  • E. Mei-Li Roberts Phd Thesis
    Translating Identities: ‘Being a missionary’ in Papua New Guinea Submitted by: E. Mei-Li Roberts For the degree of: PhD (Social Anthropology) Date of submission: March 13, 2006 Abstract Many studies of missionaries have taken an historical perspective, looking particularly at missionaries’ role in colonialism. However, missionaries are still very much part of contemporary Papua New Guinea (PNG), with a significant number of expatriate missionary groups working in PNG. This thesis is a study of a present day mission in PNG, SIL International, formerly known as the Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL). It examines the way in which the mission community is constructed and the boundaries and divisions within the community itself. It attempts to challenge some of the stereotypes of missionaries and show that there are different views of what it is to ‘be a missionary’ even within the missionary community itself. I focus particularly on what it means to ‘be a missionary’ and the ambiguities and ambivalences between the ideals and realities of mission work. The focus of the study was on SIL members themselves and their identities as missionaries rather than the effect of their missionising on others. This is examined through a number of different themes. Debates about the fence surrounding the mission station highlighted the way in which it created both a physical and a symbolic boundary between those living inside the fence and the people living outside of it. Related to this were debates regarding the mission station, Ukarumpa and how SIL members should ‘communicate the gospel’. SIL’s main goal is Bible translation and the thesis explores the challenges and problems of translation, both the practical aspects of Bible translation and translating between cultures.

  • 16. Communication, Logistics and Inter-Agency Partnerships in the Eastern Highlands Provincial Electorate
    16. Communication, Logistics and Inter-Agency Partnerships in the Eastern Highlands Provincial Electorate Michael Unage With the introduction of limited preferential voting (LPV), and the late legislative change to voting procedures in November 2006, many predicted that the 2007 general election would be a failure. Nonetheless, there was general satisfaction with the election outcome, with election-related violence in the Highlands down significantly from 2002 levels. Among factors contributing to electoral success, communications, logistics and inter-agency partnership were critical. This paper examines issues of communications, logistics and inter- agency partnership in the Eastern Highlands provincial electorate. Background Eastern Highlands is one of the 19 provincial electorates in the country. It shares borders with Morobe, Madang, Simbu and Gulf provinces. Eastern Highlands has eight open electorates—Daulo, Goroka, Unggai-Bena, Lufa, Henganofi, Okapa, Kainantu and Obura-Wonenara (Figure 16.1). At the 2000 census, Eastern Highlands had a population of 432,972. In 2007 the total number of votes polled in the provincial electorate was 354,495. There are 24 local-level governments (LLGs) in the province: two urban LLGs (Goroka Urban and Kainantu Urban) and 22 rural LLGs. Population is concentrated in the flat lands around Kainantu and Goroka, reflecting the gravitation of people towards the urban areas. Goroka town was established in 1939 and became the major administrative and commercial centre of the province. The province has rich temperate valleys and ridges, which attracted the attention of early gold prospectors such as Mick Dwyer and Mick Leahy and now support a thriving arabica coffee industry. Coffee, ‘the money that grows on trees’, is the lifeblood of Eastern Highlands Province.

  • Project Proposal Form 2019
    Project Proposal Form 2019 Introduction One of the key objectives of the National ICT Policy is to ensure equitable access to Information and Communication Technology Services. The policy objective is founded on the premise that ICT is seen as necessary tool for economic growth and social development. The Universal Access Board within NICTA is mandated to give effect to this policy by identifying and developing projects aimed at bridging the telecommunications and ICT gap that limits the opportunities available to ordinary citizens. Within this context, the National Information and Communications Technology Authority (NICTA) is inviting stakeholders including the general public, ICT operators and service providers to propose or suggest any projects or programs that you think are consistent with the overarching goals within the ICT sector and that NICTA should consider in its current or future programs. Proposals that are accepted will be considered by the UAS Board for potential inclusion in the 2019 UAS programs. Scope of Proposals All stakeholders including the general public, ICT operators and service providers are invited to propose or suggest any project for NICTA’s consideration. The submitted proposals should seek to promote the long-term economic and social development of Papua New Guinea through projects that will among other things, encourage the development of ICT infrastructure and improve the availability of ICT services within the country including under-served communities and geographic areas. Proponents are advised to note that submitting proposals does not secure funding/assistance from NICTA in any form or guarantee inclusion in the UAS programs. Submitted proposals will only be received as project concepts for NICTA’s consideration.

    Papua New Guinea Trans-Island Highway Construction Project (I) (II) Report Date: February 2003 Field Survey: October – November 2002 1. Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Wewack Indonesia Papua New Guinea Lae Project site Port Moresby Australia Project site Section of the Bereina-Malalaua Road 1.1 Background In Papua New Guinea (PNG), the absence of road links between its capital, Port Moresby, the second city, Lae, and the Highland Province, home to vigorous mining and agricultural production activity, meant a sole reliance on marine and air transport, a situation that was highly inefficient both in economic and social terms. To address this, the government formulated plans to construct a road linking the cities of Port Moresby and Lae that would pass through the Owen Stanley mountains, and in 1979, the Australian government supported the implementation of a feasibility study (F/S) for this route. The plan for the trans-island Port Moresby – Lae highway comprised a stretch spanning 575 kilometers, and included construction of a new 80 kilometer road between Bereina and Malalaua, detailed designs for the 135 kilometer section between Malalaua and Aseki, and widening of the existing 90 kilometer stretch between Aseki and Latep (all distances are approximate). Other sections were excluded from the plan. In the southern Bereina-Malalaua section that was covered by this project, local residents were dependent upon marine transport, a situation that was, in fact, akin to living on an isolated inland islands. It was anticipated that the construction of a new road linking the area with the capital Port Moresby, would make a substantial contribution to economic development and to improving the services like health and education.
