PNG Vs Australian Navy Twerking
Back in PNG, just last week, the former Miss PNG caused an uproar in PNG Social Media, especially Facebook, for twerking. Miss PNG twerking was a bit of fun during the 'lockdown' in Port Moresby.
The uproar in Social Media in PNG and Main Stream media in Australia following the dancers twerking video shows that many people see twerking as inappropriate.
The video capture by ABC News was reported to have been doctored. ABC recently apologised to the dancers.

Here are what some response from the general public about the Australian Navy Dancers Dancers twerking.
"I think standards have failed and so I think obviously [the] defence will look at these matters and make what changes they wish to in the future. I will leave that to them. It is disappointing that Australians were so misled on that issue." Scott Morrison, Australian PM
"We don’t tell young women enough is enough. Young men doing burnouts, fighting, wolf-whistling. Jumped on. Young women twerking, debasing culture, well that’s terrific. Can’t put limits on girls, that would be like Hitler or my dad or something." (Twitter post/Name withheld)
"Sorry. Not appropriate. Doesn't matter who the girls are, this is not appropriate. At a time when we are promoting the rights of women to not be objectified, there are other dance moves that would be fun and equally energetic." (Twitter post, name withheld)
