2016 Water PNG National Conference

Poor economy affects Water PNG performance

Board Chairman, William Sweet, told Loop PNG that 2016 has been a challenging year for them as they have not been able to meet all their targets.

This largely due to non-payment of services.

“A lot of profit margins have dropped simply because payments are owed, and a lot of them are government facilities.

“But we also have some private sectors that are also struggling and so we appreciate that times are a bit hard at the moment so we are trying to be patient but at the same time we all have to earn the money to pay for the services,” says Sweet.

Practice quality lives, WPNG Managers told

WPNG Board Chairman, William Sweet, made the remark in day one of the organization’s 2016 National Conference in Port Moresby.

He said ‘quality’ meant more than just providing a service but practicing it as a daily routine.

“The principles that I’m referring to have to do with yourself. Have to do with how you do your daily business, (and) your daily work,” said Sweet.
