Prime Minister James Marape has praised Haom Builders for their successful completion of the K10.6 million Coffee Industry Corporation Ltd (CICL) Coffee Exports Office Complex in Lae, Morobe province. The building was officially opened recently and is set to play a vital role in the coffee export industry. It will serve as a central hub for various operations related to coffee exports, enhancing efficiency and quality control. The timing of this opening is significant, as China has lifted biosecurity restrictions on Papua New Guinea's agricultural products, including coffee. This creates new opportunities for trade and growth in the agricultural sector. Marape emphasized the importance of supporting local contractors, advocating for Papua New Guineans to take on more projects. He encouraged citizens to engage in meaningful work and complete their commitments, highlighting the need for accountability in construction projects.
