I been there, a few times, i had a heap of fun there, i drunk the whole time i was there basically, chewing Buai, bought some weed of a cop, went to a party at the house of the guy who owns the bank there, and just drove around a heap of my PNG mates having fun, it was awesome a good experience, but i was lucky to be living with locals so was probably more real, more fun and much more safe.
Wow Avoid Gerehu LOL that's where i grew up (1992) ,i left Pom city when i was 12 years old (1999) but living and growing up there has made me tough mentally to face the modern world that "hit now ask later" i believe the local lingo its "Noxbusi" attitude is instilled in me. i leave with these last words mosbi ya shhh em ples blo mi yu bi nogat! Thanks for the post.
A friend of mine who was from Rabaul & therefore a local lived & ran a business in Port Moresby. Somewhere around '93 or '94 his son went out to a restaurant for a meal with friends. During their meal the place was raided by 'rascals' & he was shot dead with a shotgun @ 18. Usually tourist move around in groups with guides & so there is very little danger. To say there is no danger at all means you have your head in the sand.Most private house are surrounded by 12' fences topped with razor wire.
i was born in lae and im white/asian i remember before independence when you could walk around safely at night and everything thank god I got out of that hole.
you can go out at night, but at your own risk. Some times after heading to the nightclubs or restaurants and returning back home, there are occasions where people observe your activity and take advantage of people such as holding them up when at there drive way (since every house usually has 6-7 foot fences). Pretty much the saying there is if your soft hearted then get out of town. lol
im not papuan i was there suburb call maurata where police not allowed, i lived with local and we play games rugby whole night, if u become friend with local then u are king... love u PNG from a pakistani
Port Moresby is the capital city but is just one little part of PNG. 90% of the country is rural with less development and has remained untouched and natural as ever. If you want to know the country and you're looking for adventure, you have to get out of Port Moresby and into the provinces. That's where the excitement is.
Yeah the country is where the excitement is. Where you will be mugged by people with machetes in broad daylight and no one will hear you scream and there's no where to run. Gotta love that excitement.
dude, cool video..."while in Port Moresby, never walk alone at night. never talk on your phone or show anyone you have any cash. never use an ATM or take public transportation. never go anywhere alone. don't go swimming in the ocean. don't go buy groceries alone. don't drink the water. don't eat anything unless it's McDonald's. don't eat the McDonald's either. don't go to the park or take a ride in any car...etc..." i'm going somewhere safe and quiet by comparison...like south central LA =/
Thanks for catching that spelling error, Felicity. It was a tough task gathering a list of dangerous areas in Moresby. Everyone I asked said something different, but a few names came up more than once. Kone was one of them. I also thought it looked alright, but I wasn't there long enough to really know.
@poganstick: Yes, five days is too long. There's really not a lot to do there unless you stay at the ultra-luxury Airways Hotel or at Loloata. In one day you can get a feel for the city. Two if you really want to explore it. Having an escort is helpful, but not necessary. You can walk around Town, villages like Hanuabada, and take the PMVs around on your own during the daytime no problem. If you go to public markets and shady neighbourhoods, then I'd make a local friend.
The biggest bullshit I've ever heard, I feel insulted. It's racist .... there are good and bad areas all over the world ... why is PNG explicitly referred to at a criminal level here ...
Hey Nice video! I am going to Port Moreseby Next month and staying for 5 days. Do you think that it is too long to stay. Me and another person are going. should we be accompanied by people who can protect us?
hmmmm no offence but I am thinking PNG crime rates are low may also due to no reports are made for most crimes so crimes not report = not file not recorded ? its like 100 cases happens a week but only 3 cases are reported, some are covered up ? some cases are treated as daily rountine ? etc... well i might not be right ...
You know what, there are other places that are unsafe to walk around to. But thanks for the informative vid on our city, I actually work in Kone and got held up so I know for sure that it is a very unsafe place. I looked at your shots of Ela Beach and yes.... Its soo ugly no one wants to swim there... lol!
@Mrgokueldestructor Well, it is an interesting place to live. Really! We have some very good places but I wouldnt recommend POM but other provinces but in terms of safety. You just have to go with a local and all's good. Well, if you do plan on visiting, our people are awesome in hospitality. Cheers!
@Mrgokueldestructor That is sooooo true. Why can't we walk around at night?? Coz its freaking scary, you might get robbed or stabbed etc especially in Port Moresby and other big towns around the country... You have to get on a cab with three other people in the night coz you can't trust this cab drivers. Yes, we do party but you can't walk home or even walk around at night. You'd have to get on a cab or hire a car to get home. I'm ashamed our Pacific island countries are safer than POM!
one night after returning from the club in port moresby, i was surrounded by a gang of raskols that was cruising the streets looking for people to rob. they hopped out the truck and pummeled me with bars of soap in socks. the beating lasted 30 minutes, but it seemed like an eternity, once i was rendered completely incapacitated, they rummaged through my wallet and left. i had internal injuries that were so severe, i had to have most of my organs removed and now i live in the hospital. i am unable to go outside, walk, talk, or eat on my own. all because raskols wanted the 20 bucks i had in my pocket. don't go to port moresby. it simply is not worth it
+VanIsleBC I am so sorry that happened to you, I'm from PNG and I know first hand as well how very dangerous it is. On behalf of all the descent people in Port Moresby we apologize and wish you the best in life.
This is not really an ultimate guide to POM. Ur telling people bout a particular end of POM, 4rm down town & its coast line to Hanuabada, that makes up only, what? 30% of the city & ur telling people to stay away from the rest 70%? POM is an amazing tourism experience anyone can get. FYI PNG's not in the top 70's of the worst crime rated countries, Australia has a higher crime rate compared to PNG, c it urself at NATIONALMONSTERS site- CRIME STATISTICS > TOTAL CRIME (MOST RECENT) BY COUNTRIES.
Republik Indonesia I been to and love both, there are far better places in Indonesia than Bali too, PNG is good because its raw, and the scenery there is amongst the best ive seen, its not a sit in your resort and relax place, its more Indiana Jones, which some people like, It would be good to go to Bali, after a trip to PNG, to rest and let all the insect bites, cuts and scratches heal.
Why would anyone want to go to Indonesia. Bali's a great front for all the genocide the rest of the world turns a blind eye to!!!! FREE WEST PAPUA!!!! FREE MELANESIA!!!!!!!!!
Don't ever EVER go out these streets at night. This is a touristguide? This place is defenitly not a tourist place, go in do your thing and get out of the city before nightfall.
Baz alokaka once was a Man, he was " adopted" by mile 5 raskalls for pleasure in forest,. He is now officially Mussa's 2 wife, he had rectal problems , he really liked PNG. He is Marylin now .
Very low " Know how" , that means ...,no Customer Service. Forget " Sunny relaxing on a Saturday's morning" on a beach.....?????? Ahhhh as port Moresby has nothing, Nothing... If Yet , Drunk people , and violence. A shi.t hole Mall, with old items... Nothing. Ohhhhhh, never EVER think of going out with your wife ,for a Relaxing promenade. Stay in your Resort, it is a " Hell' s Hole" , really Poor. But mostly, Retarded , we saw a man beating a woman, no ONE did profeerred a word. This place has to change, no " Excuses, of Culture". Government has Money. Shi. Place on the world. YES
Who the hell would post bullshit like this? And i'm sorry how long have you LIVED in PNG?!? or Port Moresby. To anyone who views this video "every country has its goods and bad WHETHER BLACK OR WHITE RED OR YELLOW. TO VICTORINO watch your mouth!! Don't listen to bullshit like this and even watch it. Experience it for yourself its not as BAD as people make it out to be"
I've been studying and had my eyes on the subject for years. If PNG is so rich in natural resources, why does it take Whites to find them? I see the streets lined with European and American cars. Where did they come from? Exports from White countries. I see tall buildings. Did they build them without help from Whites? Answer these questions. Come on, it's not that hard to draw these conclusions.
At least they have the intelligence to feed themselves, rather than starving to death. It's the same story over and over. When we're gone, you'll long for the day Whitey keep you from starving - or being hungry for that matter. Count your blessings. Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it.(Chinese proverb).

