BOUGAINVILLE is facing possibility of not meeting requirements of referendum and independence if it fails to handle outstanding issues seriously, a top private sector representative says.
Outstanding issues facing the Bougainville administration include bills it owes to business houses for services rendered many years ago, weapons disposal program, emergence of Asian businesses in Bougainville and issue of referendum and independence.
Bougainville Chamber of Com-merce has accused ABG administration for not taking referendum and independence seriously because of these outstanding issues.
BCC executive Thomas Rabanz told Post-Courier yesterday that the administration “does not know where its priorities are and it does not know how to set priorities”.
Mr Momis, as a leader, he should not be blamed for this if there is any failure.
“His implementers are the ones. Evidence of lack of total negligence is based on not paying attention to service rendered,” Mr Rabanz said.
“The 2004 NEC approved list is still not yet settled. It’s not Mr Momis’ job to administer this and sort this out, it is the administration’s job. Business leaders have passed away with pressure from this and I pay tribute to the JOMIK boss and Cletus Harepa.
“Also, weapons disposal should not prolong the issue of independence or referendum. It is the duty of the administration to find a solution. Does the administration know where to go?
“I’ve also a big concern for Asians coming into the region to do business but again it is not Momis’ issues to sort out, it is the work of the administration to handle.”
