IN 100 WORDS OR LESS MY TRIP IN A CATALINA Suddenly the co-pilot was tugging at our sleeves and gesticulating wildly; no chance to talk in the screaming slip-stream of air rushing across the open Catalina portholes but when we saw him grabbing sacks at our feet and stumbling forward with them we caught the urgency, unclipped our safety harness and followed him in tossing sacks back up the front of the Catalina. The plane was tail-heavy and rapidly losing the characteristics of flight. We were air-dropping double-bagged sacks of rice and meat and the cargo-boys had completely emptied the first bay instead of progressively emptying each bay. Level flight again and lots of smiles! Paul Brigg 3 In the latter half of 1952, I was District Clerk at Kikori, where Jim OMalley was District Commissioner. At the time Syd Smith and Des Clancy were involved in constructing the airstrip at the new station of Tari, in the Southern Highlands. Supplies for this party were airdropped by Qantas Catalina which called at Kikori for extra fuel before proceeding to Tari via Lake Kutubu. On this particular flight the DC detailed Patrol Officer Garry Keenan and I to go with the plane to assist with the actual drop procedure. All went well to start with. There were two storepedos (long containers with a parachute and collapsible nose) for the more fragile supplies, with all other items loosely packed in hessian bags. The storepedos were no trouble but the hessian bags were another thing! They were filthy, and while balancing the packages on the edge of the planes blister, the slipstream forced the dust and dirt from the bags directly into our eyes, which we had to keep open to see the drop signal. Somehow we managed to accomplish this and the drop was successful. On the way home the skipper, Freddy Fox, passed word to us that he was going to give us a treat by flying low over the magnificent Beaver Falls a sight not many had been privileged to see. Unfortunately by this time our eyes were in such a state that we could hardly see anything so the great gesture was lost to us.

(There are two reasons why we do our art: the first is to maintain our culture, the second is to earn money). Injalak Arts and Crafts Corporate Plan INTRODUCTION In the last chapter, the example of bark paintings was used to test Western categories for indigenous art. Reference was also made to Aboriginal systems of classification, in particular the ways Yolngu people classify painting, including bark painting. Morphy's concept, that Aboriginal art exists in two 'frames', was briefly introduced, and his view was cited that Yolngu artists increasingly operate within both 'frames', the Aboriginal frame and the European frame (Morphy 1991:26). This chapter develops the theme of how indigenous art objects are valued, both within the creator society and when they enter the Western art-culture system. When aesthetic objects move between cultures the values attached to them may change.

  • Abstract of Counting Systems of Papua New Guinea and Oceania
    Abstract of http://www.uog.ac.pg/glec/thesis/ch1web/ABSTRACT.htm Abstract of Counting Systems of Papua New Guinea and Oceania by Glendon A. Lean In modern technological societies we take the existence of numbers and the act of counting for granted: they occur in most everyday activities. They are regarded as being sufficiently important to warrant their occupying a substantial part of the primary school curriculum. Most of us, however, would find it difficult to answer with any authority several basic questions about number and counting. For example, how and when did numbers arise in human cultures: are they relatively recent inventions or are they an ancient feature of language? Is counting an important part of all cultures or only of some? Do all cultures count in essentially the same ways? In English, for example, we use what is known as a base 10 counting system and this is true of other European languages. Indeed our view of counting and number tends to be very much a Eurocentric one and yet the large majority the languages spoken in the world - about 4500 - are not European in nature but are the languages of the indigenous peoples of the Pacific, Africa, and the Americas. If we take these into account we obtain a quite different picture of counting systems from that of the Eurocentric view. This study, which attempts to answer these questions, is the culmination of more than twenty years on the counting systems of the indigenous and largely unwritten languages of the Pacific region and it involved extensive fieldwork as well as the consultation of published and rare unpublished sources.

