I have evaluated more that 100 sites on Papua New Guinea (PNG) and found 
that many of these sites misrepresent the local content or have 
misleading information about the country. These sites are created by 
people who have less information about the country. Many of the sites 
have information that are unreliable and out of date. Many texts and 
graphics are totally misleading the users. 

The purpose of this meeting is to point out to webmasters that 
information regarding or about a country and its unique culture has to 
be well evaluated before they appear on the web. It is aimed at 
researchers, webmasters, academics and librarians who are interested in 
this part of the world and the sites which have information about PNG. 

Many issues regarding the Internet in PNG can be discussed after the 
display and presentation and many contacts can be made here.
