Two Papua New Guinea students studying in the United States have met up with the PNG delegation who are in the United States to receive the 400 year old King James Bible. Students Max Sale and Samson Paul drove six hours from Ohio to Indiana to meet up with the PNG delegation. Both students are from the Nipa Kutubu electorate in the Southern Highlands Province. It was a proud moment for the two students to meet up with the higher profile delegation led by Speaker Theo Zurenuoc. They also met up with their governor Honorable William Powi.
The delegates are coming back to PNG on Monday with the KJV Bible and will be given a guard of honor to welcome them. The historical old Bible will replace the traditional parliament carvings that the speak destroyed in a controversial stance claiming that the carvings depicted evil spirit.
