Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP) commends the Enga Show Committee for successfully staging last weekend’s cultural show which was held from the 11th -12th of August.
CCEP Commercial and Sales Director Tim Solly echoed the sentiments as a Diamond sponsor of the cultural show.
Despite Major Law and Order issues and major tribal fights in the province over the previous months, the Enga Show attracted more than 10 thousand people into Wabag town, a turnout that was not expected.
“We have received nothing but praise from the positive impact the show has had over the two days, and this of course is due to the unwavering commitment from the Show Committee under the leadership of Chairlady Margaret Potane, her hardworking committee and the Enga Provincial Government.”
Mr Solly said, despite many challenges faced by the province, Coca-Cola understands that since 1994, this cultural event continues to take place to remind, showcase and pass down cultural practices amongst the Engan people.
“The resilience of the people of Enga, who have worked tirelessly over the years to establish the Enga Cultural Show to what it is today, is outstanding and we are proud to associate our brand with this event.”
Coca-Cola and its Bottler CCEP PNG, anticipates the Enga Show to continue to be a drawcard for many international and local visitors and looks forward to partnering with the organisers into the future.
