APEC PNG

This week is very interesting here in Port Moresby as we are hosting the ever famous APEC Meeting consisting of 21 countries. The nation has been in preparation for this event 5 years ago when PM accepted the invitation to host the meeting.
Well I am more interested in what the common everyday people in PNG think. I know there are mixed feelings but overall you can feel the excitement and the positive energy in the air. Some folks from outside Port Moresby have come up with their own theories that something bad will happen to the nation, others are wondering if APEC is the name of a person visiting PNG 😊. People in the nations capital are thankful for the roads and CCTV's put up by China Aid. All in All I am thankful for the Chinese Government for investing in PNG and really bringing a huge change to the city. This face change has given Port Moresby a real modern and contemporary look. There will always be negative sentiments from critics and skeptics and naysayers but hey am grateful for the government of China for the support that it is providing to PNG and for APEC has it puts PNG up on the world stage.

Memoirs of an Entrepreneur (Pricing)

  Pricing is something that most of us take for granted. Am not sure if you really think about price apart from when there is a price increase. Have you ever wondered how people price goods and services and what should be the correct way of pricing your items. If you price too high you will loose customers and if you price too low then you will not make a profit so there is a place where you need to come too rightly to price items. As a christian there is also God's pespective on pricing. The book of levitcus is where God instructed the Isrealites on how to price items 26: 14  And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another:  God is very clear he does not want us to oppress another brother by putting our price too high that they struggle to buy our item and if they do they forgo other necessecities that they need in life. When you are pricing your good or service what is the first thing that comes to min...

Memoirs of an Entrepreneur (Faith)

  As a christian, business owner how do we live our life as a christian and at the same time trade and do business in the community. Do we seperate God from what we do and conduct our business strictly seperated from our faith.  God is the greatest business man he incoporated business into the daily lives of the Isrealites. Today we hide God from our board rooms and put our faith away when it comes to professionalism. However I want to encourage christian Papua New Guineans to live life as a christian the same as you would in church and home and as how you would run your business. What is the secret to over coming our daily challenges in business. I would say the first and formost challenge would be how do I generate revenue? How do I bring customers to buy my goods and services. How do I make money? In my experiance the first thing is to take it to the Lord in Prayer. Before you react before you pick up your phone and speak to anyone take time to pray and when you pray listen...

5 Steps to A Debt-Free Life

 Reposted with permission from KCM....... If you’re done living paycheck to paycheck, making never-ending payments and being subject to lenders, it’s time to take these 5 steps to a debt-free life! “Receive the power.” That was a recent  word of the Lord to Kenneth Copeland  concerning the debt freedom of His people. He continues: “The power to get wealth is THE BLESSING of Abraham, and it’s in you right now. Don’t look to the outside—it’s in you.” Glory to God! Living debt free is possible, and it is God’s will that every one of us enjoy a prosperous life. If you’re facing a small debt or a mountain of debt, know this: There is no condemnation. If you are in a debt situation, get rid of all condemnation and go to a place of faith—because you are on your way out! There is no question that it is God’s will for you to live debt free. His Word says He will make you the head and not the tail…and bless all the work of your hands…and you will lend and NOT borrow (Deuteronomy 28...
