New radio advert calls on PM to cancel fraudulent agricultural leases

A new radio advert on the SABL land grab has hit the airwaves in PNG.

The advert calls on Prime Minister Peter O'Neill to cancel the fraudulent SABL leases and stop the illegal logging.

Peter O'Neill has released two Commission of Inquiry reports that expose widespread fraud in the issuing of SABL leases over more than 5 million hectares of customary land.

Despite the Prime Minister acknowledging the widespread fraud and accusing foreign companies of duping landowners and stealing their forests, the PM has taken no action to cancel the leases or stop the logging.

The advert, funded by Bismarck Ramu Group and ACT NOW!, is being broadcast on three radio stations - LegendFM, NauFM and YumiFM.
