Dear Sir Peter,

I am going to make Madang a holiday week-end breaks to unwind and bring all our lures & expertises from Rabaul to see if we can help catch some game marlins on top of what you are catching now....Sucks...I missed out today when the score may be better than 11-10-4 that you caught the other day ~  Michael Chan, Rabaul

Dear Sir Peter:  I would like to acknowledge Joseph at the Dive Ship (Divemaster) as being fantastic in his job.  I had lost confidence in NZ.  He reintroduced my confidence and made me love diving again.  He is superb. - Sherry Penny Jun 2, 2011

I am writing to thank you for all the assistance that you and your team provided to us at our recent Sales and Marketing Conference held at the Madang Resort Hotel. Our staff was very pleased with high standard of accommodation they were given, the excellent food that was served In abundance at the buffets, and the room and table service your cheerful staff provided. In fact on our questionnaire at the conclusion of the conference, everyone has asked that our conference next year be held at your Resort again. The peaceful ambiance of your establishment ensured that everyone was forced, relaxed and receptive to the concepts our conference was promulgating and teaching. I would like to especially that your Reservations Manager Mr Joe Kramer, for his invaluable assistance with all things, ‘IT’ related. He never fail to come to the conference room immediately when asked, and he was always able to fix whatever technical problem we had in the shortest possible time. Our staff has rated this year’s conference the best one ever. The surprise harbour cruise on the Kalibobo Spirit motor yacht to conclude our conference was the highlight of our three day stay for many who had never been on such a magnificent vessel before. Thank you Michael. Your closest personal attention to every single detail no matter how small, your immediate follow up on every request, and your supervision of your staff to ensure they provide service of the highest standard has ensured that our conference was very successful, very memorable and stress free for everyone. ~ Signed Paul Jones Sales Manager, Paradise Biscuits, Port Moresby
