Upon receiving the vessel on Wednesday, Regional MP, Michael Marum, and Pomio Open MP, Elias Kapavore, acknowledged the Filipino crew that brought the ship to PNG from South Korea.

“This is the same captain and a crew that brought the first ship, ‘MV Pomio 1’, to PNG in 2019. It needs commitment from the heart to sacrifice their time away from their families to bring the vessel over to PNG. So, thank you very much,” Kapavore said.
