Lukim PNG Nau Expo

The PNG Tourism Industry Association Inc, in partnership with the PNG Tourism Authority, will for the first time host the event out of Port Moresby.

The 6th tourism expo will kick off with the tourism week training and awareness workshop from 20-21 September, before the three-day expo from Sept 23-25 at the exotic Rapopo Plantation Resort.

PNG Tourism Industry Association Executive Manager, Christine Peipul, says the events will be an opportunity for operators in the tourism industry from the New Guinea Islands region to dominate the event.

Office of Tourism, Arts and Culture presented the cheque today from its Tourism Development Program funds to PNG Tourism Promotion Authority (PNG TPA) to assist with preparations for the expo.

The Lukim PNG Nau Expo and Tourism Week are scheduled from September 21-27 in Port Moresby, at Stanley Hotel organised by the Tourism Industry Association (TIA) and PNG TPA.

Minister for Tourism, Arts and Culture Tobias Kulang said the weeklong event is very important in tourism development as tourism is an economic driver and a contributor to PNG’s development.
