Wantok Niuspepa (Wantok Newspaper) is a weekly newspaper in Papua New Guinea. It is the only Tok Pisin-language newspaper in Papua New Guinea, and is distributed throughout the country.^[1] It was first published on 5 August 1970 from an office in Wewak with Father Francis Mihalic, a member of the Society of the Divine Word order, as its editor; while the project had first been initiated by Catholic bishops, it subsequently received limited support thereafter. It moved to Port Moresby in 1976.^[2] It is now operated by the Word Publishing Company.^[1]
