A Papua LNG landowner representative is urging the National Government to resolve critical disputes over landowner identification, consent, and project benefits before rushing to finalize the project’s Final Investment Decision (FID).Responding to Prime Minister James Marape’s September 24 statement, Meagher Marva Haro-Taylor—managing partner of Harma Capital Connect and a Papua LNG landowner—argued that the government’s focus on a December 15 FID deadline ignores fundamental state responsibilities and local property rights.The Prime Minister has appealed to local landowners and the Gulf and Central provincial governments to reach an agreement by November. This timeline is aimed at helping project partners raise US$14.5 billion in international capital.While Haro-Taylor acknowledged that the Papua LNG project must remain globally competitive, she stressed that commercial deadlines should not replace concrete answers to the landowner grievances.According to Haro-Taylor, current tensions stem from a failure by the Government and the National Petroleum Authority (DPE/NPA) to independently verify rightful landowners. She alleged that the state relied heavily on a developer-produced Social Mapping and Landowner Identification Study (SMLIS) from 2022 (amended in 2025), which remains hidden from the public.Key unresolved issues highlighted in the statement include:Excluded Clans: Multiple clans remain excluded from the official register and the Ministerial Determination, with disputes currently sitting before the courts and the Petroleum Minister.Withdrawn Consent: All 11 clans within the Elk-Antelope Gas Project Area Landowner Association formally withdrew their Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) on July 10, 2026. No state investigation into this withdrawal has been launched.Discrepant Population Data: Official documents show wildly conflicting estimates of the affected population, swinging from 12,700 in the upstream Environmental Impact Statement to over 63,000 in forum documentation.(Note: These claims were issued by the landowner representative; the Prime Minister's Office and the National Petroleum Authority have not yet provided a formal response to these specific points).Haro-Taylor raised serious concerns over equity allocations, noting that clans lack the funding to secure independent legal, financial, and technical advice. She pointed out the disparity of allocating K100 million to run the development forum while ring-fencing zero funds for independent landowner representation.Furthermore, the decision to pipeline Elk and Antelope gas to processing facilities in Central Province—rather than developing infrastructure within Gulf Province, where the resource originates—remains unexplained to local leaders and landowners.Haro-Taylor firmly rejected the Prime Minister’s characterization that landowner demands amount to "greed suffocating what is good for all." She maintained that demanding a verified register, enforceable equity transparency, and infrastructural explanations are basic resource-owner rights.The statement clarified that landowners do not oppose the Papua LNG project itself, but they refuse to sign agreements under intense deadline pressure. Doing so, Haro-Taylor warned, would simply move the battlefield from the negotiation table to the national courts.Citing a 2025 complaint over alleged breaches of the Equator Principles and IFC Performance Standards—which reportedly led 32 financial institutions to rule out funding the project—she urged the State to learn from historical precedents like Bougainville and resolve underlying grievances before demanding signatures.

The Papua New Guinea Electoral Commission (PNGEC) has adopted a crisis-management approach to tackle critical delays in preparations for the 2027 National General Election. Alongside these measures, the commission is investigating severe internal financial, procurement, and administrative irregularities.The PNGEC acknowledged that its election timeline is critically behind schedule. It attributed the crisis to:Sustained under-resourcing and financial mismanagement.Failure by past management to adopt modern technologies.Insufficient progress on necessary electoral reforms and remedial work.To close the readiness gap, a dedicated, delivery-oriented crisis-management team has been established under the direct command of the Electoral Commissioner to accelerate decision-making.The PNGEC welcomed a K150 million allocation for election readiness in the recent Supplementary Budget. The Department of Treasury and the Minister for Administrative Services are actively working to ensure the timely release of these funds.The commission also acknowledged ongoing collaborative support from the Inter-Departmental Election Committee and various state entities, including:The departments of Finance, Justice, Personnel Management, and Information and Communications Technology (DICT).The Department of the Prime Minister and the Government Printing Office.The Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary (RPNGC).The Integrity of Political Parties and Candidates Commission (IPPCC).Transparency International PNG and various international development partners.The crisis team is concurrently tackling deep-seated legacy issues, including procurement flaws, an aging workforce, data gaps, and "ghost workers" on the payroll. Extensive internal reviews are underway, consisting of an HR and payroll audit, an ICT infrastructure and cybersecurity audit, and an upcoming independent financial audit (covering 2020–2025) by the Auditor-General’s Office.Following an initial review of administrative records spanning 2020–2026, the commission took swift interim action by suspending several senior officers. These precautionary suspensions were executed under the Public Services (Management) Act 1995 and Public Service General Orders, in consultation with the Secretary of the Department of Personnel Management, to ensure an independent investigation can proceed without interference.While formal disciplinary charges may follow, the PNGEC declined to name the officials or release further details to avoid compromising the investigation or prejudicing the rights of those involved.The PNGEC strongly rejected claims circulating on social media regarding structural funding shortages. It clarified that recent payment and procurement delays stem primarily from internal irregularities and missing documentation rather than a lack of state capital. The commission framed public concerns raised by anonymous "insiders" as a constructive call for stronger internal governance.Moving forward, the PNGEC urges the public to verify all election-related data. Official statements will strictly be endorsed by the Electoral Commissioner, distributed through accredited media outlets, and published on the official PNGEC website and verified social media handles.

