Lorengau is a township located in Manus Province, on Manus Island (also called Admiralty Islands) in Papua New Guinea. Lorengau has a population of about 6000 people. It is the major town on Manus Island.
The township is situated on the edge of Seeadler harbour. The port of Longreau is one of two ports on the island the other being Lombrum which is a major strategic naval base for the US, Australian and PNG defence forces. The Naval base also handles commercial container vessel from Australia.
The island is has a regular domestic air service . Some of the tourist activities include scuba diving, snorkeling, and attending traditional dance performances; there are also World War II relics on the island as well as shipwrecks in the surrounding waters. In the early 21st century Manus was the site of one of Australia’s controversial Pacific Island detention centers for the offshore processing of Australia-bound asylum seekers.
AUSTRALIAN IMMIGRATION DETENTION CENTER
In early 2017 Manus Regional Processing Centre was decommissioned and hundreds of refugees and asylum seekers were transferred, many by force, to three new centers in/near Lorengau. The new centers were West Lorengau Haus, Hillside Haus and East Lorengau Refugee Transit Centre. At the time, the new centers were not completed and 60 men were left without a place to stay. Those detained at the new centers were allowed to leave the centers during the day (with restrictions), but could not leave Manus Island.

Bringing Motor Vehicles Into PAPUA NEW GUINEA:
There is an increasing number of people purchasing cars online from overseas and importing them in Papua New Guinea. Although the purchase price of these vehicles may seem cheaper than what you can purchase here in Papua New Guinea there are significant costs associated with importing and getting these vehicles on the road. In addition to freight and insurance costs, there is also import duties which can, depending on the size of the motor, range from 40%-110% of the vehicles import value. On top of this Import GST of 10% is also collected at the time of import. Add to this broker fees, Quarantine clearance fees, port handling fees, car safety inspection fees and registration fees and this can often double the original purchase price of the vehicle.
Please be aware of all the costs associated with purchasing and importing a vehicle from overseas before you make you purchase. If your vehicle is imported and left at a Customs wharf for over 30 days it is forfeited to the Sate of Papua New Guinea and can be sold or auctioned to recover the duty, GST, and other handling and storage fees owing.
Documentation will be evidence will need to be produced to support your claim. These documents may include:
- receipts showing purchase and delivery dates
- registration and insurance papers
- evidence when the vehicle, boat or plane was surrendered for shipping .
