Millionaire died of Diabetes from Junk Food

In Port Moresby, at Gerehu and Boroko, everyone knew him - Mr. Peter Tua ( nickname). Big man. Real estate in NCD, 4 rental houses at Morata, 2 trade stores at Gordons, BSP bank account with K3.2 Million Kina. But Peter had one habit. Every day in Moresby - 2 large Coca-Cola, KFC buckets, lamb flaps from RH, white rice, maggi noodles, 6 sugars in coffee. No walk. He drove Land Cruiser V8 from house to shop - 2 minutes drive. He said, "I'm a Moresby businessman, I can afford good food." His wife at Waigani told him "Papa, you are too fat, go to Port Moresby General Hospital and check sugar." He laughed. "Diabetes is for village people." In late 2024, Peter started getting tired at his office in Downtown Port Moresby. Always thirsty. Always going to toilet at Vision City. His foot got a small sore from tight shoe that never healed. These are classic diabetes symptoms - same type 2 diabetes warning signs doctors warn in diabetes treatment in USA, diabetes care in UK, diabetes prevention in Canada, diabète traitement en France, and diabetes management in Australia. He went to PIH Hospital. Blood sugar 29 mmol. Doctor said "You have severe type 2 diabetes, kidney damage already." Too late. Kidney failed. Eyes went blind. Doctors at PMGH said leg must be cut. Peter had K3.2 Million in BSP, but in Port Moresby you cannot buy new kidney easily. He died February 2025. 54 years old. In his big house at Boroko. At his funeral at 9 Mile, his wantoks drove his new Land Cruisers. His money was shared. Peter was in coffin - thin, blind, leg cut. He saved millions in Port Moresby for 20 years eating junk food to save time - but diabetes killed him in 6 months. His wealth was enjoyed by others. According to United Nations and WHO Global Diabetes Report, diabetes is now fastest growing killer in Pacific Islands including Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. UN Sustainable Development Goal 3.4 aims to reduce premature deaths from diabetes by one-third by 2030. PNG is off-track. Diabetes Australia warns: "Diabetes is not about money. It doesn't care if you have $1 million in Australia or K3 Million in Port Moresby. If you eat junk food daily, don't exercise, diabetes will take your life. Prevention is cheaper than treatment - healthy eating, 30 min walk, regular sugar check." Lesson for Port Moresby Businessmen: If you live in Moresby, have money in BSP, Kina Bank, houses at Gerehu, Boroko, 8 Mile - please: 1. Stop lamb flaps, KFC and Coke daily - Port Moresby junk food is killing businessmen 2. Eat fish from Koki, greens from Gordons market 3. Walk at Ela Beach every morning 4. Check blood sugar - diabetes check at Port Moresby clinics is K50, but dialysis in Port Moresby is expensive Don't be like Peter of Port Moresby. Don't let others enjoy your K3 Million while you suffer from diabetes complications preventable by healthy diet for diabetes in USA, UK, Canada, France, Australia and PNG. In Port Moresby, your health is your real wealth - not your bank balance.
