The man being touted by the opposition as the next leader of Papua New Guinea says the first thing his administration would do is put more focus on law and order. The governor of East Sepik, Allan Bird, is being put forward as the opposition's candidate for prime minister with a vote on a motion of no confidence likely in the last week of May. Mr Bird is realistic about his chances, but he told RNZ Pacific's Don Wiseman what he aspires to do.
