  • 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.

The central part of the island rises into a wide ridge of mountains known as the Highlands, a terri- Kokoda tory that is so densely forested and topographically forbidding that the island’s local people remained Tufi isolated from each other for millennia. The coastline Owers’ Crn is liberally endowed with spectacular coral reefs, giv- Port Moresby ing the country an international reputation for scuba diving. The smaller island groups of Papua New Alotau Guinea include the Bismarck Archipelago, New Brit- ain, New Ireland and the North Solomon’s. Some of these islands are volcanic, with dramatic mountain ranges, and all are relatively undeveloped. Nearly 85 percent of the main island is carpeted with tropical rain forest, containing vegetation that has its origins from Asia and Australia. The country is also home to an impressive variety of exotic birds, in- cluding virtually all of the known species of Bird’s of Paradise, and it is blessed with more kinds of orchids than any other country. For centuries, the South Pa- cific has been luring the traveller who searched for excitement, beauty and tranquillity. The exploits of sailors to the South Pacific have been told and re- told, but in telling, there is one large country which is not mentioned, Papua New Guinea.

  • Goroka Market
    NOT FOR PUBLICATION INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS EPW-8 P. O. Box 628, Goroka :rket Port Moresby, Papua, Territory of Papua & New Guinea OCtober 6, 967 Mr. Richard H. Nolte, Executive Director, Institute of Current World Affairs, 366 Madison Avenue, New York I007, New York, United States of America Dear Mr. Nolte, Goroka lies on the main Highlands Highway roughly midway between Mount Hagen and Lae. It is the end of the road for many of the hundreds of trucks that travel each week between the Highlands and the coast, for beyond Goroka the road is oftem closed because of landslips, and it is marginal whether it is cheaper to transport goods by road, or by air to and from Madang. Beyond Goroka one's chances of a backload to the coast grow dimmer as one progresses inland, for even in the Highlands, presently the area with the highest economic potential in the Territory, more goods are still transported in than are eported to other centres. As was until recently the case in Mount Hagen, and is still quite glaringly so in _anantu, Goroka is effectively cut in two by its airstrip. Aeroplanes were landing egularly in the Highlands up to 20 years before the first trucks came up the Eassam Pass in the early 950s. Throughout most of the week Goroka has a rather quiet air. Indeed, unless one is part of the various indi.enous, public service, academic, coercial or planting components of the local scene, it can be a very boring town. Coming from the coast, the Highlands Highway enters the commercial part of town, where the hotel, rotel and guesthouse, and the few main general stores are located.

Mark Blackden and Maxie Makambo Dominic (consultants), under the overall leadership and guidance of Anuja Utz (World Bank) and Amy Luinstra (IFC) (co-task team leaders). The team benefited from the valuable support of Franz Drees-Gross (Country Director for Timor-Leste, Papua New Guinea, and the Pacific Islands, World Bank), Tania Lozanky (Senior Manager, East Asia and Pacific Advisory Management, IFC), Gavin Murray (Regional Manager, IFC ) and Steffi Stallmeister (Country Manager for Papua New Guinea, World Bank). Helpful guidance provided by Laura Bailey (former World Bank Country Manager, Papua New Guinea) and Carolyn Blacklock (IFC Resident Representative, Papua New Guinea) is especially appreciated. The team is grateful for the valuable support and insights provided by the staff of the World Bank and IFC in Port Moresby, especially Liam Grealish (IFC) and Allan Oliver (World Bank). Nicole Jenner, Erik Caldwell Johnson, Kofi Nouve, and James Reichert (World Bank), and Deepak Adhikary, Charles Lor, Serah Sipani, and Rahmad Syakib (IFC) provided useful inputs throughout the drafting process. The report endeavors to reflect the ideas and perspectives of stakeholders met during the in-country consultations in January-February 2014, and of the participants at the stakeholder workshop that was held in Port Moresby in April 2014. This workshop brought together some sixty participants — from government, the private sector, think tanks, research institutes, NGOs, women’s groups, and the donor community — who are actively engaged in the supply chains for coffee, cocoa and fresh produce in Papua New Guinea.
