By Aloysius Laukai
The ABG President, Chief DR. JOHN MOMIS last night thanked the Bougainville women for freely speaking their minds.
Speaking at the close of the two-days Special Bougainville Women’s Forum, President MOMIS said that he believed in consultations and such forums have gauged the views of the people of Bougainville on issues that can affect them now and in the future.
President MOMIS said that the ABG wants all Bougainvilleans to give in their views on mining that is if they want it re-opened what other issues must be addressed with the re-opening.
And if they donot want it re-opened they must also give in their alternatives.
He said that now that the women have made their views known, the government will continue to seek more views from the people of Bougainville.
New Dawn FM understands that the ABG Mining Department has organized similar forums for Ex- Combatants, and other leaders in North Bougainville, Central Bougainville and South Bougainville which included the BANA district who are a special as their lives have been destroyed by the tailings from the mine and a final for the people of Panguna people is still outstanding.
New Dawn FM will run a special program on the Group presentations on Monday.
