Lutheran Mission Training

There are three main Lutheran training locations in Lae; Martin Luther Seminary in Malahang, Balob Teachers College in Butibum and the Bumayong Lutheran High school [1]

Law and Order

In November 2011, large scale riots broke out in Lae following a petition and march on the Morobe Provincial Admin (Tutumang). The petition addressed four points, namely;[2]

  1. Lae city Authority Manager to be sacked for giving contracts to outsiders and not Morobeans.
  2. Highlands PMV bus stop at Eriku to move to 9mile.
  3. No more street selling in the city as it only breeds criminal activities.
  4. Check on Lands Dept office and sack its staff for land corruption deals to Asians, outsiders etc.

A Vox populi reported in The National outlines the opinions of residents;[3]

"I call on Luther Wenge to take a bus ride from town to Eriku and see first-hand how the city is like"
"“It is frustrating and scary for me as a woman to catch a PMV from Eriku to work"

The violent riots have crippled Papua New Guinea's main industrial centre with widespread destruction of property and government is warning it may declare a state of emergency.[4]

More than 1000 people were left homeless as many homes in Bumayong were destroyed in two days of riots which left nine people dead.[5]

In 2013 the youths of Bumayong surrendered a large number of weapons including homemade pistols, wire catapults, a grenade and several kilos of Marijuana.[6]

Bumayong Lutheran High School

In 1955 a Conch (instrument) band was formed at the Bumayong High School near the Lutheran headquarters.[8] Missionaries in PNG expected all their congregations to learn to sing European hymns and German Lutherans improved singing through innovative use of traditional instrument, the conch-shell trumpet. The conch-shell band preserve German Lutheran hymnody.[9][10]
