No worries, have just emailed him, will PM you when he replies (assuming it's good internet coverage lol, although he did say before he left that there is internet, but it's dialup speed!)]]> Tue, 01 Mar 2011 10:32:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38203&PID=1276943&title=png-travel-info-vaccinations#1276943 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38203&PID=1276791&title=png-travel-info-vaccinations#1276791 Author: tictacjunkie

Yay, yes please. We'd like to know was it difficult sorting the work visa, & did it take long? How's the cell ph / internet coverage (obviously it'll vary location wise though), what vaccinations did he have, & what antimalarial is he using? Thank you, that'd be a huge help, DH will be working there for around 6 weeks & it's been quite hard to find work info rather than tourist stuff. ]]> Mon, 28 Feb 2011 22:20:25 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38203&PID=1276791&title=png-travel-info-vaccinations#1276791 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38203&PID=1276641&title=png-travel-info-vaccinations#1276641 Author: rachelsea

check out safe travel - they have up-to-date health and safety advisories. Plus, as it's run by the government you can register to say when you're going to be where so if things turn to custard the embassy knows to come looking for you (theoretically!).

I don't know about phone networks, etc, but check out Lonely Planet's thorn tree forum, if you can't find the answer on there already, you can just ask - they're pretty friendly ]]> Mon, 28 Feb 2011 18:49:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38203&PID=1276613&title=png-travel-info-vaccinations#1276613 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38203&PID=1276516&title=png-travel-info-vaccinations#1276516 Author: tictacjunkie

Hi, another obscure question from me- DH is being sent to Papua New Guinea shortly for work & his work is the "couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery" type sometimes. Anyone been there recently? He's going to Lihir Island group via Port Moresby. He's got a list of vaccinations etc. We're struggling to find info on ph networks (if any) internet coverage etc. What anti-malarials are best these days? Any info appreciated, thanks, =)]]> Mon, 28 Feb 2011 17:16:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38203&PID=1276516&title=png-travel-info-vaccinations#1276516
