The Papua New Guinea opposition leader, Don Polye, is calling on the government to pay retired public servants their outstanding superannuation.

He said when the 2017 Budget is out later this year the government should consider repaying more than $US620 million due to them from state contributions to the superannuation agency, Nambawan Super Ltd.

Mr Polye said the government has betrayed these people by failing to pay the employer's contribution of 8.4 per cent.
