivers, with no care or tear.  With wheels that grip and an engine that roars, No obstacle too big, no river too wide, Through mud, rocks, and dirt, it embrace it all with pride.  With each turn, a sense of awe, As the boss moves with grace, defying the law, Its power and strength, a wonder to behold, A mystery unraveled, its story told.  It serves as a rural ambulance, a savior of lives,  Ensuring aid reaches where it thrives,  School supplies too, it delivers with pride,  To educate young minds far and wide.  Police officers depend on its speed,  To maintain law and order with it like the force of law,  Rural farmers, too, owe it their gratitude,  As it transports loads of coffee bags with fortitude, sustaining their family household inc...

reminiscing the string band days    This is the Langema string band of Simbang village, Finschhafen with their song "Ai Ngamoa"    Enjoy listening!  

  The sun rises on a brand new day, Brings light to chase the night away, A promise of a fresh start is here, Hope shines bright, no need to fear. Birds sing a song of joy and peace, Nature's music that will never cease, The air is cool, the breeze is light, It's a morning that feels just right. Hope blooms like flowers in the spring, A ray of sunshine on everything, The future looks brighter than before, With opportunities knocking at the door. So let us embrace this new morn, With open hearts, let hope be born, For every morning brings a chance, To live, to love, to dance.

Battle of Finschhafen The Landing at Scarlet Beach on the 22nd of September 1943 marked the start of the Battle of Finschhafen, which saw Australian and American troops perform a pincer attack on the town of Finschhafen. This battle, and the subsequent counterattack was part of the Huon Peninsula Campaign that took place in New Guinea during WWII. The Japanese had been expecting an Allied attack on Finschhafen since July 1943, and Japanese high command had deployed a mixed force from three divisions, totalling approximately 5,000 men in a series of defensive positions around the town. Allied intelligence underestimated this force, as being only between 300 – 2,100 strong. On the 22nd of September, the Australians began establishing a beach head at Scarlet Beach and its surrounding coves, before commencing the advance on Finschhafen. Advancing through thick jungle with limited vehicular support, the soldiers were often forced to carry the stores themselves due to a shor...

The tragic story of Boship and Jenelyn... who's lesson? Unfortunately, Boship can't learn from his mistake, he now faces the brunt of the law. So is our belove d sister, Jenelyn, like many before her, sadly they no longer breath. Then who's lesson is it? Definitely, the protest march and all the energy gathered and forged at this time against GBV should not go in vain. There is a saying that goes, "A wise man learns from his own mistake but the wisest learns from other people's mistake" Young people, especially the unmarried. (no offense to the married) Boship's case maybe very extreme but it started somewhat as a usual harmless situation. A boy and girl, flirting and then decided to go the extreme mile on a path that demands mutal commitment of trust and understanding if it was to sustain with love, joy and happiness. The end story tell us otherwise, they were not ready for that commitment. Such examples are not new. I am sure yo...

What is the root cause of Domestic Violence? This is a question that needs serious answers to it. Others may have their perspective on it, but this is my take. And I will say, itt goes back to the matters of the bedroom. The place where the sacred ritual that forges the union is not understood well. The needs of a man and of a woman in the bedroom is not the same. The lack of knwledge on these leads to so many complex issue and DV could be an effect. here is a piece i shared in 2016... ................................................................ "Sex: The Neglect and denial" ................................................................ I shared this a lot with few of my married brothers and would like to share just a little here. I learnt this from a book. It surprises me that its news to most of them. Basic, deep serious stuff. Hausman talk, i'd say Almost most marital problem find its root cause back into the matters of the bedroom. Couples can bl...

Is it Adam's or Eve's fault causing the fall of men out of Eden? My take, ADAM Why? All instructions were given to Adam not Eve What to do, what not to do What to eat, what not to eat Adam was expected to teach, mold, nurture and protect Eve  Reading the story, until Adam swallowed the fruit, God moved Even when Eve spoke to the snake, took the fruit, swallowed the fruit and gave part of it to Adam God did not move until Adam bite it and swallowed it It was Adam's action that moved God, not Eve The issue was Adam's response and reaction And when God came down He first called "Adam, Adam where are you?" Not Eve, why did you get the fruit? because, he placed the responsibility to protect, teach, nurture on Adam so he checks on Adam. Brothers, uncles, papas our reactions and action to a woman's emotional nature has the power to make or break... We have a responsibility to nurture, teach, mold and protect ////////////////// ...
