Kind leaders stay quiet and let their actions speak 😴😴

He bought a ship and also installed a roofing iron machine to help his people. That’s a true leader who genuinely cares about development and improving the lives of the community. 👏

A great champion with a big heart for his people, working hard to bring real change and better services to everyone.

JM is a leader who keeps his promises until they are fulfilled and delivered to the people. Unlike some Members of Parliament who misuse public funds to build their own businesses and buy trucks just to attract votes, true leadership is about delivering real services and development for the people — not political tricks or personal gain.

Hon. Jimmy Maladina 💯👆

Papua New Guinea’s tourism industry has massive untapped potential, yet many of our leaders continue focusing mainly on oil, gas, and mining — resources that will eventually run out. Instead of only chasing quick money today, we should also invest in industries that can sustain our people and economy for generations to come.
Look at places like Dubai. They used their oil wealth to build a world-class destination that now attracts millions of tourists and investors from around the world. Tourism became one of the biggest drivers of their economy. PNG can do the same if we start prioritizing infrastructure, security, airports, hospitality, roads, and promotion of our unique culture and natural beauty.
This picture is a perfect example of the kind of opportunity tourism can bring to PNG. That stunning aircraft is a Gulfstream business jet owned by TMNN Manager LLC, flying all the way from Las Vegas 🇺🇸 to land right here at Gurney Airport in Alotau 🇵🇬❤️
That is not just an aircraft landing — it is proof that international visitors are interested in our country. When tourism grows, it brings high-value visitors directly into our provinces, creating income for local guest houses, tour operators, transport services, markets, restaurants, cultural groups, and small businesses.
PNG is blessed with some of the most beautiful islands, cultures, oceans, mountains, and traditions in the world. If we invest properly in tourism today, we can create a sustainable future for tomorrow.
It’s time for leadership that thinks beyond temporary resource projects and starts building long-term opportunities for our people. ✊

When you have money and things are going well, many people suddenly become your friends like they are your real family. They surround you from every direction and always want to be close to you.
But when you have nothing and stop making money, it’s a different story. Many will ignore you, disappear, and turn their backs on you.
That’s the reality of life today.” 💯

Jimmy Maladina, the Esa’ala Member, has shown true leadership and vision for his people. Back in the early days when two brothers contested in the National General Election, his brother lost while Jimmy won the seat in Parliament. From the beginning of his leadership journey, he started sponsoring students from Esa’ala District, and today many of those students have become teachers and successful people serving their communities.

Hon. Jimmy Maladina is known as a silent hustler — a man who keeps his plans quietly until he makes them possible and surprises everyone with results. Throughout Esa’ala District, he has delivered important services and development projects that continue to improve the lives of the people. Because of this, the people of Esa’ala proudly cheer for him as their great leader.

Yesterday was another historic moment when he brought the huge ship MV Lorraine to the seas of Milne Bay Province, shocking many people and proving once again that he is a leader of action, not just words. His love and care for his people can clearly be seen through the support and opportunities he continues to provide for the district.

I personally met Hon. Jimmy Maladina during the passing of our beloved sister, and from that moment I saw that he is a leader with a genuine heart for the people, especially those who need help the most. His leadership continues to inspire many people and challenge other political leaders across Papua New Guinea to truly serve their communities.
Hon. Jimmy Maladina keeps his promises.
He works silently, achieves his goals, and then proudly shows the public the results of his hard work for the benefit of his electorate and district.

Thank you, Hon. Jimmy Maladina, for your kind heart and commitment in using your district funds to build this vessel until it finally reached the seas of Milne Bay Province. You have shown the entire province that you are a champion leader who believes in action, development, and serving the people wholeheartedly.💯🙏

To those collecting our photos and reposting them in Milne Bay and Alotau groups, please appreciate the hard work behind them.
While many were resting at home, we were out there covering the MV Lorraine launching — collecting stories, capturing photos, recording videos, and working hard to keep everyone updated.
It’s disappointing to see some people taking our pictures and creating their own stories as if they were the ones on the ground covering the event 🙄
Media work is not easy. Respect and credit the people behind the camera who sacrifice their time and energy to bring the moments to the public. 🎥📸
