NIP Governor Sir Julius Chan

Sir J impressed With Bokam Road Progress

“It took only six hours for the entire trip. Just a decade ago, this would have been impossible by car.  It was only a walking track and would have taken days to complete, if you could do it at all.

“I am amazed and more than satisfied at the current state and progress of the road works. Many could never have imagined that a road of this quality could finally be built, and I commend local contractor, MAYNIPS for taking on this difficult and challenging job,” he said.   

NIP govt to manage province’s TFF policy

A memorandum of agreement (MOA) was signed with the National Government on Friday (March 16) afternoon.

Education Minister Nick Kuman said New Ireland is the second province, apart from Enga, to be given these functions.

“This is because it has the capacity and prudent management systems to be able to deliver the TFF Policy at the sub-national level,” stated Kuman.
