Water PNG is leading efforts to clamp down on massive illegal use of water in its 19 provincial and district Business Centers throughout the country. Following a month-long amnesty period Water PNG recently deployed a task force to clamp down on water bandits who have increased massively and are drastically affecting its operations.

In connection with Asian Development Bank’s Water Operator Twinning Partnership Program between Water PNG as mentor and Kiribati Public Utilities Board (PUB) as recipient, Water PNG will be participating in the Recipient visit to Port Moresby and Lae from the 10^th – the 15^th of March 2014.

“Access to clean, safe water is a positive contribution to the lives of the people and will better the standard of living and stimulate economic growth.”

Water PNG Acting General Manager Engineering and Major Projects Mr. Ila Renagi said this on behalf of the Water PNG’s Acting Chief Executive and Managing Director Mr. Raka Taviri during the Ground Breaking Ceremony in Kerema, Gulf Province last Friday 8^th November 2013.
