About

Welcome to my law blog! 

My name is Immangel Nawa. I am a lawyer by profession. 

This is a platform where I share my insights and knowledge about various legal topics that are relevant to our daily lives. 

As a lawyer and blogger, I am dedicated to sharing my legal knowledge and insights with my readers. Through this blog, I aim to provide helpful information and resources to people in Papua New Guinea (PNG) who may have limited access to legal education and resources. 

My inspiration to start this blog came from a desire to make a positive impact on the legal profession in PNG and to empower individuals to understand their rights and make informed decisions about legal matters. 

My blog covers a range of legal topics, including important issues in PNG such as land ownership, human rights, and access to justice. I strive to provide accurate and reliable information, and I encourage readers to engage in discussion and ask questions in the comments section. My blog serves as a valuable resource for those seeking legal information and as a platform for promoting legal education and awareness in PNG.

Whether you are a law student, legal professional, or simply someone who wants to stay informed about the latest legal developments, I hope my blog is a great resource for you.
