People suffering from lack of disaster relief funds

 WE are raising our concerns regarding the drought situation in Western Province. 

It is more than 3 months and there is still no positive response from the Western Provincial Administration office.  

In this province, OkTedi Mining Limited was our government. Now that it is on the stand-by, we have no government, our members and governor are nowhere to be seen.

All we hear from the provincial administration in Kiunga: We have not money.

For years, the money from the Ok Tedi mine in our province was sent to the Government to develop other provinces. 

PNGSDP has contributed enormous sums of money from this province for so many projects here and all over the country.  

It is unjust that the money for the province is frozen in the court. 

Can the National Government release the funds allocated to serve the people of the Western? 

Prime Minister, how can you be so generous to some provinces while ignoring Western?
