ENB Autonomy

He made the pledge at a gathering in the Lassul-Baining LLG of the Gazelle District last weekend.

“Autonomy for East New Britain is one of the priorities of my provincial Government,” Konga said to his people.

“As the country is aware the push for ENB autonomy has been going on for the past fourteen years, however with very little head way,” he said.

Konga said one of the main reasons is there was very little unity and a vision between all bodies involves in the process for attaining autonomy status for the provinces.

He said this when launching the campaign of three THE Party Candidates in Kokopo on Saturday.

They include former MP Sir Sinai Brown (ENB Regional), Bruno Railam (Kokopo Open), and Pius Mano (Pomio Open).

According to a statement, Polye said ENB’s road to autonomy will be off the back of tourism and heavy investments in the agriculture  sector.

Polye said the current laws governing land did not favour landowners and these would be reviewed.
