RESPONSE TO WWF ABOUT PNG INDIGENOUS NGO COMPLAINTS - Indigenous people throughout the world must know of WWF's actions in Papua New Guinea. In PNG we have not only WWF but other BINGOS (big international NGOs) such as Conservation International and The Nature Conservancy. The recent fPcN comment that the WWF defence was "bullshit" is spot on. Here are the details of what is happening in Papua New Guinea with WWF and other BINGOs. In PNG we learned last year that whenever the BINGOS are criticized too effectively they think they may lose project money that they will start a witch hunt to find who is threatening there funding prospects so as to shut up the critics. This is what the BINGOs did in response to essays spreading around which showed the true colours of BINGO actions in PNG.

The BINGO witch hunting taught even doubters among the critics that we must go underground whenever complaining effectively about these corporate conservation monsters. We also learned that the BINGOs don't respond to our criticism meaningfully because in reality they have no respect for the small and simple PNG NGOS. They usually ignore criticism from PNG indigenous NGOs or they talk from one side of their mouth to us while saying something else in private. They are not interested in reform or any change to their neocolonialist structure and behaviour.
