Kokopo's building boom

 Kokopo, East New Britain province, is experiencing a massive building boom.

New houses are spouting up everywhere in the East New Britain capital.

Tolai businessman Eremas Wartoto is one person who is cashing in on the current building boom in Kokopo.

He has brought in a pre-fabricated house from China (pictured), at a cost of K300, 000, and already, people are willing to pay up to K700, 000 for it.

Mr Wartoto will be bringing in 15 more of the pre-fabricated houses from Kokopo and offering them for sale in Kokopo.
