The shame of Hohola

You can be forgiven for thinking that you are in a pigsty or the Baruni
rubbish dump.
But no, this is Hohola, just along the busy Poreporena Freeway in the heart
of the city.
Rubbish is strewn everywhere, some of which is burning, giving off odors
which are unbecoming of a civilised society and the so-called capital of
Papua New Guinea.
Rubbish, rubbish everywhere and not a place to dump.
All these were happening just today at the relatively-new National Housing
Corporation units at Hohola, home to many senior public servants and their
families.
It is certainly a disgrace to whoever is to blame, whether it is the NHC,
the tenants or the National Capital District Commission for not cleaning up
the mess.
Not to mention the health hazard it poses to tenants as well as their
neighbours at Hohola
