'Millions saw the apple fall'

Millions saw the apple fall and thought it was just an old fruit but only one man asked why which led to the Theory of Gravity and men landing on the moon. It only takes one curious mind to change the world.

If you want better results, you need better answers.
If you want better answers, start by asking better questions.

Multi-Level-Marketing of Niche Products in Papua New Guinea: Hop Rocket and JM Ocean Avenue

Introduction Papua New Guinea has some of the poorest social indicators in the world. Despite over 10% increase in the annual GDP (2012: 15.4%, 2013: 16.2%, 2014: 18.7%, 2015: 24.7%), PNG is not significantly progressing on its development indicators (Millennium Development Goals). There is essentially no transformation industry in PNG and the country is highly dependent on imports. Moreover, most people live below the poverty line, wages are low and there is a lack in social protections.

Low income households in Papua New Guinea typically exhibit low or low-moderate levels of financial competence across all financial domains and activities.

Writing that makes a difference: an author doing his own thing

JORDAN DEAN Jordan Dean has not only been quietly writing short stories and poems and publishing them using CreateSpace for a while now, he has also been helping other authors do the same thing.

From Firewood and kerosine lanterns to Florescent Tubes: A self-help Development Initiative for a Rural Community

I typed the name of my birth place "Iyaupolo village, Papua New Guinea" on Google and this response appeared: Your search - Iyaupolo village, Papua New Guinea - did not match any documents. This doesn't surprise me because this tiny village is devoid of electricity, basic health, education, water supply and sanitation services. Nor is there any signs of wharves, bridges, roads or houses built of corrugated iron and timber. Time has stood still for my insignificant village, unknown to world because it hasn't produced any politician, prime minister, or influential figure.   Location of Iyaupolo village   Forty (40) years after independence, my people in the rural parts of Fergussion Island, Milne Bay province are still living with realities that dates back a thousand years.   While we huff and puff about water rationing in Port Moresby, my people in rural Iyaupolo walk a fair distance, daily, for a...
