The O’Neil/Namah government has done it again, this time allocating a substantial amount of money towards healthcare. Last week, the Government declared that from then onwards, healthcare will be free in the country’s general hospitals. Port Moresby General Hospital received K50 Million whilst Lae, Goroko, Nonga and Boram each to receive K30 million and all remaining Provincial Hospitals to receive K10 Million each, all totaling to the amount of K350 Million. Of course we already have critics’ expressing their views against this saying the amount is not enough to cover all the hospitals’ bills, etc. But nonetheless, the people are happy as they are or will be directly benefiting from this as is from the free education assistance as well.
