The Divisional Commander for Highlands Eastern Divisional Command has recently taken his first ever visit to provinces under his authority.
Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Nema Mondiai this week visited Chimbu Province, followed by Jiwaka and Western Highlands.
The trip was to familiarise himself with policing within his command.
On Sunday he visited Chuave, Monday he was at Gembogl and on Tuesday he was at Gumine, followed by Kerowagi yesterday.
He will be at Minj and Nondugl today and Friday at Banz and Jimi respectively, before returning back to Mount Hagen over the weekend and prepare for the Western Highlands leg of the tour.
The purpose of his tour was to see the challenges his officers encounter daily.
He also had dialogue with district representatives to see how best they can address policing issues, including housing.
This is the first visit the Commander has undertaken in many years. He will follow it through with an inspection before the end of the year.
