This is incorrect. It is depends on the tribe, but they are mostly only worn on ceremonial occasions. This representative is dressed like this to bring attention to the plight of indigenous West Papuans that reject the cultural cleansing that Indonesia is performing.

Correct I think on both occasions. I’ve not really seen PNG nationals wear this style and I went to a few Goroka Shows in the early 90s. I guess the dress is possible for border areas. Most likely Papuan or West Papuan.
