Deputy Opposition Leader Keith Iduhu, representing Hiri-Koiari, has sharply criticized recent tax law alterations in Papua New Guinea. Iduhu argues the shift towards centralized bureaucracies in Waigani poses a significant threat to both peace and economic stability within the country’s resource-rich provinces. The opposition fears this centralization will negatively impact infrastructure and governance in areas dependent on resource extraction. He warns this could lead to unrest and hinder economic development in these crucial regions of Papua New Guinea. Details of the concerns are included in a post on Post Courier, requiring a subscription for access. The opposition believes maintaining provincial control over resource management is vital for sustained prosperity.
