  • ICTM Study Group on Musics of Oceania Circular No. 16 New
    ICTM Study Group on Musics of Oceania 17 April 1989 Circular No. 16 New Member We welcome Dr. Cynthia B. Sajnovsky to our Study Group. Please note her address on page 3 of this Circular and add it to the list of members distributed with Circular No. 15. ICTM Meeting in Schladming, Austria, 23-20 July 1989 So far, only Rossen has expressed the hope that members of our Study Group can get together during this World Conference. Of course, Christensen will attend in his capacity of Secretary General and Trimillos plans to attend in his capacity as member of the Executive Board. If other members do plan to participate/attend and would like to meet informally, I suggest you contact one of these three (I do not plan to attend). Other Forthcoming Events of Potential Interest to Members The 4th International Symposium of the Pacific Arts Association is to be held in Honolulu, 6-12 August 1989. (The sponsors are the Honolulu Academy of Arts, Bishop Museum, Office of Hawaiian Affairs, East-West Center, Hawaii Museums Association, Native Hawaiian Culture and Arts Program, Center for Pacific Islands Studies of the University of Hawaii, and Hawaii Loa College.) Reeves (now Helen Reeves Lawrence--congratulations, Helen!) and two other ICTM-SGMO members have expressed interest in an informal gathering with other members of our Study Group who may attend. The conference, titled "Artistic Heritage in a Changing Pacific," is clearly within our sphere of interests--especially the section on "Performing Arts." The other sections are "Role of the Museum in a Changing Pacific" (chaired by Kaeppler), "Visual Arts," and "The Future of Pacific Arts." The section on the performing arts is co-chaired by Moulin and Faustina Rehurer (Director of the Belau Museum).

In the spirit of a tough sporting challenge, the 2009 Pacific Mini Games presented numerous obstacles for the Cook Islands, its people, and Government. And although the early path to ‘victory’ was very much an uphill battle I am pleased to say that those faced with the task of producing these Games did not shy away from the jobs at hand. Of course, those jobs were many and everyone from the tireless volunteers to the relentless efforts of the organisers are deserving of high praise. In the aftermath of such a major event, particularly for a small island nation like ours, the focus often falls on the nature of ‘how’ and ‘why’ we struggled with certain difficulties.

In accordance with Regulation 20 of the Pacific Games Council Charter, NMASA offers the following information: Bid to Host the 2017 Pacific Mini Games: Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands 3 I. GENERAL BACKGROUND The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands is compromised of 14 lovely islands in northern Micronesia. On our three main islands of Saipan, Tinian and Rota, one experiences the unhurried, friendly lifestyle and warm, island hospitality that are as unforgettable as our magical Micronesian sunsets. The population of the Northern Mariana Islands, as of January 1, 2011, is estimated at 50,000. Saipan, our largest island and the proposed site for the 2017 Pacific Mini Games, is the most developed of the Northern Marianas, and is home to most of our population. Saipan offers the visiting athlete an inviting combination of modern amenities, such as a thriving tourism district with world-class hotels, restaurants, and shops, and the beauty of a clean and quiet tropical island. Almost all major venues, including proposed Games villages, sports venues, and leisure sites, are located within a short walk or drive.
