World Bank’s annual ‘Ease of doing business’

PNG rises in ‘Ease of doing business’ - report

This year’s edition of the report has placed PNG 119th out of 190 economies, after placing 133 in 2015.

This is primarily due to improvements in starting a business and getting credit.

In an interview with Business Advantage PNG, Lae Chamber of Commerce and Industry President, Alan McLay, says that the statistics primarily reflect the ease of doing business in Port Moresby, rather than the rest of the country.
