Kikori district gets new ship

Maipakai said despite its late delivery, he on behalf of his people, thanked Karridale Limited for replacing the district’s ship capsized at the Korean waters more than five years ago due to technical faults.

The ship arrived at Maipakai’s private dockyard to a hero’s welcome.

“We have waited for its replacement for more than five years. The reason for the waiting time is the first ship we acquired sank in Korean waters. The buyer had to go out and looked for a new one. Karridate Limited PNG has finally delivered the ship,” Maipakai said.
