In this explosive Papua New Guinea Parliament session, Opposition Leader James Nomane and Governor Allan Bird put Prime Minister James Marape under intense scrutiny over the latest Cabinet reshuffle and major structural reforms to Treasury, Finance, and State-Owned Enterprises.

Key Highlights:
• Opposition raises serious concerns over the removal of William Bundo from the Coffee Ministry
• “Structure Follows Strategy” – Why the PM made these changes with 8 months to the 2027 Election
• Warrant function moved from Treasury to Finance – Will this risk PNG’s FATF greylisting?
• Major shake-up in Kumul Consolidated Holdings (KCH) and SOEs – Creating conflict of interest?
• PM Marape explains convoluted bureaucracy, PNG Power issues, and why Planning, Treasury & Finance roles were redefined
• Response to claims of reversing McCary-era reforms post-1999 financial crisis
• Central Bank independence and Reset 2050 recommendations

Is the government streamlining for better service delivery or risking financial stability? Watch the full heated exchange.
