Tales of Somare: THE SANA OF MELANESIA

THE SANA OF MELANESIA - When Giants Walked Among Men 

Originally posted by Menom Barok on Facebook

Giants rise, to provide balance when our societies swivel. These are  a unique set of a grand, masterpiece design by Melanesia's Collective Consciousness. They are the judges ordained by the bio-cosmic rays of celestral supremacy.

These Giants were not big in physique, but big in heart. They don't carry around big heads, but big intellect; they don't have big eyes, but they have big visions. Societies called  them by different names, Chosen Ones, Messiahs, Buddhas: Melanesia calls them SANA; they are the Grand Chiefs & Supreme Councils; they are the frontliners who acted as shields against the monsters we created - our own stupidity, ignorance & greed. These are the SANAs that fought different battles during different time dimensions.

SOMARE is a SANA, & SANAs are immortal through the Melanesian Gene. As long as we hosted the burning flag of Melanesia, the SANAs will always be with us. SANAs transform within the realm of conscience. What is left behind after they are gone is only a physical vessel - a symbiotic seal of their divine contract with our collective conscience.

Let us not mourn in tears, but mourn in sweat, for there is a whole new set of Challenges awaiting us.
Let us not mourn because the absence of SANA is a great loss, but let us mourn for this generation who are yet to understand the relevance of Grand Chiefs - which is a very great loss to our intellect.

If a tear is to fall, then let's not define it as the tear of Sorrow, but a tear of Joy, for the SANA has already found ethernal peace with himself.
A SANA has brought home the taste of political independence, yet we never appreciate it. Let's read it as a story of a battle, and when the next SANA was to rise to claim economical independence, let's rise together as a Unified Nation.

SOMARE is the hausmanbrand, SANA is the Melanesian product, we may cry today but the name lives beyond the grave, for history favours Giants.

The SANAs are not a single entity, but an ideology of progressive change. They are the moving portals of spirits & gods.

Let us not take this event as a loss, let us understand it as a generational gain of collective identity.

As long as the Eastern Sun is Yellow; & Southern Cross is White; as long as Melanin is Black & Papuan Blood is Red; We are SOMARE, for he is us. From the height of Mt William to the depths of Coral Seas, it shall be proclaimed that we are the SANAs who never die.

LONG LIVE MELANESIA

Telecoms: ePSK - Multiple Pre-Shared Keys

Originally posted on the Cambium Community Networks Just in case you missed it cnMaestro Version 2.2.1 (Cloud and On-Premise), brings us a great new feature called ePSK. If you’re not familiar with ePSK it’s maybe because Cambium are too modest to toot their own trumpet so I’m going to do it for them. In short ePSK gives each user a unique PSK (pre-shared key) when using WPA2-Personal, for me to explain why this is such a useful feature let me first explain the problem with using a shared PSK across the whole WLAN. When a wireless client connects to an AP it completes a 4-Way handshake, this generates the encryption keys used to encrypt wireless traffic. For the 4-way handshake to work it is a requirement that both the client and AP know the passphrase, however the passphrase is never transmitted over the air thereby making this exchange reasonably secure. But what happens when a 3rd party already knows the passphrase? It means they just need to capture the 4-way handshake to gener...

Trump’s Policies and Their Impact on Papua New Guinea and the Pacific Islands

With Donald Trump taking office as the 47th president of the United States, his administration quickly embarked on sweeping and polarizing policy changes. Through a series of executive orders, Trump underscored his administration's focus on reshaping U.S. policies in areas such as immigration, trade, climate, and foreign aid. While these efforts are primarily centered on advancing U.S. domestic interests, their repercussions are set to ripple across the globe, especially in regions like the Pacific Islands, where economic and environmental challenges are deeply tied to global policies. For Papua New Guinea (PNG) and its Pacific neighbors, Trump’s policies pose both challenges and potential opportunities. These small island nations depend heavily on international trade, foreign aid, and climate action, all of which are areas of uncertainty under the new administration. Key decisions, such as the U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Climate...

Defending Freedom of Speech: The Implications of Facebook Censorship in Papua New Guinea

The Papua New Guinea (PNG) government's recent move to regulate Facebook has sparked significant debate. Citing concerns over misinformation and social unrest, authorities have tested ICT controls to monitor and potentially restrict access to the platform. While the intention is to promote responsible social media use, this action raises critical questions about freedom of expression in the country. The Government's Justification for Facebook Regulation Authorities argue that Facebook has become a conduit for malicious content, including fake news and defamatory material, which could endanger public safety. By implementing a temporary ban or stricter controls, they aim to assess the platform's impact and develop strategies to mitigate these risks. This approach, they claim, is necessary to maintain social harmony and protect citizens from harmful content. However, this rationale has been met with skepticism. Critics contend that such measures...
