9-mile Background
Nambawan Super purchased large parcels of land at 9-mile in 1990. These lands are described as P2156, P2157, P2158 and P2159, also called “Bush Wara”, in the Bomana Valley at 9 mile Port Moresby.
Securing these titles has been a challenging process where Nambawan Super encountered a series of bureaucratic difficulties.
The Fund’s intention for the site remains consistent with those from 1990 which is to build new, master-planned suburbs, with affordable housing for the growing Port Moresby population and in particular for the Fund’s members.
