PNG: Electoral Commission says counting too slow
Updated
Papua New Guinea's former prime minister Sir Mekere Morauta has comfortably won his Port Moresby seat, as counting continues in the national elections. Sir Mekere led the country until losing out to current prime minister Sir Michael Somare in 2002. His return to Parliament will guarantee Sir Michael stiff competition for the prime ministership when the new government forms. Sir Mekere and Bart Philemon -- the former treasurer and leader of the PNG Party have pledged to challenge Sir Michael for the top job.
