TURNING THE TIDE: CORRUPTION AND MONEY LAUNDERING IN PNG

Abstract

Corruption has a vast impact on Papua New Guinea and its people. Addressing the humanitarian problems that it creates requires a joint proactive effort between Australia and Papua New Guinea. This article provides a critical and renewed insight into the ongoing money laundering in Papua New Guinea and the initiatives of Taskforce Sweep in combating corruption. The article suggests increased efforts by all institutions and persons involved while also placing an emphasis on the fragile, yet growing voices for accountability within Papua New Guinea.
