NDB, SDDA tie up to lend to local women entrepreneurs

Papua New Guinea’s National Development Bank (NDB) and the District Development Authority (SDDA) of Sohe District in the Northern Province signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) relating to the Sohe District Women in Business Credit Scheme (SDWIBCS). The credit scheme will allow women folks in the district particularly those in the rural areas to participate in small scale commercial and agricultural activities whilst at the same time enable them to play a more active role in the economic development of the district. The MOA was signed recently at the NDB Head Office in Waigani by the Chairlady of SDWIBCS and Member for Sohe Open Electorate, Hon. Delilah Gore and NDB’s Managing Director, Moses Liu.
