LOGGING PRACTICES IN PNG

Quoting Radio New Zealand – 30 July 2018

“Environmental NGO Global Witness released a report today that is based on observations of eight of the largest logging operations in PNG.

“Its policy advisor Lela Stanley said all of the operations they observed had been breaking forestry laws, but were still exporting wood.

Lela Stanley also said illegal logging was having a huge impact on the ecology and environment in PNG, and that every year that the government failed to enforce its own forestry laws, the worse the issue was becoming.”
