CONCLUSION I. INTRODUCTION The guarantee that persons unable to enjoy human rights in their country of nationality, who seek asylum in other countries, will not be returned to the country from which they fled is a significant achievement of international efforts to validate the assertion that those rights truly are the “rights of man.” There are currently 145 states,1 including Australia, that are parties to the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees (Refugees Convention)2 and/or the 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees (Refugees Protocol).3 The prohibition on refoulement is the key provision of the Refugees Convention.

    PART 3: THE LIMITS OF INDEPENDENCE Chapter 12 Independence and its Discontents apua New Guineans handled the transition to independence with flair, despite their Plimited experience, the speed with which they had to act and the explosive agenda that they inherited. With great skill and some luck, they brought their country united to independence with new institutions, a new public service, a guaranteed income and a home-made constitution. A Failing State? The coalition that achieved these feats tottered in 1978 when Julius Chan took the PPP into opposition, and collapsed in March 1980 when the Leader of the Opposition, Iambakey Okuk, won a no-confidence motion, naming Chan as preferred Prime Minister. Chan had quit the coalition over the attempt to buttress the Leadership Code (Chapter 9) and disagreement on relations between private business and public office. Somare returned to office after the 1982 election but once again he was ousted in mid- term by a vote of no confidence, yielding to the ambitious young Western Highlander Paias Wingti. The pattern was now set, whereby coalitions are formed after an election but no government survives the fixed five-year parliamentary term. Votes of no confi- dence are the mechanism for replacing one opportunist coalition with another. By this device, Wingti was replaced by Rabbie Namaliu, who yielded to Wingti again, who was replaced by Chan, whose coalition collapsed in the wake of a bungled attempt to employ mercenaries (see below). After the 1997 election, Bill Skate — a gregarious accountant from Gulf Province, Governor of Port Moresby and cheerful opportunist — held a Cabinet together for nearly two years.

  • New Commemorative Banknotes and Coins in Papua New Guinea
    L Wilson Kamit: New commemorative banknotes and coins in Papua New Guinea Speech by Mr L Wilson Kamit, CBE, Governor of the Bank of Papua New Guinea, at the Launch of the banknotes and coins to commemorate the 35th Anniversary of the Bank of Papua New Guinea, Port Moresby, 7 November 2008. * * * Thank you for accepting the invitation to join us at the Bank of Papua New Guinea to celebrate this important occasion. There are two important dates on our calendar we acknowledge each year. On 1st November 1973, soon after self-Government and almost 2 years before independence, the Bank of Papua New Guinea was established as the Central Bank of the emerging nation and a young Mr Henry ToRobert (now Sir Henry ToRobert) was appointed the first Governor. The new Secretary for finance then was Mr Mekere Morauta (Sir Mekere Morauta). The tasks before the two former Governors and particularly the Bank was to develop and pursue appropriate fiscal and monetary policies, adopt best practices in supervision of an infant financial system and introduce our own national currency. Such were the challenges. The Bank continues to face challenges and at times is compelled to undertake tasks outside of its core functions and these have been most satisfying. For instance, we were equity partners in starting up 2 commercial banks in the 1980s. In the 1990s, we were involved in the establishment of the Port Moresby Stock Exchange and the Governor was a Director from its inception till June 2008. Our role was to nurture the financial institutions from their establishment and once they were operational the Bank would exit.

  • Peter O'neill's Statecraft: a Skilful Politician
    Published on March 20, 2015 Peter O’Neill’s statecraft: a skilful politician By Jan Kees van Donge Peter O’Neill is a controversial politician; however, that may divert attention from the political skills that he displays. Firstly, he counters effectively the centrifugal tendencies in Papua New Guinean politics. Party formation probably remains a highly informal affair, but he succeeded in having 79 out of 111 parliamentarians identify with his party. The opposition is minute and, immediately after the 2012 election, consisted of only four seats. This increased when four members of Don Polye’s T.H.E party joined the opposition after being expelled from the government coalition. It was striking, Link: https://devpolicy.org/peter-oneills-statecraft-a-skilful-politician-20150320/ Page 1 of 4 Date downloaded: September 26, 2021 Published on March 20, 2015 however, that they were very reluctant to join the opposition and defined themselves initially as being on the middle bench when O’Neill dismissed Don Polye as minister of finance. The three ministers belonging to T.H.E. stayed on. Michael Somare’ s National Alliance also defined their position as on the middle bench when they formally left the coalition. Gary Juffa is the last example of this phenomenon: he moved to the middle benches but O’Neill relegated him to the opposition. Politicians are thus hesitant to be seen as opposing the O’Neill/Dion government. Secondly, O’Neil has displayed great skill in reinforcing his dominance by forging double-crossing allegiances while forming new coalitions. He seemed to be in an almost existential struggle with Michael Somare in 2011–2012 during the O’Neill/Namah government.

  • MEKERE - Miuri Lareva
    MEKERE - Miuri Lareva. Welcome to Mekere’s brothers - Elavo and Ivasa Morauta, and his sisters – Aru and Morisarea, and their children. The families of his deceased brothers, Moreare, Hasu and Siviri. From the Morauta Hasu (Mekere’s father’s) Family, Mekere’s aunts Moreare Hasu and Kauoti Hasu, their children and grandchildren. The children and grandchildren of Tete, Evera, Morisarea, Pukari, Sauka and Morara Hasu. And of Mekere’s mother Morikoai Elavo’s family, the children and grandchildren of Marere, Eae and Moriterope Elavo. Some sadness is so profound that it must be heard in the silence between the words. So it is with the death of our friend Mekere. When we were young, Mekere and I learned together about how humanity is governed. Over recent years we learned together about growing old. We shared the new things we learned as they happened in between. I will not use the time we have together today to dwell on the sadness of what we have lost and what we will miss forever. It is time to reflect on what we have learned from a full life lived well. The life of a good and great man. A good man who spent his whole adult life thinking about and working towards what could be made better for his country. A great man, who showed Papua New Guineans that governance as solid as humans have made anywhere could be sculpted in their beautiful and troubled land. A wise man, who knew that nothing was ever so good that it could not break down; or so bad that it could not be recovered.

    REGIONAL INITIATIVE TEMPLATE Please complete each section below. 1. Contact Details Please provide the following contact details: Name of individual or World Citizens Association of Australia group submitting initiative Name and position of A/Prof C J Hamer, President primary contact 2. Name of Initiative A Pacific Islands Community 3. Background and Rationale You may consider: What is the issue being addressed by this initiative? What are the causes of this issue? Are there relevant studies that have been carried out to support the issue? Are there links to national, regional or international goals/policies? Please limit your response to no more than 750 words. The primary objective of our World Citizens Association is to promote deeper integration and stronger governance at both global and regional levels, in order to preserve peace and promote prosperity in our global village. There has been a worldwide trend towards regional integration in recent decades, following the example set by Europe. After World War II, the Europeans determined to put an end to the long series of wars between France and Germany, and recognized that integration was the way to do it, as outlined in the Schuman Declaration (Schuman Declaration 1950). Despite various vicissitudes, the primary objectives of the pro- Europeans have already been achieved. Any future war between France and Germany has become inconceivable, and indeed Europe generally has become the most peaceful region on earth, according to the Global Peace Index (Global Peace Index). Furthermore, the economic integration brought about by the EEC produced an economic boom in Europe, and induced many new members to join, so that the number of member nations has expanded from the original six to the current 28.

Lack of experience and knowledge are a visible impediment to legitimacy, especially from the perspective of the rural areas.
