This video was in my village. I was about 7 years old when Michael came to our place, Tumolbil. Great to see this video 🙏🏽

Buys a bunch of sweet potato at the super market 😂😂 aww you’re a true Papua New Guinean

[@Harmphrey]

does anybody know, medically, what ailed Kodenim?

[@mwesch]

I asked my friend who was a Tropical Disease specialist at the Mayo Clinic at the time and he said without a test it would be impossible to know exactly.

[@Natures_Son]

Maybe a severe case of malaria? Indicated by the swelling of the deceased's spleen. Just a guess.

Isaiah55:6&7,"Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near.Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts.Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them, and to our God, for he will freely pardon." Repent, receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior today.This is God's invitation for redemption, Jesus loves you so much and he is the only WAY to eternity.God bless you

At 12:16 what does that guy have a carrot in pants? Weird. Great story.

[@mks9235]

Did that guy die under your watch i.e. you didn't bother to take him to a doctor, or advise him to go to one?

[@juliastarczewski1746]

he begged his family to let him take Koldenim to a hospital on the next flight out, but Kodenim himself refused.

[@marksinger2360]

"White man's burden" circa 2021. These people may have been under his observation (something of a problem, but one I'm sure he recognizes), but there is no way they were under his "watch."

[@1970brenz]

Different culture = different rules. 😉 Not everyone lives the same way as us in the West,we're just so used to it. In these Pacific peoples relationships and honouring others has highest currency and not individualism. Everything a person does affects others if not the whole village.

When the shaman pulled out the bundle,, oh yeah this shits real
