Papua New Guinea's 2026 budget faces backlash for overestimating revenue and failing to improve public services despite promises.
Papua New Guinea’s 2026 budget of K$30.9 billion faces criticism from East Sepik Governor Allan Bird, who says it overestimates revenue, overspends, and fails to improve public services despite claims of prioritizing infrastructure and jobs.
Analysts view the plan as politically driven, focused on short-term visibility over long-term reforms, with concerns over recurring revenue shortfalls and off-budget spending undermining accountability.
Citizens remain skeptical, questioning why record spending hasn’t delivered better healthcare, education, or security.
