Details of the Proposed Grant 1. Description of the Components, Monitorable Deliverables/Outcomes, and Implementation Timetable Component A Component Name Improving Social Infrastructure and Services for the Poor Communities Cost ($) 649,048 Component Description A1. Expanding School and Health Facilities Education and health are basic social services, and are important for poverty reduction. The relocation of 482 households with a population of 2,912 to Malahang as part of the Lae Port Development Project will stretch existing school and health facilities in that area. The component will expand 3 the Bowali elementary and primary schools, Malahang Technical School, and Malahang clinic to accommodate 473 more pupils and additional demand for health services. A2. Providing Community Infrastructure for All Urban populations in the resettlement area do not have community infrastructure. This component will build a sports area and a community center, and will provide a roof, and water and electrical service to improve an existing market. Monitorable Deliverables/ A1. Expanding School and Health Facilities for Children’s Outputs Education 1. Four hundred seventy-three additional children enrolled in the schools. 2. Six class rooms built for three schools. 3. Ten houses for teachers constructed at the schools. 4. Additional teachers provided by the government. 5. Malahang clinic expanded. A2. Provision of Community Facilities 1. A 200-square-meter community center and a sports area provided. 2. A roof provided for the existing market. 3. Service utilities provided for the community center. Implementation of Major Activities: Number of months 36 Months for grant activities Component B Component Name Income Improvement Cost ($) 430,471 Component Description B1. Agricultural Extension for Resettlers Income generation is fundamental to alleviating poverty. This component will assist in small-scale agricultural and animal husbandry. It will set up demonstration plots for the husbandry of chickens, ducks, rabbits, and fish, and provide training and extension services to the communities in home processing of food products for sale, including chips, jam, dried fruits, snacks, fruit juices, and cookies. The National Agricultural Research Institute will provide most of these services. B2. Agricultural Extension for Labu Villages The people of the three Labu villages, about 2 kilometers from the project area, are poor. The crops they cultivate and the animals they raise are used mostly for subsistence. Their 4 productivity can be increased to respond to high demands for vegetable and meat products through improved cultivation and husbandry techniques and the marketing of their products to provide them with cash income. The National Agricultural Research Institute will provide most of these services. B3. Community-Based Floating Fish Cages for Labu Villages The Labu people are primarily engaged in fishing. The component will help them increase their incomes by establishing community fish cages in the lagoons near their villages. Activities will include: (i) construction and operation of the demonstration floating fish cages, (ii) provision of resources to set up 10 community-managed

  • Papua New Guinea's Emergent Longline Fishery
    Papua New Guinea's emergent longline fishery Two Hawaii-based fishing vessels are currently participating in the longline fishery in Papua New Guinea (PNG), in the south west tropical Pacific. The two vessels, which fish in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands for lobsters are on charter in PNG between lobster fishing seasons. PNG is one of the largest Pacific nations, straddling Southeast Asia and the South Pacific, with one of the largest EEZs in the region and abundant tuna resources. Like the rest of the Pacific, PNG is keen to expand its longline fishing industry for the lucrative fresh tuna market in Japan. Fishing trials in 1994 and 1995 in Rabaul, Finchaven and the capital city, Port Moresby, demonstrated the feasibility of a domestic fishery in PNG; although the productivity of the resource was evident from the long history of fishing in PNG waters by Korean, Taiwanese and Japanese longliners. From 1994 onwards various local companies began to establish fishing operations at various ports throughout the country, but with most activity centered around Port Moresby. A longline fishery management plan was developed by the National Fisheries Authority in 1995, which included a ban on foreign longliners operating in the PNG EEZ. Licensing guidelines were also introduced which included a minimum of 51% PNG equity in joint ventures, and short-term charter of foreign vessels to PNG companies on a 1:1 basis with the number of local vessels in a company fleet. Presently there are 20 longliners operating in PNG, with the majority of vessels being based in Port Moresby. Fishing companies outside of the capital include one in Alotau and the two others in PNG=s second city Lae.

  • Salamaua Falls
    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.

    CHROMOSOMAL POLYMORPHISM IN DROSOPHILA RUBIDA MATHER WHARTON B. MATHER' Zoology Department, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia Received January 30, 1961 HE population geneticist is essentially interested in the variation of gene fre- Tquencies in natural populations. Within chromosomal inversions blocks of genes are contained and in many species of Drosophila due to the presence of easily analysable giant chromosomes, the behavior of these blocks of genes can be easily studied in natural populations. Thus, of recent years chromosomal inver- sion polymorphism in the genus Drosophila has been extensively studied (see review by DA CUNHA1955 and discussion by GOLDSCHMIDT1958), the most extensive work having been done on the temperate species D.pseudoobscura Fro- lowa from northwestern America, D.robusta Sturtevant from eastern America and D. subobsczua Collin from Europe and the tropical species D. willistoni Sturtevant from South America. From this work it has been suggested that the genetical significance of inversions is to maintain coadapted gene sequences by the elimination of chromatids produced by crossing over within the limits of heterozygous inversions. PATTERSONand STONE(1952) list 17 species in the immigrans species group, the majority being from the Australian and Oriental geographical regions. In spite of the giant chromosomes of those members of the group which have been studied being very suitable for detailed analysis, anly D. immigrans has been examined for polymorphism. A number of inversions have been detected by FREIRE-MAIA,ZANARDINI and FREIRE-MAIA(1953) and BRNCIC(1955) in South America, GRUBER(1958) in Israel and TOYOFUKU(l957,1958a,b) in Japan. In 1958 Drosophila collections were made at Cairns in northeastern Australia and a new species of the immigrans species group discovered.
