Proposed New PNG Work Visas
The PNG Government will soon debate amendments to ease restrictions on foreign skilled workers and technical specialists to allow speedier access to performing emergency repairs at project sites around the country. The Acting Prime Minister Sir Puka Temu spoke of the changes this week announcing the National Executive Council had approved this new class of visa to be known as the Restricted Employment Visa (REV). It is hoped that this initiative will improve productivity in major resource projects and is supported by the business community.