Police in Enga Province are working to contain renewed conflict in Laiagap Station after a health clinic was damaged and looted, and two staff houses were burned.Enga Provincial Police Commander Chief Superintendent Steve Harris said police are taking control of the situation, while he awaits a detailed briefing on the extent of the damage.Harris said the clinic was not destroyed by fire, contrary to initial reports. He said, according to the Laiagap Police Station Commander, the clinic was damaged and looted, while two staff residences were burned.The incidents come amid broader tensions in the Laiagap area. Harris said police are monitoring developments and have a plan to respond in the coming days.He also revealed that he obtained National Court orders covering Laiagap District last month before taking leave. The orders give authorities the power to issue directions to people in the area and require the surrender of firearms and other items.Harris said the orders had not been obeyed and warned that people who breach them could be arrested for contempt of court, which he said requires a lower threshold of evidence than a criminal prosecution.PPC Harris said officers would continue monitoring the situation as they prepare to enforce the court orders and restore order in the district.

Following another boat accident last Saturday, East New Britain Provincial Police Commander, Chief Superintendent Amanda Kates, expressed deep disappointment with boat operators for failing to adhere to safety warnings.PPC Kates stated that the recent tragedy, which resulted in the loss of lives, has once again highlighted the urgent need for stricter enforcement of maritime safety regulations across the province.PPC Kates confirmed that at the time of the incident, there were 14 people on board the vessel. Tragically, one individual was confirmed dead, with nine survivors rescued.Efforts are ongoing to locate four individuals who remain missing, as authorities continue their search and rescue operations.“It is so unfortunate that we have experienced another tragic loss only a few months after the previous incident that claimed 27 lives.”“Our thoughts are with the families and communities affected by this tragedy.”PPC Kates emphasized that the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary (RPNGC) is taking decisive action to prevent similar occurrences in the future.“We are cracking down really hard on boat operators who neglect their duties. This includes ensuring that all passengers are equipped with proper flotation devices and lifesaving equipment on board, as required by law.”She explained that in this recent incident, the boat operators are presumed to be missing or deceased, and at this stage, there are no ongoing follow-up investigations or repercussions directed at those involved.Nevertheless, she stressed that the police are actively targeting boat operators and crew members to enforce safety standards under the Small Craft Act.“If we find that they have failed to uphold safety requirements, they will be charged accordingly, and the penalties and fines for such violations are severe, reflecting the seriousness of these safety breaches.”PPC Kates reaffirmed the police’s commitment to working with maritime authorities and local communities to improve safety practices and prevent future tragedies.She also called on boat operators to prioritize passenger safety and adhere strictly to all maritime regulations.As investigations continue and rescue efforts persist almost a week since the incident, the community and authorities remain hopeful that the four missing individuals will be found safely.

In a significant development for law enforcement and community safety in East New Britain province, four state-of-the-art duplexes and a new house for police officers stationed in Warangoi, where officially commissioned and open on Wednesday 23rd September.The project was funded by the Marape-Rosso Government through the Special Police Assistance Program (SPAP) for the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary.The commissioning also highlights the government’s commitment to improving police welfare and fostering stronger ties between law enforcement and local communities.The new duplexes represent a substantial upgrade from the outdated accommodation that officers had been living in since the 1960s, with some structures only slightly refurbished in the 1980s.ENB Provincial Police Commander Chief Superintendent Amanda Kates, highlighted the importance of proper housing for police officers, emphasizing that it would have a positive effect on community policing.“Having modern, comfortable accommodation allows our officers to reside within the community they serve, which is vital for building trust, developing relationships, and ensuring quick and effective responses to incidents,” said PPC Kates.PPC Kates further explained that the new housing facilities would enable officers to be more accessible and responsive, especially during critical times such as the upcoming elections.“This initiative ensures that our police personnel are better positioned to serve and protect, leading to safer communities.”In addition to the housing, the police force received two new vehicles; a Ten-seater and a Dual-Cab was also donated to support their operational needs.These vehicles will enhance mobility and responsiveness, further bolstering law enforcement capabilities in Warangoi and surrounding areas.Chief Superintendent Kates stressed the the upgrade reflects the government’s broader commitment under the Marape-Rosso administration to improve police infrastructure and welfare nationwide.She further outlined ongoing and future projects aimed at addressing accommodation issues across ENB province, including plans to construct similar duplexes at Keravat and Tomoringa.  Moreover, the funds have been allocated for the renovation of 12 houses at Toguata, aiming to bring all police housing up to modern standards.The official opening of the Warangoi police duplexes is seen as a positive step toward strengthening law enforcement presence and community engagement in East New Britain.With improved accommodation and resources, police officers are now better equipped to maintain peace, respond swiftly to emergencies, and foster a safer environment for all communities in the province.

