From Ise Titus on Uncertainty surrounds PNG’s local government elections
Why did the LLG now not receiving LLG SIP as used to be in the previous?
LLG is a third tier of the national procurement which hails its laws.
From Torato Rato on PNG’s rural decay: a personal perspective (Part 3)
What an informative and compelling piece by Andrew Anton Mako. If anyone needed further evidence that ‘technical capacity building’ is not the answer to Pacific Island development, this is it; as in all nations, power, conflict and leadership are the nexus and if donors want to have any influence in contributing to positive change, they seriously and intelligently need to engage with the realities that this author has so clearly outlined – and stop outsourcing this work to discredited ‘projectised’ modalities.

From Theo Michael on Uncertainty surrounds PNG’s local government elections
LLGs were introduced as PNG’s third tier of government in 1995 when the Organic Law on Provincial and Local Level Governments was passed — with provinces being the first tier and districts the second. I think there's a correction to be made here..
National government is a government, with a house of assembly with Provincial government being the second tier.. with the LLGs being the third tier.
District was established as an administrative divisions (body) and does not have the powers to pass laws unlike those mentioned above.
From Sasah Tangabo on Self-discovery through education

From Henry Konaka on Provincial revenue in PNG: inequitable, volatile and stagnant
Excellent piece of data and evidence on the disparity across sub-nationaal levels.
A rethink of intergovernmental financing is critical.
Funding formula needs to be reviewed.
Can I get copy of your report?
From Andrew Magaiva on Uncertainty surrounds PNG’s local government elections
LLGs are vitally important in the 3 arms of government, hence be considered a priority in financial aspects to keep the database up to date within the government organisations as well as NGOs.
From Richard Tapil on Provincial revenue in PNG: inequitable, volatile and stagnant
thankyou for such informative note
From Emmanuel Silata on January riots in PNG: underlying causes, implications and the future
Great point Jane Mills. It's good to express our view from wealth of our experience. PNG is in a state profiling good and bad, there are numerous issues outline demanded solutions. I strongly believe that, if we are well fed and continue to be over spoon feed by colonizer, we won't have a colourful history. Our upcoming generation will be privilege to profile good and bad, know how to read between line and take this nation forward successfully because we gave them change to learn and create balance from our history moving forward.
From Lancelot Kamake on Uncertainty surrounds PNG’s local government elections
Inconsistency in the actual number of LLGs in the country shows lack of prominence given to our third tier system of government in respect to planning.
LLGs already lack financial autonomy and this is only an affirmation of the degree of recognition given to the LLG system.
