Rondon Ridge Hotel

 Last November I spend a few days in this beautiful part of the Country. I went up for work but decided to take a day off and spend on the site and explore the surroundings.

Rondon Ridge Hotel is a spectacular place to stay in Mt Hagen if  you are visiting Mt Hagen whether as a local or an international visitor. It boast a spectacle panoramic view of the Waghi valley below. It is nestle on the side of the ridge looking down on the city of Mt Hagen. A luxurious beautiful setting in the middle of a rural landscape. It boast beautiful apartments with wide views in the evening looking down to the valley below. Driving to the site is like driving in the middle of the forest and suddenly the hotel comes into view. Remote and isolate but accessible to good internet and mobile network. 

Rondon is a sister hotel to Bensbechs and Karawari lodge. It has hosted some world famous people in the likes of Mike Jagger yes from rolling stones and David Beckham former Manchester United player.

If you want a real getaway for a peace of mind to rest and recuperate than this is the most ideal place. They also organize tours through Trans Niugini down to villages and to visit other places in Mt Hagen. You can do that either through the Trans website in advance or at the hotel reception once you get there.

I just wanted to recuperate spend some time in prayer and reflect on the word.

They have scenic bird views an animal farm and a bush trail if you want to go for walks around the hotel setting. The staff are very friendly and hospitable and it is one of the safest place to stay.

I said and quote "it was like you are in heaven looking down on earth" truly a breath taking scene at dusk just as the sun is setting.

My Mother's Story (Mercia Paliou)

On this International Woman's Day, I wanted to share my mum's story on her journey and her aspirations in life. To also give us a glimpse into what life was like back then and what they did to build the young PNG nation. I would not be where I am today if she did not first embark on her own journey of education, career marriage and life.   My mother's journey began in her village of Dogur in the Dagua LLG of the East Sepik Province. She was born on the 6th of September 1947. She already had 5 older siblings and she was the 5th born with 2 others after her. Born to parents who were subsistence farmers their lives revolve around fishing, gardening, hunting and gathering food to feed the family. A typical village day would consist of women going to the garden, to work on their vegetables patches whilst the man would go hunting/setting traps for bandicoot or fishing in the small creeks, rivers or the sea. Their stable diet is sago so each family has their own sago plots in th...

Toana Dei & Meri Blouse

On April 28 1978, the government declared that Friday should be set aside as a national dress day.  Citizens were encourage to wear their cultural wear to work or school. The day was referred to as Toana day. The thinking behind that day was to encourage cultural embracement and initiate a national wear which in time will take on its style and become the national wear for contemporary PNG.  Toana is from the motuan language 3rd widely spoken language in PNG and it means a symbol or a sign. A fitting word to signify the day. I am taking up this space again to feature one piece of unique clothing that has come to make its mark in PNG known as the Meri Blouse.Little did they envisage what the meri blouse would become to PNG woman.And meri blouse was introduce by Missionaries to help cover bare breast woman in the colonial days. Highly criticise as shapeless and without form created to hide the beautiful curvy body of Melanesian woman meri blouse has stood its time and held it's ...

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...
