The Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary Deputy Commissioner Administration Joanne Clarkson recently accompanied the Commissioner of Police to address the newest Police Recruits.
This was at the Bomana Police Bomana Centre of Excellence in the National Capital District, where the new recruits will commence their training.
Deputy Commissioner Administration Joanne Clarkson highlighted that the Constabulary needs more policewomen.
She encouraged the 61 female recruits in both regular and cadet programs to take the training seriously and join the serving women in the force.
“Currently we have a gender imbalance in the Constabulary, and I want to encourage more women to join the force.”
“The force needs females just as much as it needs men.”
Ms. Clarkson explained that the infrastructure at the Bomana Centre of Excellence has received major facelifts and the recruits will be the pioneers to utilize these new facilities.
