    Country Report Papua New Guinea Papua New Guinea at a glance: 2004-05 OVERVIEW The governing coalition, led by the prime minister, Sir Michael Somare, should have a large enough parliamentary majority to defeat a no-confidence motion, if such a motion eventuates. However, the political scene remains unsettled, and the government’s effectiveness will be limited. The economic outlook is fairly positive for 2004-05. Inflationary pressures are easing, and improvements in agriculture, mining and oil activity should contribute to a pick-up in real GDP growth of more than 2% a year in 2004-05. The current account will remain in surplus in 2004, but will shift into deficit in 2005 as export revenue slips. Key changes from last month Political outlook • The opposition applied for a motion of no confidence in early July, but its application was rejected on “technical grounds”. If Sir Michael is eventually subjected to a motion of no confidence, he should have sufficient support in parliament to defeat it, barring extraordinary circumstances. Economic policy outlook • In the first quarter the government spent only 2% of its development budget. Therefore, there will be pressure on ministries and government agencies to speed up spending, particularly counterpart spending to facilitate the disbursement of international aid. Economic forecast • The kina continues to appreciate against the US dollar. By early July the kina had strengthened by around 6% compared with its value at end-2003. Stronger import demand will put some downward pressure on the kina during the remainder of the 2004.

    Loggers, Donors and Resource Owners PAPUA NEW Papua New Guinea Is Well Endowed with Tropical Forest, Almost All of Which Is Held by Local People Under Customary Title

    Policy thatworksforforestsandpeople Loggers, donors and resource owners PAPUA NEW Papua New Guinea is well endowed with tropical forest, almost all of which is held by local people under customary title. But the forest sector is in a mess. Over the last ten years a major national process G UINEA of policy and institutional reform has sought to sort out the sector, but some key features of PNG society continue to frustrate this process. The ‘ideology of resource ownership’ is the core of national identity, yet it undermines the potential for diversified economic development based on the use or value of land and forests. Also, a widespread obsession with the pursuit of personal political power grows alongside an equally widespread loss of faith in the ability of government to deliver social and economic devel- opment. These contradictions help to explain why the national policy process centres on a struggle between the logging industry and donor agencies for the hearts and minds of the resource owners. Whilst this struggle throws up many problems, it also presents opportunities for establishing a new approach to policy for forests and people. This would establish the common ground upon which a wider coalition of interests - a new ‘policy community’ - could be built. Opportunities include: developing mechanisms for testing and publicising claims to productive innovation; combining different scales of No: 2 NewGuinea Papua Sekhran with Filer enterprise; generating a vision of the public interest through dialogue; and installing a brokering mechanism to connect needs with existing capacities. Policy that works for forests and people series Forest issues often concern large amounts of money, long timeframes, huge areas of land, and diverse livelihoods.

    PART 3: THE LIMITS OF INDEPENDENCE Chapter 12 Independence and its Discontents apua New Guineans handled the transition to independence with flair, despite their Plimited experience, the speed with which they had to act and the explosive agenda that they inherited. With great skill and some luck, they brought their country united to independence with new institutions, a new public service, a guaranteed income and a home-made constitution. A Failing State? The coalition that achieved these feats tottered in 1978 when Julius Chan took the PPP into opposition, and collapsed in March 1980 when the Leader of the Opposition, Iambakey Okuk, won a no-confidence motion, naming Chan as preferred Prime Minister. Chan had quit the coalition over the attempt to buttress the Leadership Code (Chapter 9) and disagreement on relations between private business and public office. Somare returned to office after the 1982 election but once again he was ousted in mid- term by a vote of no confidence, yielding to the ambitious young Western Highlander Paias Wingti. The pattern was now set, whereby coalitions are formed after an election but no government survives the fixed five-year parliamentary term. Votes of no confi- dence are the mechanism for replacing one opportunist coalition with another. By this device, Wingti was replaced by Rabbie Namaliu, who yielded to Wingti again, who was replaced by Chan, whose coalition collapsed in the wake of a bungled attempt to employ mercenaries (see below). After the 1997 election, Bill Skate — a gregarious accountant from Gulf Province, Governor of Port Moresby and cheerful opportunist — held a Cabinet together for nearly two years.

    Papua New Guinea

    Country Report Papua New Guinea Papua New Guinea at a glance: 2005-06 OVERVIEW The prime minister, Sir Michael Somare, is likely to see out his full term in office, defeating any no-confidence vote. The political scene nevertheless remains unsettled, with a number of parties suffering internal splits. By contrast, the economic outlook is fairly good. The government has maintained control of its fiscal position, inflation has eased sharply, and improvements in agricultural and mining output should contribute to steady real GDP growth in 2005-06. However, the current-account balance will deteriorate steadily in 2005-06, in line with rising imports related to mining activity and infrastructure projects. Key changes from last month Political outlook • A new autonomous government on the island of Bougainville has been established, marking a milestone in the development of Papua New Guinea (PNG). The newly elected government was inaugurated in mid-June, with Joseph Kabui, the leader of the Bougainville People’s Congress securing the presidency. Economic policy outlook • Although the government has succeeded in maintaining a tight grip on expenditure, leading to an improvement in the budget balance, it has failed to utilise its development expenditure budget to support sustainable economic growth. In the first quarter of 2005 the government spent only around 3% of its full-year development budget. Economic forecast • The Economic Intelligence Unit has revised upwards its forecast for global crude oil prices, one of PNG’s leading export commodities. Oil prices will increase by 31% year on year in 2005 to an average of US50.5/barrel (dated Brent Blend), before dipping to US$46.5/b in 2006.

Table of Contents Executive Summary i Introduction 1 Conceptual Issues 2 Ethnic Cleavages: A Brief Description 6 Socio-Economic Inequalities 10 Politics of Ethnicity and Nationalism 20 The Management of Ethnicity in the Public Sector 23 Political Parties 23 Parliament 28 Executive 33 Civil Service 38 Institutional Reforms: Affirmative Action 42 Analysis 52 Conclusion 62 Bibliography 73 Executive Summary Papua New Guinea is indeed a multipolar, ethnically fragmented society. This presents unique problems to governance and the management of inequality in public sector institutions – political parties, the parliament, cabinet and the civil service. The clash of values between traditions and Western democracy and capitalism has meant that elite consensus is thwarted in many issues and instances. This has resulted in the instability of the political parties, the parliament and executive (or cabinet), and political interference in the civil service. The performance of these institutions in the management of governance, inequality, and the ethnic diversity in the country has not been effective. Accordingly Papua New Guinea was ranked 133 out of 170 nations in the 2000 Human Development Report of the United Nations Development Programme. The living standards of the people have not been significantly improved over the past 28-29 years of nationhood. Ironically, Papua New Guinea is surviving democracy. As a developing country, its democratic longevity has spanned some 40 years unlike other developing countries that have had their democratic systems disrupted in less than 20 to 25 years of statehood.
