WHy now and not then?It could be that "then" there was a sometimes adversarial, sometimes agreeable, relationship between Big Men at IOC and Big Men of PNG.

PNG needs a smooth operator as minister for petroleum, a more professional minister, to engage with the smooth operators of the companies now entering PNG.
Thank you Thy.
