I hear the news, quite terrible in Papua New Guinea!

The AIDS patients were buried alive by their relatives when they became too sick to care for.

In the countryside of Papua New Guinea, people with HIV was strongly against. There is scarce education about the disease.

The officials is now probing into the affair.

Some one say, it's better to end up the patients' life so that they do not suffer too much pain. But to burry them alive seems too cruel I think! What do you think? Is it right or not?

It is cruel. How can they do this? If those buriers were the patients, would they like to be buried alive? If these AIDS patients choose to end up their lives, maybe euthanasia is the best.

That's a terrible story.

I can understanding shooting a person in great pain to put them out of misery. I can even understanding killing a sick person consuming the precious resources of an impoverished community. ...but burying a sick person alive? It does not settle well with me.

Yes so terrible!
But what if the patients themselves want to be burried alive?

Papau New Gunea.is a very wild place and not very safe to travel around.
My oldest son had a school friend from there who was sent to Oz for his education and told us stories about what went on.
There are stories that in the hills they still hunt for heads and eat their foes.
