    About this ebook

    This report summarizes the results of an extensive survey of the business community on the challenges of doing business in Papua New Guinea. It finds that despite some improvement in the business environment following a similar survey conducted in 2002, progress has been disappointing. Many of the issues identified then still have a negative impact on investment and entrepreneurship. To ensure that the current resource boom is translated into sustainable prosperity, substantial reform is needed.