as a Pacific Islander, my ancestor came from Papua and I aint a bitch cuz walking at night.

i'm going somewhere safe and quiet by comparison...like south central LA =/
rofflemows2 There is no Mcdonalds.
As a person of south central LA, I must confirm its alright here but it can be a hit scary after 7 pm
Wtf are you saying
In short just don’t go there?
on the Internet it is said to be one of the most 10 dangerous cities in the world
Probably the most dangerous place in the world
Thanks for the video, sooner or later I inted to travel to PNG and this video will come helpful moving the first steps there :)
Jason.. Did you finally go there?
Papuans helped Uncle Jackie when he got sick from malaria during the Kokoda trail Buna fighting 1943-3.

Armed guides during the day. 2+ armed guards / better still stay indoors during the night.
how are you supposed to find a local to take you places?
joe651dzd PNG tourism website or ask someone who know from PNG. Better with tourism board and vetted.
Much better now but still a lot of work to do.
See ya soon PNG.
So, did you end up going?
I did :)
HeyImNatalia That's sweet as, how was it? :')

Sounds like a gang from Detroit or Gary, Indianna. The soap in socks assault is an old US prison thing...
"bars of soap"?? This naka is lying! Nobody does that in PNG
Soooooooooooooooooooo true
0:27 I've walked up that more than 50 times. You shit your pants everytime. It starts from town and goes up to Airvos Avenue.
Kone! HAhaah That my place! Grew up there walked the streets night and day! But fuck doing it now! Have not been to png in 8 years!!
Looks like Borderlands
where are the zombies? :D
The zombie is You🤣😂🤣😂
You know it was colonization that made it very hard for people at first and its even harder to this day.
Fuck PNG, go to Thailand or even Indonesia, you can walk at night without worrying about zombies.
yeah where they murder our west papuan brothers and sisters
LOL..avoid gerehu
Bro 5 mile isn't that bad lol. 24 market stap na pom stap
Correct. Just like anywhere else. Even in Melbourne people get bashed up on trains for no reason at all!!

Nonsense
