Papua new guinea & Port Moresby expat survival guide



Its not for nothing that Papua New Guinea (PNG) is known as the 'Land
of the Unexpected;' so its quite likely your perceptions of the country
may be wrong. Most people only know Papua New Guinea from what theyve
seen on National Geographic - usually a program about painted tribesmen
living in a remote and unexplored topical jungle. But for expats
working in Papua New Guinea things are a little different, and in
regard to expat jobs, things are changing in PNG - fast! For one thing,
PNG is no longer a poor backwater for expat jobs; its now a thriving
location with many high paying posts for expats.

International Jobs for Expats in PNG

What's made working in Papua New Guinea so popular with expats is the
high number of well paying jobs now available. This is mainly due to
Papua New Guinea having an $18+ billion LNG project underway, and the
expat job opportunities provided by this huge project are making the
country a Mecca for people of all nationalities seeking expat jobs. The
huge investment on the project means that working in Papua New Guinea
now provides many with well paid expat job opportunities in the
thriving oil, gas, construction and support industry sectors of PNG.

Working In Papua New Guinea

When you are looking at international jobs, deciding to take an expat
job in PNG can be difficult because its hard to get factual information
about working in Papua New Guinea - and of course living in Papua New
Guinea where life as an expat is very different from other countries.
This is why you need the Papua New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival
Guide.

Life as an expat in Papua New Guinea

Like any country that has large numbers of its workforce drawn from
overseas, Papua New Guinea has many positive and negative aspects for
life as an expat. A major concern for many expats is the country's
security problems, and of course the perception many have that the
country is very poor with few job opportunities with a high expat
salary. Although there are security concerns, happily, lucrative job
opportunities for expats abound.

expat Jobs in PNG

After many years of little growth, the long awaited multi-billion LNG
project has transformed PNG into a land full of positive job
opportunities for expat jobs. Whats more, as few know about the job
opportunities in this fascinating country, most expat jobs come with a
lucrative expat salary. In fact, companies involved with the
development of new infrastructure for the many ongoing project
spin-offs are finding it difficult to find enough expats to fill open
job positions, which provides huge - and very lucrative - job
opportunities for expats of all nationalities wanting expat jobs in
PNG.

Job opportunities for expat jobs in PNG now abound

There is of course a slight catch. You see, if you want to cash in on
the new expat job opportunities in PNG, or you have dreams or plans to
move overseas to live and work in what many feel is an unexplored
tropical paradise, you need to know the facts of life as an expat
working in Papua New Guinea. This means learning something about the
country itself, the local customs, the people, jobs in PNG, the local
work environment, expat work contracts, employment opportunities, and
of course the many pitfalls to be wary of and learn how to avoid.
Unfortunately, its not so easy getting all of this information -
because to be an expat in PNG you need much more than just the pretty
tourist details, you need the down-to-earth nitty-gritty truth about
life as an expat working in Papua New Guinea.

Where to find relevant information on the lifestyle and expat jobs in
PNG

If you are looking for job opportunities in PNG and perform a web
search, youll find websites galore and a number of excellent books
available on Papua New Guinea. The problem is that all these will tell
you about are the tourist wonders of Papua New Guinea, or the countrys
ecology, wildlife and tribal culture. Youll find information abounds on
the best dive spots, locations and facilities of exotic island resorts,
hiking the Kokoda trail or attending one of PNGs famous cultural
extravaganzas. Unfortunately, outside of this tourist hype and academic
research there is little information of any relevance or real use to
you if youre looking for expat jobs in PNG or thinking of living and
working in Papua New Guinea. It is to fill this information void that
the Papua New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide was developed.

Why you need a PNG Expat Guide

The simple truth is you may have a very hard time finding
information of direct relevance to you, your work and to local life as
an expat. The Papua New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide
provides the information you need - along with a host of helpful tips
from in-country PNG expats. They pass on their mistakes so you can
avoid learning lessons the hard way. Whether you want to be a working
expat grabbing a high expat salary, or just want to spend some time in
Papua New Guinea, you can now get all the relevant, up-to-date,
information you need.

Relevant up-to-date information for life as an expat working in Papua
New Guinea

Its sad, but many expats arrive in Papua New Guinea after accepting an
expat work contract that does not actually provide what they expected -
either in real financial benefits or in regard to the housing and expat
lifestyle they expected to enjoy. Other expats arrive unaware of many
facts and details that could make their transition to life as an expat
in PNG easier, less costly - and much less frustrating. Luckily,
because of the Papua New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide,
you do not have to be one of these people.

