DICT I PNG

I am delighted that after negligence and failure of successive governments to utilize ICT to transform public service delivery,
the Marape Government, not only recognizes, but also is enabling
a policy and legislative framework of ICT that will lead to reduction
of public expenditure and deliver public services in a more effective and efficient manner, and put citizens’ interest first.

Hon. Timothy Masiu
Minister for Information and Communications Technology

Papua New Guinea over the past decade has adopted digital technology platforms to undertake communication and likewise use technology to conduct business. There is now shying away from these technological innovations. What is lacking is the absence of a whole of Government approach through a consolidated policy and legal framework to govern the digital space such as digital communication infrastructures, digital services standards and guidelines, digital skills, digital cyber and privacy
