  • Papua New Guinea at a Glance: 2001-02
    COUNTRY REPORT Papua New Guinea At a glance: 2001-02 OVERVIEW The government has been making progress in implementing its economic reform programme. However, economic activity in all sectors has been fairly subdued in 2000. The EIU estimates real GDP growth of 2.9% in 2000 and forecasts 3.8% in 2001 and 7.0% in 2002. Economic activity will pick up in the next few years with the development of major minerals and gas projects. Growth will also be driven by stronger domestic demand as interest rates fall. Inflation remained high in 2000 but should fall in 2001 and 2002 as price stability becomes the primary focus of the Bank of Papua New Guinea (the central bank). The current account will remain in surplus in 2001 but will fall into deficit as imports of capital equipment for these projects rise significantly in 2002. The kina is steadily depreciating but should remain in an acceptably narrow trading range in 2001 and 2002 as capital inflows counterbalance the increasing demand for imports. Key changes from last month Political outlook • Sir Mekere Morauta has reshuffled his cabinet again in an attempt to rid the government of disloyal members. The former prime minister, Sir Michael Somare, was the latest casualty. He was dismissed for not voting with the government on the integrity bill. The bill was eventually passed by a vote of 84-0. Economic policy outlook • Changes to the tax regime for gas, oil and mining, announced in the 2001 budget should encourage new exploration and development in these areas. Economic forecast • We have revised downwards our estimate for GDP growth in 2000 from 4.1% to 2.9% following a decline in economic activity in all sectors.

  • Masalai I Tokaut
    Masalai i tokaut Number Twenty Three: 12 September 2003 Aid debate masks the government’s commitment to continuing with corruption The Prime Minister is using the current debate on aid as a smokescreen to cover his own inability to take effective measures to deal with corruption. The National Alliance swept to victory in the 2002 election on a raft of promises to deal with our endemic corruption: an end to nepotism, fair and transparent appointments, the prosecution of offenders, the denial of office for those under investigation and an Independent Commission Against Corruption. Not only has the government failed to deliver on its promises it has been actively involved in promoting corruption especially in the forestry sector where there have been a raft of illegal logging deals and numerous instances of political interference. These are the issues that have prompted action from the Asian Development Bank, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and now the Australian Government. These institutions can see behind the blatant hypocrisy of our government to the clear fact that it is the ruling elite who continues to abuse the system at the expense of ordinary people. While Sir Michael may huff and puff about sovereignty and interference, Masalai asks if it is his own failures that he should be answering for? Michael Somare labelled the previous government “the most corrupt ever” in the run up to the 2002 national elections. He derided the Peoples Democratic Party for its failure to deal with issues like Concord Pacific and its involvement in illegal logging, the passport scam, the multi billion dollar loan proposals and the protection that it received from a wide net of political friends.
