The major operation, which started on Wednesday, was aimed at flushing out all foreigners who are living and working illegally in the border province. “We are getting too many illegal aliens here. Some are coming through to live and work here, others are passing through to move on into Australia and countries in the Pacific,” provincial police commander, Senior Inspector Sakawar Kasieng said from Vanimo yesterday.
