Is the Panguna likely to be reopened? Do the people want that or is there a plan for eco-tourism etc.?

I don't know for sure if Panguna is likely to be reopened (I'm afraid I cannot say much on this) however, there have been plans for eco-tourism on island. Last year UNDP as part of its committment towards Bougainville met and discussed with members of PNGTI (PNG Tourism Industry) and development of eco-tourism on Bougainville was one area that was stressed during the meeting.
They plan to work together with Bougainville leaders in identifying potential tourist spots on the island before working on achieving plans form eco-tourism.

Does Francis Ona have any backing?
What do you personally think about it?

I'm afraid I cannot offer my personal opinion here because this is quiet a sensitive issue.
