Papua New Guinea must safeguard its cultural dignity and identity in the digital age. Increasingly, foreign digital creators are entering our country, seeking personal gain by exploiting our behaviours and traditions to attract followers. While they profit, our people are often exposed to unfair criticism and misrepresentation.
We call on local communities and every citizens to stand united against such exploitation.
Let us promote responsible storytelling, protect our cultural values and ensure that we are represented well.
Our dignity is not a tool for outsiders' gain - it is the foundation of our identity, and it must be defended.
