Questions on Manus deal need answering

YOUR article on Australian agency breaching PNG law in the Manus processing centre raises a lot of questions in regard to the agreement that was signed between the PNG and Australian governments.
We, the landowners of Los Negros Island have raised such concerns with the PNG authorities at the camp since the opening but nothing was done.
The Australian camp management company and their service providers have broken so many of our laws, including dumping of camp refuse in dug shallow pits, dumping of raw sewage in the sea, dumping of asbestos in the bushes, non-payment of superannuation for employees, and now allowing the asylum seekers to walk freely in a foreign country.
The Minister for Health seems ignorant of the health issues at the camp when there is a government agency which is there to ensure that the Australian government complies with our laws.
We have expressed such concerns of no control of Australian illegal activities but the PNG Immigration Office have compromised their positions because of inducements from the camp management and service providers.
Our two politicians claim to have no control but are now vocal about the economic and social impacts toward the province.
The camp is almost closing and it is now late to talk about Australia breaching our laws because the landowners, the Los Negros LLG, and the Manus people have been the great losers of all the benefits.
The PNG Government has broken all the laws and allowed Australia to do the same.
While it is impossible to get into or reside in Australia without honouring its laws, they have allowed the asylum seekers to roam the streets of Lorengau, get away into all parts of Manus and break all our laws.
