crowd-wide whistle intro to “Meror Waghi”, Western Highlands’ Bata Rods and EstaPacifica delivered a hip-hop meets kundu drum mashup, Kingsmahn – HLP Crew (Jiwaka) debuted their new single “Gehamo Moho”, Naxii Jay & Kalu T (Hela/SHP) provided a tag team rap in Tok Pisin and Huli, and Lerams of Kagua and Ragga Siai (SHP) finished with classic string band harmonies. Over 40 SME stalls served mumu pork, roasted kaukau
(sweet potato), herbal-infused kambang drinks and small bags of organic coffee from Goroka. Telikom and Vodafone kiosks sat side-by-side with bilum weavers and face paint artists, turning the venue into a living village. UPNG Highlands students escorted Mud Men, sing- sing groups and a convoy of decorated flat beds into the city before the gates opened – an explosion of paint, cassowary feathers and hornbills carved in polystyrene.
