As we all know, it has been over a week since power, water and other essential services that you enjoyed in the last four years have been cut off. Unfortunately, these will not be restored. The Australians, ABF and BRS are all gone and will not come back to talk to you about your a situation. Your current situation here is of great concern to ICSA and the PNG government. We would like to urge you to listen carefully to this message. 3. You cannot continue to remain here in this condition. It is very bad for your health and well-being if you continue to refuse to move to your new accommodation where there is food, water, electricity and other services. For Refugees All these services are available at East Lorengau Transit Centre and the Camp 300. Security is available at both locations to ensure your safety is guaranteed. There will also be regular police presence. All necessary services such as food, water, electricity, washing machines, and medical services are available at your new accommodation. Refugees at ELRTC and Camp 300 will be given 2 weekly food packs and are able to cook their own meals. For non-refugees your accommodation is at the Hillside Haus where you will be given 3 meals a day. You will also have a comfortable airconditioned room which you will share with one other person. All services are provided to make you comfortable there. 6. PNGICSA, The Police and the PNGDF are here to assist you relocate to your new accommodation as soon as possible and also to ensure that your security is guaranteed there. You are given 2 days to move. Buses are available to facilitate your relocation today. 7. The Conn Officer of the Naval Base has already declared RPC as a restricted area and the PNGDF military police are now patrolling the base, Anyone found moving around outside of this fenced area may be arrested and locked up for being unlawfully on PNGDF Property. This also applies to all other persons apart from PNGDF ence duty, Police and ICSA officers, a . You have reported thatthe RPC is nae ae re on Monday. He has in avery unhygienic state and is a healthhazard. You may become very sick under these conditions of ‘overflowing sewerage, heaps of rubbish, no clean running water, no electricity and no food. He has instructed that this place be vacated immediately. You are therefore instructed to vacate this compound immediately and relocate to your new accommodation 9. If necessary, force may be used to relocate those who refuse to move voluntarily for your own sake 10, The Supreme Court of PNG has made a decision on an application by refugee Berouz Boochani seeking an interim injunction to stop ICSA relocating him to new accommodation. This application has been refused. You have no legal basis to remain in this compound. The Government of PNG will soon revoke the Gazettal of the RPC as a relocation centre. This land will revert to PNGDF and if you still remain here after demolition of the fences, you will be deemed to be unlawfully on a military base and will face eviction or arrest and prosecution. When this occurs, ICSA officers will not be here to assist you. 12. Demolition of fences will commence today and your security and ‘safety here is not guaranteed. It is important that you are all relocated before demolition of the fencing starts. 13. Under these unfortunate circumstances, It is NOT our desire to ‘see anyone of you get evicted by force and we sincerely ask you to co- operate with us and move to your new accommodation TODAY before demolition. 14 For refugees, the relocation to the new accommodation will not affect your application to settle in the United States of America. The Department of Home land Security will continue to assess your applications and settle those who meet their requirements 11 Authorised by: Esther Gaegaming, DCMO/RPC Administrator Refugee Division PNGICSA Date message delivere Time: \|. 2Oa~4 Truuchey, sf frovr Wamieased mteGrey & Pde lcs Voces Pr Relice Qeveu— PNGresh Elaveule — QNatecA
