Landlords Mr Gerard and Mrs Nicole Habitein, of Gernic Investments, were thanked for giving Air Niugini the opportunity to do business.
Mrs Habitein said Gernic Investments was proud to do business with Air Niugini, to the people of Bougainville.
“Private, public partnership has to be the way forward, to be a better developed town in Buka,”

Autonomous Bougainville Government’s Deputy Speaker, Francesca Semoso, thanked Mrs Garo for her work in Bougainville.
She challenged the people to respect facilities as part of new developments in Bougainville.
“It’s not easy for a woman to actually seek help from the top management and ask them for her to make a difference in her post, and to improve the image of Air Niugini in a place that she is serving.”
The new modern building’s location is now convenient for customers.
It has a larger office space, which makes it more conducive for staff and customers.
