Chief Administrator of Bougainville
Landmark Bougainville elections were held in June 2005 which restored the utonomous government of Bougainville (ABG). Tsiamalili co-ordinated the successful elections and restoration of Bougainville's government, in which Joseph Kabui was elected the first President of the Autonomous Region of Bougainville.
The PNG government cabinet under Michael Somare appointed Tsiamalili as the first administrator of the Autonomous Region of Bougainville following the elections. Tsiamalili remained the top bureaucrat within the PNG government, while simultaneously playing an important behind-the-scenes role in the Bougainville peace process. He also oversaw the establishment of Bougainville's fledgling public service as the island's administrator.
