Airports and Airstrips

Madang’s 55 rural airstrips need help

Madang Airstrip Coordinator Ray Romo said the Provincial government funding of K1.5 million this year is not enough to cater for the 55 airstrips in the province.

Romo is calling on newly appointed Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Nixon Duban, Rural Airstrips Authority (RAA) and the local MPs of each district to give funding to cater for the airstrips in their districts.
