President Toroama: lawbreakers will not be permitted to derail Bougainville’s future

The Autonomous Bougainville Government (ABG) is pushing back hard against fears of rising anti-mining sentiment, reassuring international investors, development partners, and contractors that their assets and personnel are secure despite a recent violent breach at a key mining camp.

The strong intervention follows a security breakdown at the Lloyds Metals Energy Limited (LMEL) camp in Panguna, a site central to the region’s high-stakes economic strategy.
