The irony of Mt Hagen

All pictures @MALUM NALU

I was in Mt Hagen, the Western Highlands capital, just before Christmas and there was one thing that struck me.
The place has unarguably the best agricultural land in the country, some of the richest and hardest-working people in the country, but it has one of the worst law and order problems in the country.
Even taking a walk on the streets of Mt Hagen is risky.
This is something that must change in 2014.
