Where is billboard for Minj police housing project?

THE bill board diplomacy has not gone down well with many public when all projects funded by both the Government and the Jiwaka provincial government.
All this have commenced without the bill board being erected on the site to educate the public about a particular project and its specification.
Many public projects during the term of the previous Jiwaka Provincial Government has received much criticisms because the public were denied sufficient information as to who funded the project, how much was allocated and who won the tender on the project.
It is said there never existed a Jiwaka provincial tenders board in the last 10 years and all projects applications for tender purposes were being administered by the national tender’s board.
May be that could have been the halt on the bill board thing as most projects in Jiwaka upon inspection did not have a bill board and the responsibility was on the provincial tender’s board.
Furthermore, whether a project is fully funded or jointly funded by the government, the project description as it has to provide as it serves two purposes that, once a project is completed the public can be able to make a balanced assessment of the project against the total sum of money allocated and against the contractor.
The case in point is the new police housing scheme in Minj, that saw the cleaning of the vegetation, which has taken an enormous shape with gravel being hauled to site, however, without a bill board leaving the public to compete in the guess work on the total number of houses to be built and on the architectural features of the building.
The challenge is now on the newly sworn Jiwaka provincial tenders board to provide a bill board on the Minj police housing project and this has to take an immediate effect so that the public in Minj are kept abreast on the development projects in their town.
