The National Institute of Standards and Industrial Technology (NISIT) Management and Staff would like to extend our congratulations to the Nation and wish all Papua New Guineans a Happy 49th Independence Day.

Show your patriotism by saluting and flying the flag up high. May God continue to bless our country and us, the people.

                                               

"My people of Papua New Guinea, the day we have looked forward for so long – our Independence Day – has arrived. Today the 16th of September 1975 – the day of Independence for Papua New Guinea. We have talked about this day, we have planned it, worked for it and look forward to it. Today our young nation takes possession of the prize which marks our people’s determination and hard work.”

Grand Chief Sir Micheal Thomas Somare (Father of the nation)
