Markets in Port Moresby like elsewhere in the world provide a space for economic activity and social interaction. This article engages with two moral concerns that arise from the market. Firstly, I present a description of how the ban of the sale of betel nut is being negotiated by vendors and customers alike in the face of threats of violence from enforcement officials such as police. Secondly, I present concerns that arise at the local Village Court, which is also housed at the market. Both activities invoke debate about morality as they raise discussion about citizen and government responsibility, ideas of place and ways of being.

道德与莫斯比市场

像世界其他地方一样,莫尔兹比港的市场为经济活动和社会互动提供了空间。本文涉及市场引起的两个道德问题。首先,我描述一下在面对执法人员(例如警察)的暴力威胁时,供应商和客户如何谈判禁止出售槟榔。其次,我对当地的乡村法院提出了担忧,该法院也在市场上出售。两项活动都引发了关于道德的辩论,因为它们引发了关于公民和政府责任,位置观念和存在方式的讨论。
