ROYAL PNG CONSTABULARY LEGACY
on Tuesday, 21 May 2013
"The Royal PNG Constabulary has commended the family of the Late Constable Joseph Tangeria for his services to RPNG Constabulary.
The late Constable Tangeria from Tari in Hela province died during active duty on March 1st 1990.
His family was presented with a medal by the Governor General Sir Michael Ogio.
The gathering was organised by the Royal PNG Constabulary Legacy. It was well – attended by members, policemen and women otherwise known as Legatees including Members of the Diplomatic Co, among others.
Former Police Commissioner and Ombudsman Ila Geno reflected on the work of Royal PNG Constabulary in the past and present. With special emphasis to honour those who have died in line of duty.
One such legatee was late Constable Tangeria. His family who were present there received a medal from the Queen’s representative to honour his commitment to the disciplined force. They also returned the last uniform he wore before his passing.
Governor General Sir Michael Ogio commended all policemen and women for their services despite adverse criticisms. He was also impressed with the Board of Royal PNG Constabulary Legacy for a healthy balance sheet.
Sir Michael encouraged other officers to join the Police Legacy as it provides networking and educational opportunities for Members."
