The “transaction advisory services agreement” was signed last Thursday and will see the development of the new airport feature through a public-private partnership (PPP).

Marcelo Minc, ADB Country Director for PNG says “ADB has been a key development partner to NAC for several years through the landmark Civil Aviation Development Investment Program.”

The workshop is about coordination between all security agencies based at the Jacksons Airport

Security personnel from different stakeholder agencies like CASA, Police, National Airport Corporation (NAC), Air Niugini security as well as other security agents who are based at the airport all took part in the one day workshop.

The training covered how and which stakeholder would play a lead role in security and protection of the major events that PNG will be hosting in the city.

Minister for Minister for Civil Aviation Davis Steven says he is passionate about making sure that NAC becomes an employer of choice.

Steven said staff welfare is vital in the daily operations of the organisation.

He said NAC must become an employer that is proud to say that its staff from the top to the bottom is happy to be part of this organisation.

Steven also challenged the board to look into establishing and improving rural airstrips to connect the disconnected communities.

Minister for Civil Aviation Davis Steven says the current preparations for 2018 APEC Summit are underway and expectations on the civil aviation sector are already been noted.

Steven said NAC is managing our gateway particularly the international terminal and the landing facilities.

In 2010, the Canadian firm Jacobs Consulting, completed a 20-year master plan for Port Moresby Airport.

The Master Plan suggested two options for long term International Terminal building.
