I think Madang is a beautiful country and it reflects its beauty an pride. I believe the Head Line is just general statement which might not be tru.If it is so, then maybe by one or two school girls. This kind of Head Line should not be on the internet or newspapers or on the other means of Media because those foreigners will take adventage of this and they will force our young girls into Prostitution and on the other end there will bw a flux of illegal foreigners entering our country for the purpose of sex Trade.
I strongly air my views that if such a school girl is involved into prostitution, then I beg there schould introduce a thurfer Law or shoul the Government and other NGO shoul work around the clock to provide necessary information and councelling.
One way to minimise this is to introduce a new cariculum in the school about Sex and the purpose of it. Teach them about HIV/AIDS and much more.

Hi, this is very dangerous! why can't we just do away with it and probanly introuduce some turf laws like capital punishments and all those laws.
This practise is like a bush fire, why not the Goverment look ito it hurry as soon as possible.

im so sad to see the news in the Post courier, simply because I for one believe that young girls are targeted for those illegal sexual activities. I kindly appeal to the government and the schools to look into that matter seriosuly. the earlier the intervention will be better to solve such social issues. It is a social issue,please parents, teachers and and government lets work together to help counter these illegal activities beforeits spreads like a bush fire in our society.
