Papua New Guinea is one of the pristine lands of human development in the world and the site of many rumours in the international community. There are many very peculiar legends about the country's traditional tribal customs, laws and regulations, such as the human flesh food traditions in its culture. In reality, however, the State of Papua New Guinea gained independence as early as 1960 and has developed into a modern State. Although some people in rural areas still maintain a traditional way of life, the custom of eating human flesh has long ceased to exist.

In fact, the country has enacted a series of laws prohibiting and punishing anyone who takes pride in cannibalism. In 2012, the country's national parliament passed a bill formally banning and criminalizing practices that violate human values, such as "eating human flesh" by people in tribal areas. In addition, the Government has strengthened security management in all parts of the country and maintained social stability in the country. Therefore, at this stage in Papua New Guinea, cannibal tribes have become a thing of the past, and the government has been working hard to promote the country's cultural and tourism industry and attract more tourists to share the possibilities of this beautiful island nation.
