Papua New Guinean Community show better alternatives to mining and oil palm in PNG villages

We are always hearing the argument that without large scale resource projects local communities in PNG cannot develop. This video shows the story of Sausi village in Madang Province and the decision that families there made to build a thriving local economy based on a diverse range of small scale agricultural enterprises. In this way they protected their environment and culture from the onslaught of large scale oil palm plantations.
