ActNow [Papua New Guinea]

Government puts foreign interests above the law and demolishes an important democratic principle

إظهار جميع الإشارات
By passing amendments to the Environment Act, the government has put foreign companies above the law; allowed their commercial interests to trample all over the rights of Papua New Guinea’s traditional landowners; and undermined our democracy...[T]the amendments state that when the company carries out the approved activities it cannot be sued...and the activities cannot be an offence and cannot be unlawful....[N]o matter what harm the company causes to any person or group of persons they will have no recourse to the law...[refers to ExxonMobil]
