Mr. Peter White MBE, MCS Appointed as Non-Executive Director (Fundraising)

On 25th July 2016 our President, Ambassador Grahame Ainui OL, MBE, OStJ, QPM, and board were pleased to appoint to the position of Non-Executive Director (Fundraising), Mr Peter White MBE, MCS.

By accepting this appointment Peter brings to Legacy a wealth of experience in this position having served until recently as both Director and Secretary to RPNGC Police Legacy, during which time he was instrumental in the success of our fund raising activities. His passion for the RPNGC and Police Legacy, founded during his service as a Chief Inspector in the Constabulary from 1988-1992, is well known by most. During his early service he was recognised with the award by the PNG Government of the Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) and in only 2014 he was awarded both the Meritorious Community Service Medal and the Queens Golden Jubilee Medal for his service to Police Legacy in PNG.

Peter has also had a distinguished career in the Australian Government having served as both a Commissioned officer in the Australian Federal Police as well as in a number of senior executive roles within various Australian Government departments

We were also fortunate in having Peter further raise the profile of our organisation by representing RPNGC Police Legacy at the recent meeting of Police Legacies which was held in Canberra on the weekend of 6-7 August 2016, and which was opened by the Commissioner of the Australian Federal Police, Andrew Colvin OAM, APM.

Peter will be the MC at our upcoming Vice Regal Gala event to be held at the Crowne Plaza, Port Moresby on 20th August 2016.
