The total indigenous population is estimated at around 5.9 million, increasing at around 2.7% annually. There are three basic ethnic groups: Polynesians, Melanesians and Micronesians. There are also a large number of distinct tribal groups, such as the Chimbu whose 500,000 members are widely distributed, as well as the Buka, Sepik, Tolai and Papuan.
Government, law, commerce and education are conducted in English and Pidgin. There are more than 860 recorded local languages, the most widely used being Tok Pisin (Pidgin) and Motu.