  • 75 Years of Activity in Ghana
    1 JANUARY 2013 A WORD FROM THE PROVINCIAL Dear Confreres, 22001133!! We had a nice Family Feast celebration last week in Nsawam where we celebrated the following jubilees of our confreres: Henry Noordermeer – 50 77 55 yyeeaarrss years priesthood; B. Dan Berek – 25 years priesthood; Antonius Hibur – 25 years vows; Daniel Lenwah – 25 years vows. We also celebrated 25 years in vows of our Sisters: Kamila Kubiak and Cecilia Boateng.. ooff This time the confreres came in very early on the 24th, especially the young ones. Many Sisters also came early. The number of confreres and sisters present for this Family Feast was probably the highest so far. It was a very SSVVDD meaningful celebration. Fr. Lenwah was the main celebrant for the Mass and Fr. Dan Berek preached on mission. Our congratulations again to all the MM iissssiioonnaarryy jubilarians. Talking about jubilees, the Archdiocese of Accra is remembering the first missionaries’ arrival in Greater Accra 120 years ago. The SMA Missionaries landed in Accra 120 years ago and handed over the mission to the SVD after AA ccttiivviittyy our arrival in 1938. All of us are invited for this celebration on 31st January for a solemn High Mass presided over by the Apostolic Nuncio to Ghana in and concelebrated by the SMA and SVD Provincials and other priests. It will in be held in the CFAO car park. Being a very historic event, please do your very best to be present for this very solemn occasion. As we have already written to you, there will be a province visitation from GGhhaannaa 17th April to 15th May.

  • The Death of Godeffroy's Kleinschmidt, and the Perception of H
    “STORI BILONG WANPELA MAN NEM BILONG EM TOBOALILU,” THE DEATH OF GODEFFROY’S KLEINSCHMIDT, AND THE PERCEPTION OF HISTORY Heinz Schütte Paris, France Introduction This article is a footnote to a question of prime theoretical interest, namely the process of transition from one societal form to another. It poses another question that is, however, of central importance in that context: How is history made and how is it retained in the memory of those who come after? This question cannot be answered hastily, and the present essay is to be regarded only as an illustration of a very par- ticular case in New Guinea. Two levels of “history” are presented that in reality represent one event; that is, one aspect of European expansion overseas in the course of which the people whom that expansion came to dominate were deprived of their own history.’ What will be related here, then, are two versions of the same event, viewed through two mutually exclusive sets of interests that shaped their respective perspectives: that of the Europe- ans, their Pacific helpers and their allies, and that of the Utuan and Mioko peoples native to the area. Yet even within these two groups there emerge significant differences of perception and interpretation that- albeit at times overlapping-are contingent on the actors’ relative posi- tion in the drama that is acted out. The one version would maintain that it is “history,” objectively reporting what happened, the other that it is a “story” or “tradition,” known by individuals or small groups and only to be expressed orally.

  • Loggers, Donors and Resource Owners PAPUA NEW Papua New Guinea Is Well Endowed with Tropical Forest, Almost All of Which Is Held by Local People Under Customary Title
    Policy thatworksforforestsandpeople Loggers, donors and resource owners PAPUA NEW Papua New Guinea is well endowed with tropical forest, almost all of which is held by local people under customary title. But the forest sector is in a mess. Over the last ten years a major national process G UINEA of policy and institutional reform has sought to sort out the sector, but some key features of PNG society continue to frustrate this process. The ‘ideology of resource ownership’ is the core of national identity, yet it undermines the potential for diversified economic development based on the use or value of land and forests. Also, a widespread obsession with the pursuit of personal political power grows alongside an equally widespread loss of faith in the ability of government to deliver social and economic devel- opment. These contradictions help to explain why the national policy process centres on a struggle between the logging industry and donor agencies for the hearts and minds of the resource owners. Whilst this struggle throws up many problems, it also presents opportunities for establishing a new approach to policy for forests and people. This would establish the common ground upon which a wider coalition of interests - a new ‘policy community’ - could be built. Opportunities include: developing mechanisms for testing and publicising claims to productive innovation; combining different scales of No: 2 NewGuinea Papua Sekhran with Filer enterprise; generating a vision of the public interest through dialogue; and installing a brokering mechanism to connect needs with existing capacities. Policy that works for forests and people series Forest issues often concern large amounts of money, long timeframes, huge areas of land, and diverse livelihoods.

The airport designed for Boeing 747 and the new Airbus 380 will also provide a staging point for control of the vast PNG Designated Fishing Zone (DFZ). Effectively this increases the level of regulation and compliance on visiting international fishing fleets and provides a way of monitoring their impact. Initially the project focus is on developing commercial artisanal fisheries for St Mathias islanders and marketing high quality hand-fished fresh seafoods under a unique brand that promotes the sustainability of the fisheries, the environment and a values- based society.
