The late PNG flag designer’s husband, Nanny Huhume, told Loop PNG that after more than 3 weeks of waiting, the government finally contacted them on Monday.
“We went to the National Executive Council’s office and were given the assurance that the body belongs to the state now,” says Nanny.
“When they are ready, they will let me know whether Mama (Susan) will have a state funeral or not.”
The family is hoping that their mother could also be buried on Independence Hill.
