An article from the National newspaper for today.
Something to be proud of. It is good that Governor Ipatas and Minister Abal friendly. It is good that Minister Polye, Vice Minister Kikala and Member Kaoek all team up for the good of Enga Province.
Am proud, well done.

Disciplined forces add colour to Wabag celebrations
By PHILIP KEPSON
WABAG in Enga province came alive on Tuesday as more than 100 disciplinary forces personnel marched through the town to join hundreds in celebrating the country’s 33rd Independence Day.
The pipes and drums band from the Bomana jail outside Port Moresby in NCD and 40 personnel from the PNG Defence Force Bravo Company led the march.
They were joined by locals and hundreds of uniformed children from 10 community schools within Wabag.
The marchers started assembling from the Ipatas Centre in the morning to the Wabag Primary School before they were joined by members of the public.
Foreign Affairs and Immigration Minister Sam Abal, who is also Wabag MP, and Governor Peter Ipatas were given a guard of honour by the disciplinary forces on their arrival at the school before a capacity crowd.
The celebrations ended with speeches by Mr Abal and Mr Ipatas and an inter-school soccer competition.
Similar celebrations were held at Amapiaka International School where traditional dancers from Western Highlands, Bougainville and Enga provinces performed.
Mr Ipatas, who was the guest honour, donated K5,000 to help meet the expenses during the celebration.
