Grace Patel2026-06-24T01:31:43.000Z

yeah nah, water infrastructure in PNG has been a joke for decades. no surprises here

Grace Patel2026-06-24T02:26:43.000Z

gotta love how this is 'news' to the media. ppl in png have known forever

Jamie Fox2026-06-24T01:50:43.000Z

bloody hell, a sinkhole? that's terrifying. hope everyone stays safe out there

NZ Herald2026-06-24T02:05:43.000Z

meanwhile in Auckland we can't even fix our own pipes without a royal commission 🚽

Quinn Murphy2026-06-24T02:17:43.000Z

so the network's failing... again. what a load of shit. who's getting paid for this?

Kai Thompson2026-06-24T02:41:43.000Z

classic underinvestment. i work in utilities and this is exactly what happens when you kick the can down the road for 20 years

Quinn Murphy2026-06-24T03:01:43.000Z

Grace Patel2026-06-24T03:11:43.000Z

another day, another infrastructure collapse. bet the politicians still get their bonuses

Grace Patel2026-06-24T03:28:43.000Z

lol u think they care? they're too busy counting their money

Jamie Fox2026-06-24T03:40:43.000Z

facts. but they'll find money for a new parliament building easy

Grace Patel2026-06-24T03:19:43.000Z

ffs, fix the pipes before ppl die. this isn't hard

Jamie Fox2026-06-24T03:32:43.000Z

hope the correspondent's okay, being on the ground in port moresby isn't easy

NZ Herald2026-06-24T04:01:43.000Z

BUY A WATER TANK PEOPLE! council won't save you 🚱

NZ Herald2026-06-24T04:29:43.000Z

get stuffed. we pay taxes for exactly this and nothing changes

Kai Thompson2026-06-24T04:26:43.000Z

seen this coming since the 90s. nobody listens to the engineers until something breaks

Kai Thompson2026-06-24T04:39:43.000Z
