Parnell Assurance PNG presented a Suzuki Jimny vehicle to the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary (RPNGC) at the National Police Headquarters in Konedobu, NCD on Friday April 17th.
The vehicle will support the Insurance Section of the Human Resource Management Directorate, enabling the team to deliver insurance services more effectively to Constabulary members.
Parnell Assurance PNG has served as the Constabulary’s health insurer for the past three years, covering 80 percent of medical costs while members contribute the remaining 20 percent.
During the handover, Parnell Assurance Executive Officer Johnson Rajan said the donation was intended to ease logistical challenges faced by the Insurance Team.
Acting Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) for Human Resource, Gaiwary Tinga, expressed gratitude for the support, noting that the vehicle will be vital in assisting members who travel from outside centres for medical care.
“There are times when our members arrive at odd hours and need transport between the airport, hospital, or accommodation,” ACP Tinga said.
“Having a dedicated vehicle will greatly improve our ability to provide timely assistance.”
He added that mobility is essential for efficient service delivery, especially given Papua New Guinea’s weather, road conditions, and law and order challenges.
“Parnell Assurance has been a strong partner over the past three years, and we thank them for understanding our needs and continuing to support the Constabulary,” ACP Tinga said.
