The researchers, the Justice Advisory Group, and the National Research Institute would like to acknowledge the contribution of all the people and organisations involved in the research: • the Governments of Papua New Guinea, Australia, and Morobe Province, which sought out the infonnation and made the research possible; • the various people in Papua New Guinea and Australia who contributed to peer review; and • the data collectors and field workers who participated in the field work in Lae. We also thank the community leaders and groups that supported the research, and especially, those people who gave their time freely to answer our questions openly and helpfully. Since 2004, extensive surveys of crime victimisationin Port Moresby, Arawa, and Buka have given the first complete pictures of crime victimisationwhich affects households in those towns. The surveys quantified crime from the perspective of the victims in the community. The surveys were about crime victimisation, as reported by household members, rather than crime for which convictions have been reached through the legal system. In 2005, the surveys were extended to include the collection of baseline data in Lae. The community survey in Lae interviewed 404 people, aged 15 years and over, in 145 households. The sample was statisticallyrepresentative, and facilitates generalisations to the adult population ofLae. Lae is Papua New Guinea's second largest city and the most important one on the northern New Guinea side of the country. Because Lae is connected to many other provinces by relatively low-cost road and sea routes, it is a convenient destination for many villagers who are seeking an urban stay. While some Lae settlements tend to follow the well-known pattern of chain migration and local clustering of ethnic groups, as found elsewhere in Papua New Guinea, Lae settlements have a different character from those in Port Moresby. At present, they appear less effective in relation to community crime prevention and control. While Port Moresby has an international reputation for crime and violence, Lae is often thought, within Papua New Guinea, to have similar problems to the nation's capital. This survey provides evidence on victimisation,and makes comparisons with the 2005 Port Moresby survey. Lae residents reported higher victimisation levels than those found in previous surveys in Port Moresby, Arawa, and Buka in 2004 and 2005, but lower than those reported in Mt. Hagen in 2006: • household crime victimisation levels in Lae were three percent to 22 percent higher than the crime levels in Port Moresby; • seventy-eight percent of households reported that they had been the victims of crime, at least once in the past year (compared to 61 percent in Port Moresby); • residents in Lae were the least likely in any of the surveys, to think that their crime situation was improving; • many respondents reported that youth gangs were a serious problem; and • community cohesion in Lae appears to be lower than in other towns, which reduced community effectiveness in crime prevention and control. • as elsewhere, many respondents thought that crime and corruption in Papua New Guinea were very high; • a very low level of public awareness existed about the actions of Law and Justice Sector Agencies when dealing with crime and corruption. Strategy 1.3.1 of the Government of Papua New Guinea's Law and Justice Sector Strategic Framework is 'to improve urban safety'.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-89681-8 - The Battle for Wau: New Guinea’s Frontline 1942-1943 Phillip Bradley Excerpt More information CHAPTER 1 Salamaua Falls The town of Wau, at the head of the Bulolo Valley in what is now Papua New Guinea, had its foundation in gold. It was in the early 1920s that the first gold was found in the Bulolo Valley, with the first miner’s right issued in December 1923. As the goldfields developed, the coastal town of Salamaua became their key supply port. Salamaua lies some 50 kilometres to the northeast of Wau and almost 40 kilometres directly south of Lae across the Huon Gulf. The old town is on the isthmus of a peninsula that juts out into the Solomon Sea like an accusing finger, pointed to the northeast. On 21 October 1925 the first cargo boat, the MV Marsina, called at its port. As the news spread, more people came to Salamaua to head up into the mountains for the promise of riches at Wau. Both towns grew, though that growth would always be limited by the strenuous eight-day trek from the coast up to Wau. An air route was sorely needed. In 1927 a former Australian officer from the First World War, Cecil Levien, brought 250 native labourers to Lae and constructed a landing ground there. Ray Parer, who had been narrowly beaten by Sir Ross and Keith Smith as the first to fly from England to Australia, flew the first aeroplane, a De Havilland DH-4, from Rabaul to Lae.

  • CHAPTER 12 INFRASTRUCTURE and SERVICES PLAN (Sectoral)
    The Project for the Study on Lae-Nadzab Urban Development Plan in Papua New Guinea CHAPTER 12 INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES PLAN (Sectoral) Spatial and economic development master plans prepared in the previous Chapter 11 are the foundation of infrastructure and social service development projects. In this chapter, the Project target sector sub-projects are proposed based on the sector based current infrastructure and social service status studies illustrated in Chapter 6 of the Report. In particular, transportation sector, water supply sector, sanitation & sewage sector, waste management sector, storm water & drainage sector and social service sector (mainly education and healthcare) are discussed, and power supply sector and telecommunication sector possibilities are indicated. Each of these sub-projects is proposed in order to maximize positive impact to the regional economic development as well as spatial development in the Project Area. Current economic activities and market conditions in the region are taken into consideration with the economic development master plan in order to properly identify local needs of infrastructure and social services. The development of industry to improve economic activities in the region becomes the key to change such livelihood in Lae-Nadzab Area with stable job creation, and proposed infrastructure sub-projects will be so arranged to maximize the integration with economic development. 12.1 Land Transport 12.1.1 Travel Demand Forecasting Figure 12.1.1 shows the flowchart of the travel demand forecasting process of the Project Area. The travel analysis was based on the traditional four-step model. The data from the household survey, person trip survey, traffic count survey and roadside interview survey were the main inputs of the analysis.
