HUGE WIN for Customary Landowners! East New Britain, PNG

WGPNG 🇵🇬🏝️WGPNG 🇵🇬🏝️



✅ The National Court has CANCELLED a massive SABL (Special Agriculture & Business Lease) over 68,000 hectares of customary land in Pomio!


📜 The lease was issued in 2008 without proper landowner consent and failed to meet legal requirements. Now, the court says: “Give the land back to the people!”


🌴 The land will now revert to its customary owners, thanks to a court order by Justice Susan Purdon-Sully and the tireless fight by landowners & legal warriors 💪🏾


👥 Groups like Tavolo Community Conservation Association (TCCA) stood strong to protect the land from illegal logging & misuse 🌿


⚖️ The ruling exposes massive abuse in SABLs and sets a powerful legal precedent: customary land is not for sale!


🛑 12,500+ SABLs are still in question across PNG — the fight is not over.


📣 SHARE if you support land rights & accountability!
