FALSE REPORTS ON VIOLENCE

The last week has seen much information in the media on Violence against Women and Children. But much of this is exaggerated and false. It comes from playing games with statistics.

In the Weekend Courier 26 November 2011 we read that UNICEF estimates that 1 million children in PNG live with violence. Did UNICEF put those figures together?

But then we read further down to find that this occurs either in the home or in the community. If we interviewed 3 million children in PNG, we would find that 3 million live with violence. All would be hit by someone and this will go on.

Ask my daughters. They have been hit regularly at school. All have been in fights. Some boy or girl has hit them. My daughters have hit each other. They often hit their half-sister. Their dad hits them sometimes.

My younger daughter drives me mad by saying " Didn't hurt me. Didn't hurt me". If I try to catch her, I do not stand a chance. She runs like greased lightning.

At Madang hospital that services some 100,000 families, there are reported to be 20 cases of domestic violence a month. That is less than one a day. Come UNICEF. Do not exaggerate. That should not happen but we have to put this into perspective. Check the figures in Australian hospitals.

Out of perhaps 100,000 women in the Madang area, there are 8-10 rapes a month. That is 2 a week or one every 3 days. Get that into perspective. Check with Australian violence.

If there are 3 million families in PNG and there are 500 violent attacks on women in one month, that means there may well be 2 million loving families with the same number of loving husbands and wives.

Why does the nation not celebrate loving peaceful families and not just following the propaganda of the UN and AusAID lesbians. They are trying to justify their job by exaggerating the truth.

It is not all about violence just of men bashing women.
