Inaccuracy[edit]

"In the province is the only part of Papua New Guinea which is west of the 141°E line that divides it from Indonesian Western New Guinea. This is a small section of territory to the east of the Fly River."

But isn't Sandaun another province bordering Irian Jaya? — Stevey7788 (talk) 05:44, 28 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but the border follows the Fly River along a small stretch which forms a natural barrier, Indonesia conceded this small amount of territory to PNG in the Western Province, which is west of the 141°E line, as it would have created an area that was difficult to administer logistically. the statement is correct Alaisd 11:33, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Inaccuracy[edit]

The link under the image of the flag navigates to the Flag of Western Province page that deals with the Western Province of Sri Lanka, not PNG. Leizer89 —Preceding undated comment added 20:51, 29 November 2011 (UTC).[reply]
