I know of a couple (former schoolmates) who are working there, their children were born there, and they have called PNG home for the past 15 years. In fact, the guy is an officer of the Filipino association in PNG. Based on their stories, PNG is "safer" than the Philippines and if there's an existing association, then there must be quite a number of kababayans there.

I'll ask her the name of their association and also additional info (like lodging, people, food, taxes, transport, etc.) that could help you.

Hi!

My fiancee just got to live and work in POM last month. I'm really desperate to be there too, but i can't find any I.T. related jobs there. Could you please help me on getting a job there? or maybe with the help of your frined? I am a software developer here in Cebu, and had an experience on Management.

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

IT jobs in PNG is increasing rapidly. How about starting a business yourself in PNG. I believe there are business opportunities here in PNG you can venture into.

Let me know your thoughts. I am a Papua New Guinean based in Lae working as an IT Analyst.
