Loop PNG has received overwhelming response over the weekend regarding a story on the PNG flag designer’s critical health condition.

Concerns were raised by the family on the lack of recognition for their mother, which prompted emotional responses from readers.

One reader even suggested for PNG citizens to take ownership and assist Susan’s family in their time of need.

Loop PNG spoke with Susan’s husband, Nanny, who said in spite of the flag making money for businesses, his wife has never received any gratitude, whether in cash or kind.

“We have been together for 45 years. In that time, my wife has never received anything, not even a 5 toea,” he said.

For those who would like to help Susan’s family cover her medical expenses, donations can be deposited into Bank South Pacific account number 100 130 4654 – Joe Huhume.

Nanny explained that they are currently using their son’s account as theirs was shut down due to inactivity.
