The occasion was witnessed by Nasfund Chief Executive Officer Ian Tarutia. Mr. Iminup thanked the Fund for opening this new facility.
“With the service centre now located in the busy market area, those of us who work within
the market area don’t have to go far to access Nasfund services.
Thank you Nasfund.”
CEO Tarutia said it is a welcome addition, as the fund ramps up its services to members in this part of the country, especially as the province looks set to meet the demands of increasing business activities and economic opportunities on the back of the Wafi Golpu Mine.
“We are pleased to add the second Lae Service Centre to our Nasfund branch network. oreso, as Lae and Morobe Province as a whole is the second largest membership base of the Fund.
Morobe Province accounts for over 111,000 Nasfund members from across 300 employers, which constitutes approximately 18% of the Fund’s total membership – a good number of whom work within this busy industrial area.
We are confident that our membership within the busy Lae market area and surrounding industrial precinct will take ownership of this Service Centre, and utilize the services offered here.
The opening of this centre is part of efforts to improve our service to members, all across the country.
In the coming weeks, we will also be opening our new and improved service centres in Milne Bay Province, as well as two additional service centres in NCD.
Whilst we open this Service Centre, we also encourage our members to utilize our on line electronic channels, which includes our Call Centre, Member Online Portal, the Mobile Phone App, or Mobile SMS facilities.