Everything you need for a life as an expat in PNG

If you are a traveling expat, the guide covers everything you need from
tips on local health, local security, traveling around the country -
even the best places to eat, drink, and have fun in Port Moresby (POM).
If you are (or want to be) a working expat, enjoying a high expat
salary from PNGs job opportunities, the guide's comprehensive coverage
is ideal for you. The guide covers all of the topics, advice and
information you need to know; everything from the different expat
contract types, to tips on what to check on expat work contracts to get
the right contract for your needs, up to date information on the true
cost of living in PNG, and the different lifestyles available depending
on your contract type and the drawbacks that some contract wording can
have on the true expat lifestyle you can enjoy as a working expat in
Papua New Guinea.

Practical, experience-based advice

Professionally written by an expat with years of specific experience in
developing and performing expat country orientations, teaching
newcomers to PNG what they need to know, the expat guide not only
covers the basic facts and information expats (and most expat employers
and multi-national companies) need, it also answers the questions so
many new expats have but often don't ask or cant find the answers to
until its too late!

Guide Coverage

Thoughtfully laid out to best present topics, the Papua New
Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide is a must read if you plan
on working in Papua New Guinea. Whether youre looking for expat jobs in
PNG, considering taking up an expat job, visiting and plan to tour the
country, or even just plan on spending some time in Port Moresby, the
guide ensure that you have all the information, tips and advice you
need.

Part 1: The Papua New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide starts
out by covering the information you need on PNG itself; the people,
food, history and culture - all important knowledge for those visiting
or working in Papua New Guinea. Knowing these facts about this
fascinating country will help you to understand how the country runs --
and help you to avoid some common expat blunders and help you to fit
into the life here a little easier. Think of part 1 as a quick PNG
Culture 101 lesson forming the first part of your PNG Expat Survival
course.

Avoid the common blunders made by most new expats in PNG

Part 2: For those in expat jobs, moving to another country often
involves having to check through reams of bureaucratic legalese -
written in such a way that it is often only understandable to those
with a law degree. So, in Part 2 the guide cuts through the reams of
official government and company legalese. It starts by explaining in
plan English what different types of expat work contracts are common
for the expat jobs in PNG, and what these contracts involve. Too many
expatriates come to Papua New Guinea not understanding that the work
contract they accept sets the parameters of the lifestyle they can
realistically have both in PNG and from the money they send back to
their home countries. The guide gives you what may be eye-opening
insights into what is realistically available for expatriates, both
those who are working in Papua New Guinea full-time on resident
contracts, and for those who only spend part of their time in country,
working rotational shift contracts.

For jobs in PNG, know what contract details to check

The guide then goes on to explain, (in English understandable
even to us mortals without law degrees), the different types of visas
and documentation you need for entering and working in Papua New
Guinea, both for the various expat jobs, and for non-working spouses
and children. It then goes on to explain what you should bring, (and
why you should bring it), and what you shouldnt bring (and why you
shouldnt bring it).

Make sure you get the right visa for working in Papua New Guinea

Part 3: When you become an expatriate anywhere, there are many facts
and snippets of local knowledge that are useful, often even essential
to know no matter - whatever expat jobs you perform. And working in
Papua New Guinea is no different.

Part 3 of the Papua New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide
covers what you, as an expat really need to know and understand both
before and immediately after arrival. Whatever your expat job, this
includes what you need to know and check before signing a work contract
what you need to do and considered prior to arriving in PNG when
moving you family or belongings to and from PNG and what you need to
understand during your settling in period. By learning these topics -
and taking note of the tips learned from other expats hard experience,
you will save yourself many unpleasant surprises, suffer less
frustration, and avoid many of the mistakes and problems common to
those who chose life as an expat in PNG.

What you need before and on arrival for life as an expat working in
Papua New Guinea

You will also learn the truth about available expat housing and the
general housing packages available for the different types of expat
jobs in PNG -- resident and rotational, as well as what you must check
to avoid the pitfalls - especially before signing your work contract or
bringing your family to live in Papua New Guinea.

Expat jobs in PNG have different benefits and housing, learn whats
available

You will also learn about important local security and personal safety
issues why these are so important when working in Papua New Guinea and
actions to take to reduce the chances of having to be too worried about
your safety. Health and medical information chapters are also in part
3. These forewarn and hopefully forearm you, so you can take the
actions required to prevent any needless mishaps - simply through
heeding some suggestions from other expats experiences. In the hot and
steamy climate, this is all crucial advice in keeping yourself and your
family happy and healthy while youre living and working in Papua New
Guinea.

