Mr Tomuriesa said this will ensure there is continuity of the work that Mr O’Neill and the previous government had carried out in the past five years. “I thank the people of PNG who have seen the confidence in the government of Prime Minister Peter O’Neill,” he said.
“I think it is important for continuity. I think it is also important that our partners and the business organisations can find confidence that the government can continue in the programs.”
Mr Tomuriesa said despite the country facing tough times economically, stability is needed to move forward.
“Papua New Guinea is going through a lot of tough times, speaking economically and other factors that are affecting our country. But we know that stability is important for us to continue,” Mr Tomuriesa said.