The Member for Kairuku and Minister for Energy, Peter Isoaimo, has revealed plans to develop more secondary schools and invest in renewable energy solutions within the district’s education sector.Speaking at the 72nd Grade 10 and 22nd Grade 12 graduation ceremony held at Mainohana Catholic Secondary School in Central province, Minister Isoaimo emphasized the importance of equipping students with the skills and resources needed to thrive in a rapidly digitalizing world.Addressing graduating students, Minister Isoaimo urged young people to prepare themselves for an increasingly connected and competitive global economy.“In a fast-digitalized global economy and a global community, the world has become smaller, so you need to run with that pace in your new place of learning or whatever career path you wish to take,” he told the graduates.Minister Isoaimo emphasized the importance of computer literacy, saying students must be comfortable using technology as part of their education and future careers.He highlighted the district’s commitment to enhancing technological access in schools, noting that the Kairuku District Development Authority (KDDA) has already pledged support by providing computers to local schools. He also proposed developing solar power systems to ensure reliable electricity supply, which is critical for the operation of modern educational facilities.“If need be, I think we should really do a little solar farm to run the school,” he said, suggesting that the existing generator could remain on standby while solar power provides electricity for the school administration and, importantly, its computer facilities.In addition to technological improvements, Minister Isoaimo outlined KDDA’s plans to expand the district’s secondary education infrastructure.Recognizing the increasing demand for higher-level schooling, he announced intentions to upgrade existing day high schools into fully-fledged secondary schools. Specifically, the Wama Day High School and the Allen de Boismenu Day High School will be developed to accommodate Grades 11 and 12.“This will allow students from Hiri-Koiari, especially those from the roadside communities, as well as Kuriva, St John’s, Kerea, Doura and Veimauri, to access secondary education closer to their communities,” he said.Minister Isoaimo said students from these areas currently face longer journeys to schools such as Laloki, Yarowari and Mt. Diamond, creating challenges in transportation and daily movement.Concluding his address, Minister Isoaimo congratulated the graduates on their achievements, urging them to carry forward the values of education into their future endeavors.He emphasized that the district’s educational investments are designed not only to serve local opportunities but also to prepare Kairuku’s youth for the demands of a rapidly evolving global environment.

During the Special Parliamentary Committee Hearing on Communications today, key discussions centered around the establishment of a National Press or Media Workers' Union in Papua New Guinea.The Secretary for the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations, Mr. George Taunakekei presented a comprehensive overview of the legal and institutional framework supporting the formation of such unions, emphasizing the importance of aligning with international labor standards and local legislation.Taunakekei highlighted that Papua New Guinea currently lacks a formal press or media union, although the Media Council of Papua New Guinea functions as a self-regulatory body. He explained that under the country's Industrial Organizations Act (Chapter 173), media workers, such as journalists, editors, and broadcasters are recognized as employees and are therefore legally eligible to form or join unions.He emphasized that the formation of a media union is both legally feasible and practically significant. The process involves applying for registration with the Office of the Industrial Registrar, submitting necessary documentation such as membership lists, constitutional rules, and resolutions, followed by an advertisement period for objections. If approved, a certificate of registration is issued, granting the union legal standing.Furthermore, he pointed out that Papua New Guinea ratified key International Labor Organization (ILO) conventions, Convention No. 87 on Freedom of Association (ratified in 1976) and Convention No. 98 on the Right to Organize and Collective Bargaining (ratified in 2000).These conventions legally obligate the government to uphold the rights of workers, including media personnel, to organize and bargain collectively without discrimination or interference. Taunakekei stated that these obligations reinforce the legitimacy and importance of establishing a press or media union.Despite the legal provisions, Secretary Taunakekei noted that the media fraternity has yet to approach the Department of Labor’s Office of the Industrial Registrar to express interest in forming a union. This absence of organized representation has implications for journalistic integrity and professional independence, especially when media workers fear job security repercussions or victimization.Chairman of the Special Parliamentary Committee on Communications, Hon. Marsh Narawec, (Wau/Waria, MP) voiced concern over the lack of organization within the media sector and questioned whether the Department could take a proactive role in reaching out to media professionals to facilitate union formation.Secretary Taunakekei responded, affirming that the Department will take the lead to initiate dialogue, through the committee’s recommendation. He proposed engaging with the Media Council of Papua New Guinea, as a starting point to promote unionization efforts.He assured the committee that immediate steps could be taken to initiate conversations and that the Department would keep Parliament informed of progress. He also referenced the Department’s website and the Office of the Industrial Registrar as resources for media workers interested in forming unions.The committee emphasized that the drive to establish a press union is fundamentally about safeguarding media freedom and journalistic integrity. Committee Chair Hon. Narawec reiterated the importance of government action in fostering an environment where media workers can organize freely, ensuring their rights are protected and their professional independence maintained.The Department of Labor has committed to initiating outreach efforts shortly and will engage with the Office of the Industrial Registrar to facilitate the process. Taunakekei assured the committee that future updates would include direct involvement from the Registrar’s office and ongoing engagement with media stakeholders.This hearing marks a significant step toward empowering Papua New Guinea’s media sector through formal unionization, in line with international standards and local laws.The approach by the Department of Labor highlights the government’s recognition of the importance of media workers’ rights in strengthening press freedom and maintaining the integrity of journalism in Papua New Guinea.

