Abstract
Papua New Guinea (PNG) (fig. 1) came to political independence in September 1975. In the following year there was an explosion of political rhetoric concerning the need for adequate national and regional level planning. This paper argues that, beneath the rhetoric, the present political process militates against effective national planning and even against effective regional planning. The most that can be expected, given the present pattern of interests, is a movement toward more effective project planning. Thus, the technical problems of planning are to be seen as secondary to the political processes.
