Tensions Rise Over LNG Deals
Taiwan has announced it will close its office in Papua New Guinea and halt spot-market LNG purchases, per SCMP.
The move follows China's renewed interest in buying more PNG gas, as Taiwan scales back its energy ties with the Pacific nation, reports Asia Nikkei.
UNICEF called for continued investment in Papua New Guinea’s children as El Niño deepens hardship, per UNICEF.
Meanwhile, officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs began withdrawing staff from their PNG office, notes Taipei Times.
