Cultural Performances from Lae

Here is a small selection of some of the performances from the Lae Regional Bahai Conference. 41 of these conferences are being held around the world (for more information go to http://news.bahai.org/community-news/regional-conferences/) and its the largest congregation of Baha'is in this country ever (by at least 3 or 4 times).

You can really see the diversity of the people here. Papua New Guinea is one of the most diverse country in the world with over 850 language groups, each considering themselves unique and different from the others. I can't imagine all of these groups being together in any other circumstance but the Baha'i Faith, which has spread over the World and across the diverse ethnic groups around the world has united different people who otherwise would never have even met. The gravity of the impact of this kind of unity is highlighted here in a country where there are still some villages which have never been discovered by the outside world.
