05/11/2021 (Papua New Guinea) - Consider deferring nonessential travel to Alotau until security conditions improve. Expect localized ground transport disruptions, and check with local contacts on possible road closures before driving. If a crowd forms nearby, immediately depart the area and seek shelter in a secure, nongovernment building due to the potential for clashes with security personnel.