Know local security and health conditions for living and working in
Papua New Guinea

Everyone has to eat, and knowing what to expect the good, the bad, (and
in PNG, frankly the sometimes downright ugly), may well prevent you
upset and frustration when dinning or shopping while in Port Moresby
and elsewhere in Papua New Guinea. Part 3 ends with some basic but
important business information, including office and shop hours, banks,
using local ATMs and currency exchanges, local mobile phones, the types
of driving licenses available in PNG - and how to obtain them,
traveling around the country, (an important topic itself for many expat
jobs). Knowing this information is essential for your life as an expat
working in Papua New Guinea.

Part 4: This part of the Papua New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival
Guide builds on topics from part 3, delving deeper into life as an
expat working in Papua New Guinea. A host of helpful knowledge and
experience to aid you and your family fit into the local expat
lifestyle without too many bumps in the road.

Learn to fit into the local expat lifestyle without too many bumps in
the road!

Coverage begins by explaining with light humor how you should dress and
treat local people in various social and work situations. This is
followed by some plain talking words of wisdom on matters of the heart,
(or more truthfully, a somewhat smaller organ lower on the body that
has caused problems for so many expats not used to local ways).
Finance, the cost of living in PNG -- and how much you need to budget
for monthly outgoings follows next, along with some practical and
effective ideas on how you can reduce your overall monthly cash needs -
without downgrading your life as an expat. More truths are reveled with
some down-to-earth local knowledge on dealing with PNG domestic staff -
after all, life as an expat wouldnt be the same if domestic help were
not around to make life easier (at least sometimes).

Practical and effective advice and tips for life as an expat working in
Papua New Guinea

All things must come to an end, and part 4 of the Papua New Guinea &
Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide rounds off with pages of pertinent
reminders and a host of extra expat-to-expat tips drawn from many
experienced in-country PNG expats. Follow these tips and you will make
your life as an expat working in Papua New Guinea much easier -- and
certainly reduce the common hassles you face (as well as help you keep
more of your cash in your pocket).

To end the guide, there is an appendix section of Useful Information,
including sections of maps of Port Moresby, and many hard to find local
website links. As an added bonus, details of the popular eating,
drinking and entertainment venues for expats in Port Moresby (or POM as
its known to all locals and in-country PNG expats) have been added.

All in all, no matter what expat jobs you seek to perform, the Papua
New Guinea & Port Moresby Expat Survival Guide ensures that you have
all of the information you need to better enjoy and profit from your
life as an expat living and working in Papua New Guinea.

About the Author

Tom Henry



Having spent 4-years as the HRD Manager for a drilling company in
Papua New Guinea, Brit expat author Tom Henry was well placed for
researching material for this Papua New Guinea Expat Survival Guide as
he trained so many expats for jobs in PNG.

During his years in PNG, Tom developed and performed PNG country
orientation programs for hundreds of expats; conducted a number of
training programs for PNG based HSE, trade and rig based personnel; and
received national and international acclaim for his work.

A professional writer for more than two decades, Tom is also qualified
and accredited at the highest level of PNG Trainer,
(Master/Consultant), and in 2010, Tom's work achieved public
recognition at the highest level when he was awarded a Papua New Guinea
'Outstanding Trainer of the year award.'

As a professional writer, he has ghost written many of publications,
with a large number of books, manuals and guides to his credit .

Now owner of his own small publishing house and editor-in-chief of the
on-line Angeles Xtra expat magazine, Tom began his expat life as a
military advisor in Saudi Arabia, where he quickly learned that expats
must be prepared for anything when Kuwait was invaded just hours after
his arrival, .

Tom's life as an expat and experience in international jobs continued
following his service through Desert Shield and Desert Storm. After a
short trip back to university in the UK, he took a position as a
training coordinator at Jeddah International Airport.

After 3 years and a number of commendations, he was headhunted to be a
Training & Development consultant working on projects for
international oil giant, Saudi Aramco, where he spent almost 8 years
writing publications, manuals and training material.

Married to a Filipina, after leaving Saudi in 2003, Tom lived and
worked full time in the Philippines for the next 4 years. During this
time his bank of expat jobs increased as he was commissioned to travel
all over the archipelago ghost writing country and area guide books for
a major publisher - and also developing his first expat survival guide
for those looking to live or retire in the Philippines.

Still working in expat jobs, in 2007 Tom took what was suppose to be a
4/4 rotational expat post in Papua New Guinea as HRD manager for a
drilling company - where he quickly learned why when taking jobs in PNG
expat contracts have to be studied very carefully.

During his time in PNG, he worked half the time from his office in Port
Moresby (POM) and the other half at field sites around central and the
southern highlands. His work in Papua New Guinea gained him further
acclaim with national awards and International accreditation.

Though a Brit expat, Tom lives in the Philippines with his wife and
their two lovable, but he admits sometimes rather silly bullmastiffs.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.
