I visited Goroka in 2008 annd met one of my old students. In 2008 she was a senior nurse in Goroka Base hospital and in fact was the president of the Nurses Association. She and some of her senior nurses were suspended by the board of management of the hospital because they were complaining about the corruption that was occurring in the hospital. Apparently some members of the board were taking medicines from the hospital and selling them to local GP.s The nurses association was fighting back. Unfortunately I don't know the results of their action.
