  Opposition Leader Douglas Tomuriesa said he is disappointed and embarrassed over the way His Holiness Pope Francis was treated by Prime Minister James Marape over the last three-days during the Papal visit, and the lack of courtesy and respect shown by the Prime Minister. He said the Prime Minister continuously declares PNG as a ‘Christian country’ and prides himself on being a religious individual but he was surprised when the Pope was continuously snubbed by the PM over the weekend since the Pope’s arrival on Friday. “The Pope is the head of the Catholic church, the largest Christian church in the world and he is also a head of state. “PNG not only being a Christian country, but a country that prides itself as a ‘friend to all, enemy to none’, the PM should be according the Pope with the highest level of respect,” Tomuriesa said.

Business

CITY Pharmacy Ltd has introduced the Darling hair extension range for Mother’s Day on Sunday.
A local hair stylist and owner of Lavi’s Braids, Lavinia Korak, said there was a demand for crochet hair in the market but after the excitement settled, not a lot of people knew how to take care of synthetic hair.
Korak is from Enga and her shop Lavi’s Braids is located at the Unity Mall, former Pacifika Women’s Network at Steamships compound, Waigani, Port Moresby.
According to a statement from City Pharmacy, the variety of hair extension products sold at CPL stores nationwide starts from the economic variety to premium quality such as the crochet.
“Extensions can last six weeks if proper home care with warm water, baby oil and lemons can cleanse and leave a sheen,” Korak said.
“It is recommended to do a warm water cleanse twice weekly, beginning and ending of the week.”
City Pharmacy said customers looking at purchasing the crochet hair extensions and hair care products could do so at any of the CPL outlets nationwide.

  Updated 10 March 2022 Video caption, Watch: Civilians evacuate from Irpin after days of fighting devastate town Russia has launched a devastating attack on Ukraine, a European democracy of 44 million people, bombarding its cities and closing in on the capital, Kyiv, prompting a mass exodus of refugees. But why did Russia's authoritarian leader tear up a peace deal with his neighbour and unleash what Germany's chancellor has labelled "Putin's war"? He has shattered peace in Europe and thrown the continent's entire security structure into jeopardy. Why did Russian troops invade? In a pre-dawn TV address on 24 February, President Putin declared Russia could not feel "safe, develop and exist" because of what he claimed was a constant threat from modern Ukraine. Immediately, airports and military headquarters were attacked, then tanks and troops rolled in from Russia, Russian-annexed Crimea and its ally Belarus. Big cities have been shelled, neighbourho...

  May 5, 2021 Business By CLARISSA MOI THE Bank South Pacific (BSP) has approved out loans with a total value of K302 million under its First Home Ownership Scheme (Fhos) loan facility. BSP Financial Group Ltd chief executive Robin Fleming told  The National  that BSP’s first home ownership loans continued to be very popular with customers. Fleming said the bank had financially assisted more than 1,000 Papua New Guineans for their first home under the product. “The fixed interest rate of 4 per cent and terms of up to 40 years mean that the cost of borrowing has not changed for existing and potential borrowers,” Fleming said. “And a first home remains one of the most important financial objectives for many customers. “The total value of loans under the facility is now K302mil and this continues to increase. “While there is a surplus supply of investment properties, which has been accompanied by lower rentals in certain market segments, the underlying demand for home owners...
