Police Commissioner Gari Baki says he will make an attempt to speak with the university student leaders.
Baki told Loop PNG that he has members on ground to work with the students to create dialogue with student leaders.
He adds despite general perception, the police are on hand to ensure public order is maintained at all times.
Meanwhile, NCD metropolitan police Commander Ben Turi says no official word has been given to his office about requests to hold protests at the University of PNG.
For now as per directions, Turi explains that while the students are still within campus and have not taken to the streets, the police can only monitor the situation on ground at the main UPNG campus at Waigani.
