Focus on implementing NEC’s foreign policies

National

FOREIGN Affairs Minister Soroi Eoe has congratulated his predecessor Rimbink Pato for his excellent services to the nation as the longest-serving Foreign Affairs Minister.
“You (Pato) have served for seven years and you have left behind a big shoe for me to fit in,” he said.
“However, I will do my best to serve the country like you did and I will work closely with the professional staff of the department.”
Eoe said this during the handover ceremony in Port Moresby on Tuesday.
He has been a public servant for 30 years, as an anthropologist with the National Museum and Art Gallery.
“I was involved with international organisation like United Nations Educational, Scientific and Educational Organisation and have travelled overseas and have visited PNG’s overseas missions (embassies and high commission) and I know some of you senior departmental officers,” he said.
“We will be working together to implement our country’s foreign policy especially when the National Executive Council has made the decision to bring back the
Trade division back to Foreign Affairs.”
