Telikom PNG Looks Forward to host PITA 27 AGM Business Forum and Expo in Port Moresby

 Telikom Limited is excited and look forward to play host to the 2023 Pacific Information Telecommunication Association's  27 AGM Business Forum and Expo General Meeting Conference this year.

Telikom Limited's Chief Executive Officer, Mr Amos Tepi, said the conference will be held at Stanley Hotel in Port Moresby from the 29th May- 1st of June 2023, with close to three hundred delegates from around the Pacific, expected to attend.

According to Chairman of Telikom Board Cedrick Rondoke, PITA has been around for more than sixty years but has never hosted  any conference in any of the member Pacific Island countries.

“This year, Telikom was given the rights to host the conference for this year, and we are excited.

“PITA will meet all travel and accommodation costs, while Telikom will only meet  the cost of hosting the actual event, which will be first of its kind, ,” Mr Rondoke said.

Telikom is currently working with KCH  in its  preparations towards hosting this conference.

It is understood a Diverse Hosting Committee has already been set up to work with PITA and partners in their efforts to make this PITA 27, a very memorable event for all PITA members and friends.

Meanwhile Prime Minister James Marape, who was invited to be the Guest Speaker will not be able to attend, as he will be travelling to  South Korea  with other pacific island leaders for a meeting with the South Korean Government.

He says South Korea is one of our biggest trading partners  and it is important for PNG to attend this meeting, therefore he will not be here  but have asked his Deputy ,Mr John Rosso to attend PITA 27, on his behalf.

However, he has assured his government’s full support to Telikom to host this prestigious event.

‘The world today and going forward is ICT based, we cannot be left behind.”

“ICT under rides the platform in which, commerce and economy rides on, health rides on, education rides on our people make connections on so it is very very important for us, we will support Telikom in hosting PITA,” PM Marape said.
