Great PNG muzo. I was drawn to music because of his voice. Honiara nil my favorite. Since his passing, I have had my own version in his memory. RIP my idol

[@pngtumas7787]

I am 39, as a child grew up in the Highlands of PNG listening to this great man sing; whether sung in English, local Kuanua or Tok Pisin, Late John Wong tops it all. The advance in the music industry in PNG is attributed to the foundation laid by people like him. RIP, Sir.
