Enriched by abundant natural resources, regional economic engagement, and new reforms, Papua New Guinea's (PNG) tiger economy is now the third largest in Oceania. PNG's government recently introduced new economic zones with concessions and tax reliefs in key areas across the country and, under 'Vision 2050,' aims to mobilise the country's increasingly urbanised middle-class and dynamic business community.
PNG's strengths in construction and infrastructure play an integral role in its economic prosperity, fuelled by resource-related projects like the USD 19 billion PNG LNG project operated by ExxonMobil. Looking ahead, the International Trade Administration (ITA) estimates future resource projects could inject billions of dollars into PNG's economy over the next two decades.

Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie
PARIS HILTON AND NICOLE RICHIE ARE READY TO BRING A LITTLE “SANASA” to the world with Peacock's Paris & Nicole: The Encore, their first project together since their reality show The Simple Life ended in 2007. What's “sanasa”? It's a song and phrase the longtime friends created as kids and popularized on The Simple Life. The show, a cultural phenomenon in the early days of reality TV, followed them over a series of blue-collar jobs. Now they're bringing it back as an opera. “I know this is just going to make people laugh, have fun, be nostalgic and just celebrate our friendship,” Hilton said. While Richie acknowledged “you can't do Simple Life again,” she said now “felt like the right time.” The famous pair also revisit some old jobs in Arkansas, like fast-food chain Sonic, where they now have drinks named for them. “I think that there is a part of our friend- ship that the show ended up showing that people connect to,” Richie said. As for this new special, Hilton is glad to do something positive for their fans. “It's been such a crazy past couple years, and I just feel like the world needs more joy.”
