AI To Take Centre Stage in PNG Policing?
The government of Papua New Guinea is prioritising police reform in discussions around the 2025 national budget, according to Post Courier. Leaders are grappling with outdated equipment and staff shortages, which drive the need for stronger security measures. The PNG Minister for Police also revealed discussions with the Communications Ministry regarding the use of AI in policing efforts. More specifically, the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary (RPNGC, PNG’s Police force) is now identifying use-cases for AI and Machine Learning in arresting, profiling and prosecuting criminals. This focus on police resources could mark a significant shift in PNG’s budget allocations.
Budget Allocations Reflect Growing Security Demands
The potential reallocation of funds toward police reform underscores the importance of public safety. Leaders hope that enhanced resources will strengthen policing and rebuild public trust, which is especially crucial in the current security climate.
Editor’s Comment: Let’s hope these budget talks mean real change! Security is a massive issue, and if leaders put their money where their mouth is, we might just see PNG’s police force emerge stronger. Fingers crossed, right?
