“As the trustee shareholder for landowner interest across mining, petroleum and energy projects, MRDC is pleased to support the PNG Chamber of Resources and Energy (PNG Core) through this worthy initiative,” he said.
“Landowners are critical to the development and sustainability of resource projects, and PNG Resources Week provides the perfect opportunity for landowners to engage, share experiences, and collaborate in areas of mutual interest, to ensure maximum benefits are realised.

“Canconex 2023 was a resounding success, and largely due to the support by MRDC in not only being the principal sponsor, but also facilitating for the attendance for landowner representatives from across communities for which in which it is trustee for,” Smare said.
“PNG Core looks forward to welcoming MRDC, landowners, landowner companies, government policy makers, business houses, and project developers at PNG Resources Week.”
