  Zaphaniah Lao – Sacrifice and SME Transformation 20th May,2026 Success is not built overnight. It is built through sacrifice, discipline, humility, and years of perseverance. The story of my younger brother, Zaphaniah Lao, is one that reflects the reality of many young Papua New Guineans today — educated, ambitious, but born into difficult circumstances with limited resources. Zaphaniah is the third child in our family. We were raised by parents with strong ethics, strong values, and a deep belief in hard work, despite coming from a poor background. We did not have wealth, luxury, or connections. What we had was character, resilience, and the determination to rise above our circumstances. As the eldest brother, I carried the responsibility of helping my younger siblings through school. I paid school fees, supported them where I could, and constantly encouraged them to pursue education because I believed it was the foundation for a better future. In 2020, Zaphaniah graduated from ...

Enga Region MSME Policy 2026–2035: Empowering Our People, Building Our Future. Foreword Dear People of Enga , Our province is rich in land, culture, resilient communities, and untapped potential. From the high valleys of Kandep to the mineral-rich areas of Porgera, from the bustling hub of Wabag to the fertile lands of Wapenamanda and beyond, our greatest resource is *you* — our people. Too many of our youth return from school to limited opportunities, and too many families rely solely on subsistence farming in a changing climate. This Enga Region MSME Policy is not just a government document. It is a commitment to every mother selling garden produce at the market, every young person with a dream to start a business, every farmer wanting to earn more from their sweat, and every entrepreneur ready to innovate. It aligns with Papua New Guinea’s national SME Policy and Master Plan while tailoring strategies to Enga’s unique strengths: world-class agriculture potential, mining linkages, c...
