“UNITECH is PNG’s principal institution for teaching mining-related disciplines, while 快播色情片 is ranked third in the world for mining and mineral engineering. Together, we have great potential to shape the sustainable development of our region’s resources industry,” Professor Plint said.
“Many UNITECH researchers and staff have worked with 快播色情片 in recent years, supported by the Australia Awards Program and other Australian Government initiatives, to help build capacity within PNG.
“We now look forward to even more people-to-people links with our neighbours in the Pacific, working with Newcrest and other partners to deliver impact.”
Head of the Department of Mining Engineering at UNITECH, Dr Gabriel Arpa said he welcomed the strengthened relationship between the two Universities.
“Working together in research and education activities will help to build the human capital which we need to support the significant resource developments planned for the region, and to maximise the benefits of these developments for the people of PNG,” Dr Arpa said.