The NCD Governor’s Independence Nine’s Rugby League tournament has attracted close to 50 teams all around the National Capital District, Hiri-Koiari and Motu-Koita.Governor Powes Parkop launched the tournament on Friday 18 September at the Kone Tigers Rugby League oval with a sponsorship of K200, 000 through a Corporate Funding.Parkop said that the tournament was supposed to be part of the Independence event celebrations but due to so many other events happening during the Independence anniversary celebration week, he decided to have the tournament after Independence.According to NCD Suburban Sports Foundation Chairman – Mr. Billy Aki, this year’s tournament has seen teams coming in from Central province, Motu-Koita villages and all across Port Moresby city, including schoolboys and development teams also participating in the tournament.Aki highlighted that the tournament not only drew in a large number of teams but also exposed fresh young raw talents in the sport.

East New Britain Governor Hon. Michael Marum has called on the people of Rabaul to transform the painful memories of the 1994 twin volcanic eruptions into a renewed commitment to local leadership and community development.Speaking at the 32nd anniversary commemorations of the devastating eruptions of Tavurvur and Vulcan on 19 September 1994, Governor Marum emphasized that while the disaster changed Rabaul forever, it did not diminish the resilience and determination of its people.“The volcanoes destroyed homes, infrastructure, and livelihoods, but they did not destroy the spirit of Rabaul,” Governor Marum stated.He urged the community to view the anniversary as an opportunity to remember the past while looking forward to building a safer, stronger, and more prosperous future.One of the highlights of the commemoration was the opening of new community facilities at the Gelagela resettlement site. These include ward halls at Rabuana, Rapolo, Malex 2, Iawakaka, and Matalau, as well as a police post, a mediation hall, and a new fitness and training centre.Governor Marum described the ward halls as the “ward parliaments” of their communities, emphasizing their importance as spaces where residents can gather, hold meetings, raise issues, discuss priorities, and plan local development.He highlighted the vital role of grassroots development, stating, systems at the community level must be strengthened to allow development in the province. The governor further stated that the ward is where government meets the people, and the ward hall must become a place where voices are heard, and decisions are made.Governor Marum encouraged ward leaders, women, youth, churches, and community organizations to utilize these facilities actively, transforming them into centres of community participation and decision-making. He also acknowledged the contributions of local volunteers from Gelagela, who helped construct the new fitness and training centre, illustrating that development is a collective effort.“Our people must also take ownership of development. Government support is essential, but community effort is what drives real progress. The fitness and training centre is a prime example of what can happen when government and community work hand in hand,” Governor Marum said.He further stressed that the facility would serve as a platform for young people to develop sporting, fitness, and personal skills, creating positive pathways for the next generation.Reflecting on the history of Rabaul since 1994, Governor Marum described resilience as the defining trait of the community.“We must not simply rebuild what was lost; we must build forward. We must create new opportunities for our youth, strengthen infrastructure, support business and investment, promote tourism, and ensure our communities are better prepared for future disasters.”He called for ongoing collaboration with the national government, districts, local-level governments, development partners, churches, traditional leaders, businesses, and the community at large.“We cannot wait for Waigani to solve every problem for us. We must lead where we can, work with government where we must, and take responsibility for our future,” Marum stated.The new ward facilities symbolize practical investment in grassroots leadership, as Governor Marum stressed that the ward parliaments must remain active, with community members meeting regularly, discussing issues, setting priorities, and holding leaders accountable.Governor Marum reaffirmed that the anniversary was both a time to remember those affected by the 1994 disaster and an opportunity to renew the commitment to rebuilding Rabaul for future generations.“We remember the past. We learn from the past. But we will not live in the past. Rabaul is rising, East New Britain is rising, and together, our people will build the future we deserve,” concludes Governor Marum.
