A total of 100 graduands graduated today 19 of June 2026, comprising male detainees, female detainees, and juvenile detainees from the Pre-release Inmates Training Program. The program was sponsored by the Australian Government through AusAID funding, and the training was facilitated by Necktop Training Certificate and Business Program.

Madam Elizabeth Le Bas, Minister-Counsellor for Political & Security Affairs at the Australian High Commission, stated that the Australian Government is proud to support the Correctional Service in partnership. Over many years, this partnership has focused on building infrastructure and operational support. It now also includes training support for leadership development, inmate welfare, and rehabilitation. She expressed pride in this initiative and the results of 100 graduates from the business course here in Lae, Buimo, and said she is happy to continue support in the near future.

Invited guest Dr. Eric Kwa, Secretary and Chief Executive Officer of the Constitutional and Law Reform Commission of Papua New Guinea, also stated that this program and rehabilitation training will strengthen inmates’ applications for release on parole and license. If inmates are not rehabilitated, it raises concerns about releasing them into the community and whether they may pose a threat to public safety. Training of this kind is important as it helps improve inmate behavior and better prepares them for the future.

Today, 16 June 2026, was the official handover of the remaining 100+ PNGCS uniforms for Buimo Correctional Institution. The items handed over included: shirts, trousers, belts with the CS logo, maroon aiguillettes, maroon berets, and black polished shoes. For the first time, Buimo CI also received its own ceremonial sword. During the ceremony, Buimo CI requested a counterpart sword from the PNGDF Joint Force College.

The event was attended by the Morobe Provincial Administrator, Mr. Max Bruten, the Morobe Provincial Deputy Provincial Administrator, and the Governor of Morobe Province, Hon. Rainbo Paita, MP for Finschhafen, who participated in handing over the items to Buimo CI.

During the welcome and remarks, the Commanding Officer, Mr. Michael Wundia, submitted a written request for additional power support. He reported that Buimo CI, the officers’ residential area, barracks, and prison command experience frequent total blackouts. Therefore, he requested a generator to power Buimo CI.

Upon receiving the request, Governor Hon. Rainbo Paita took immediate note and directed the Provincial Administrator and his Deputy Provincial Administrator to take action. K400,000 was set aside for a standby generator as secondary power support. The Governor also directed the administration to install a solar power system as the primary power source.

The Governor further directed that funds be set aside for:
1. A 10-room female officers’ barracks
2. Renovation of the Buimo Correctional Institution Chapel
K20,000 was allocated for the chapel renovation works.

Governor Hon. Rainbo Paita stated: “What I am willing to assist, I order it. As we say in Finschhafen, ‘tongue language’ means I give the order and you execute the order.” He added that if further funds become available, he will continue to support Buimo Correctional Institution on any other issues that arise. For now, he has committed to: a solar power system, a standby generator, a 10-room female barracks, and chapel renovations.
