Papua New Guinea's Police Minister Bryan Kramer says significant reforms are underway within the constabulary, including efforts to weed out poor administration and corruption within the heirarchy in Port Moresby; the agency that oversees the Bougainville Peace Agreement has changed its name in the wake of last year's overwhelming referendum result; the Pacific Pharmacists Association say there are not enough Pasifika pharmacists in New Zealand to meet the needs and demands of the community; the Norfolk Island administrator is stressing the island will not run out of food as it struggles with shipping issues; the practice of traditional tattooing is seen by many in the Pacific as the sole domain of men - but that's not the case everywhere.
