Greetings dear friends “wantoks” and guests. It is with pleasure that I welcome you to the website of the Embassy of the Independent State of Papua New Guinea in Japan. Please enjoy the site, especially the information provided which we hope will be useful in your research, and why not, plans to visit our country of 1,000 tribes, and communities over oceans, islands, the highlands, the coastal and rivers.
As our country grows , its global connections flourish, including with Japan, as we offer the almost “limitless” opportunities for business and pleasure within the rich cultural diversity and excitement that abound in our nation of 8 million people.

Once again, it is my pleasure to WELCOME YOU and THANK YOU for visiting our website.
