Papua New Guinea Proposes New Head of State
Update: 2025-12-03
Description
Papua New Guineas Constitutional and Law Reform Commission suggests replacing King Charles as the countrys head of state to address neo-colonialism claims and empower local leadership against corruption. The report, The Road Map for Papua New Guinea from two thousand fifty and Beyond, argues for a local head of state to intervene in political impasses and corrupt practices. However, an editorial in The National disagrees, valuing the Kings neutral position as a unifying force. If implemented, this change would follow the path of other Commonwealth nations like Barbados, which became a republic in two thousand twenty-one.
