This 2013 Article IV Consultation highlights that Papua New Guinea has achieved strong economic growth over the past decade, benefiting from high commodity prices, mineral investment inflows, sound macroeconomic policies, and financial sector stability. The current account deficit is expected to narrow sharply in 2013 as imports and income outflows decline with the winding down of liquefied natural gas project construction. The Bank of Papua New Guinea has kept the policy interest rate unchanged since early 2013 given weakening nonmineral sector demand, but has issued central bank bills and raised cash reserve requirements to absorb excess liquidity in the banking system.

Papua New Guinea (PNG) has an estimated population of 7 million people, which accounts for well over half of the 10 million total persons living in the 22 Pacific Island states. PNG is a diverse country with 85% living in rural areas, and more than 700 languages (NSO, 2011 and World Bank, 2012). While PNG has enjoyed recent economic progress and has bright prospects for future revenue growth, growth has not been inclusive or broad based. The country still ranks a very low 153 out of 187 on the Human Development Index. According to the World Health Organization, PNG has the lowest health status in the Pacific region. Among the leading causes of mortality are HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis (TB), pneumonia, and malaria. TB and pneumonia have high prevalence rates and are often associated with HIV infection. National TB/HIV co-infection rates are very high at 9%, and TB/HIV co-infection even higher in Port Moresby at 23%. PNG has the highest prevalence of HIV/AIDS among the Pacific Island Nations (UNAIDS, 2011). Ninety-five percent of HIV cases reported in the Pacific between 1987 and 2008 were Papua New Guineans (Coghlan et al, 2011). The Government of PNG (GoPNG) estimates that there are 34,000 people living with HIV in the country (31,000 adults and 3,100 children) (NACS/NDOH/UNAIDS, 2011). The first HIV case was reported in 1987 and reported cases have increased steadily since that time. HIV transmission is primarily heterosexual; important contextual factors include high rates of sexually transmitted infections (STI) with limited availability of effective treatment, early sexual debut, multiple and concurrent sexual partners including polygamy, sexual violence and rape, transactional sex, low and inconsistent condom use, increased mobility especially of men for work, and use of marijuana and alcohol. Illicit drug injection has been documented but is still thought to be very rare in PNG (NRI, 2010). While much is still unknown about the current and future status of the HIV epidemic in PNG, there is sufficient data to conclude that the epidemic has extended beyond urban and peri-urban areas to rural areas. Though HIV has been reported in all 22 provinces, the epidemic appears to show a geographical focus in the five Highlands provinces, home to 40% of nation's population but reporting 60% of the total number of HIV cases in 2010 (NDOH, 2011). Further, it is believed that the epidemic is concentrated in locations with a convergence of risk behaviors such as urban centers, along key transport routes (e.g. Highlands Highway), mining areas such as Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) sites, and other rural economic enclaves (IRG, 2011). While national HIV prevalence for adults is estimated at nearly one percent, HIV infection rates are much higher among most-at-risk populations (MARPs) compared to the general population. A 2010 integrated bio-behavioral survey conducted in the capital city of Port Moresby showed that female sex workers (FSWs) had a prevalence of 19%. For males who have sex with males (MSM) HIV prevalence was 14.1% and for transgender women HIV prevalence was 23.7% (IMR, 2010).

Papua New Guinea's economic growth has outpaced the majority of economies in Southeast Asia and the Pacific since 2007. Its development challenges, however, remain daunting, and it lags behind other countries in the region in terms of per capita income and achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. This raises the question of how the country can make its economic growth high, sustained, inclusive, and broad-based to more effectively improve its population's welfare. This report identifies the critical constraints to these objectives and discusses policy options to help overcome such constraints.

Papua New Guinea is poised for change, as the country’s mineral riches are providing a major opportunity for economic development through the exploitation of natural resources. The government’s five-year strategic plan focuses on key development enablers such as free education, improvements to health services, the strengthening of law and order, rural development projects and infrastructure construction. Inward investment has increasingly been driven by the extractive sector, including oil and gas, whose share of the country’s total investment stock rose from 71% to 87% between 2004 and 2012. Statistics from the Investment Promotion Authority reveal that the largest share of new foreign direct investment in 2013, some 24.6%, targeted the construction sector, outpacing that in financial services, manufacturing and mining, which accounted for 19.8%, 18.1% and 10.9%, respectively. While minerals and hydrocarbons dominate exports, around 85% of the country’s population is employed in the agriculture sector. The start of liquefied natural gas exports in 2014 is expected to return the current account to a surplus in 2015, forecast as high as 12.1% of GDP before returning to 9.1% the following year. While the outlook for state revenues remains strong in the medium term, ensuring the sustainability of further spending increases will be key to preserving macroeconomic stability.

In Papua New Guinea hopes are high that real change is on its way; the country’s political, administrative, financial and technical leaders now have to find a way to ensure the most productive distribution and use of financial resources. Many international actors are watching closely to see how this young country negotiates its path. Papua New Guinea became a major exporter of gas in 2014 when the $19bn PNG liquefied natural gas (LNG) project was completed ahead of schedule and within budget, significantly increasing the size and strength of the economy. The year ahead is likely to see PNG benefit from the further development of its hydrocarbons sector, fuelling the growth of its economy as a whole. The LNG influx also poses challenges, however, in terms of ensuring inclusive growth and productive use of the new revenues. PNG takes pride in being a final frontier of natural and cultural development, but the task ahead is to protect the country’s heritage while becoming part of the global economy.
