Western Highlands Province Governor, Wai Rapa has brought light at the end of the tunnel for the neglected people of Nebilyer Valley in the Tambul–Nebilyer District through education.
Once known across Western Highlands Province as a battlefield for almost four generations, Nebilyer Valley is now writing a new story. Today, the sound of conflict is being replaced by the sound of learning.

A new Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) college is rising here, bringing skills, knowledge, and new opportunities for the people. More than just education, it is building peace, respect, spin-off benefits, and hope for the future.
Nebilyer Valley is no longer known for fighting, but for shaping the next generation through skills and unity.
“Nebilyer Valley is an untouched area where no government services have been seen or felt. This is a very important education institution built to shape the future of our youths in the province and the country,” said Nebilyer Council President Brus Young.
He said that not only the TVET college, but other important services were also delivered within a three-year timeframe, including two electrification projects and three road construction projects.
Governor Rapa said that, with the highest number of primary and secondary schools in the province, the five additional TVET colleges-added to the already established 10-would provide space for school dropouts and give them a fair opportunity in life.
“Education is the key to a better community, whereas tribal conflicts bring destruction and chaos to the communities of Nebilyer Valley,” he said.
Governor Rapa urged the people to take ownership of government services and welcome more in order to see development and change.
