Good evening wantoks!

Just saw this in the Post Courier and was wondering where exactly this logging operation is taking place.

Please help Milne Bay

I RAISE my concern regarding the current logging company operating in Milne Bay Province.
The company has already destroyed a vast area of rich fertile rainforest. It is about time the Government stops this particular logging company from logging the area, no matter what TRP area or Timber Authority (TA) rights are. My very concern is that the logging company is removing billions of kina out of the resource owner and the province as a whole.
The company is destroying resources like forests, fresh water fish, animals of all species and birds and butterflies of all species that bring tourist attractions. Can the Government build road infrastructure which is the basic area of development right into the communities to help the grassroots bring their produce out. Also, can the Papua New Guinea Eco-Forestry move its members right to the people and train them and assist them to look after their environment.
