  • Hon. Yosiwo P. George Eighth Vice President of the Federated States of Micronesia
    Hon. Yosiwo P. George Eighth Vice President of the Federated States of Micronesia George was born in Kosrae on July 24th, 1941. His rich and varied public and political life started during the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands (TTPI) and has continued through today. His public service experiences began as an Engineer Trainee at the Pohnpei Transportation Authority, later as a classroom teacher in Kolonia Elementary School, and then as the TTPI Social Security manager in Saipan. George later served as Kosrae's Lieutenant Governor for a partial term, when he was appointed by the 1st President of the FSM, Tosiwo Nakayama, as the Director of Department of Social Services with foci on health, education, and community services. After many accomplishments in the Department of Social Services, George was reminded again of his home in Kosrae, and ran for Governor of Kosrae State, where he served two full and consecutive terms. George was then appointed by President Bailey Olter to serve as the Ambassador of the FSM to the United Nations, where he served with distinction for three years. International service on behalf of the FSM inspired George to run for a seat in the Congress of the FSM, and in the 10th Congress he began his service as a Senator for four years. George was later appointed by Governor Rensley Sigrah to serve as the Chief Justice for Kosrae State Court, where he served until 2006 when he was then called upon by President Manny Mori to serve as the Administrator for MiCare. After several years of dedicated service, President Mori appointed George to be the Ambassador of the FSM to the United States, which additional accreditation to the State of Israel.

  • Country Economic Review
    Federated States of Micronesia Proceedings March 28 to April 2, 2004 Palikir, Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia FOREWORD To all participants of the 3rd FSM Economic Summit, I wish to thank you for your contributions to a successful Summit. I fully agree with the Floor Leader of the Pohnpei State Legislature, Fernando Scaliem, who said in his closing remarks, “I am confident that the results of this Summit will provide us with a realistic and viable road map for the future growth of our Nation.” I am pleased to see that broad participation was achieved during the Summit, including key contribu- tions from our traditional leaders, church groups, non-governmental and international donor organiza- tions. The spirited discussions during plenary sessions are a clear indication of the level importance our Nation’s representatives brought to this meeting. I wish to thank all of the Summit’s participants for their dedication and hard work. The goals of our Summit were to (a) increase awareness of the Compact, as amended; (b) achieve consensus on an overall economic strategy; and (c) improve the monitoring mechanisms to support economic growth. I’d like to take a moment to address these. As our nation continues on its journey toward economic self-reliance, we clearly face many chal- lenges, not least including the structure of the amended Compact with the annual decrement and par- tial inflation adjustment. The Select Committee formed during the Summit has chosen a high-growth scenario, and the Summit has endorsed this choice as well. This decision for economic growth will require an initial investment in reforms but will ultimately lead to a sustainable economy.

  • 006, When I Arrived Jet Lagged and Unprepared for a Field Director Position with a Teaching Non-Profit Called Worldteach
    EATING EMPIRE, GOING LOCAL: FOOD, HEALTH, AND SOVEREIGNTY ON POHNPEI, 1899-1986 BY JOSH LEVY DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Frederick Hoxie, Chair Professor Vicente Diaz Professor David Hanlon Professor Kristin Hoganson Associate Professor Martin Manalansan ABSTRACT Eating Empire, Going Local centers the island of Pohnpei, Micronesia in a global story of colonial encounter and dietary change. It follows Pohnpeians and Pohnpei’s outer Islanders in their encounters with Spain, Germany, Japan, and the United States, negotiating, adapting to, and resisting empire through food and food production. In the process, Pohnpei extended food’s traditional role as locus of political influence and used it to navigate deceptively transformative interventions in ecology, consumption, the market, and the body. Food became Pohnpei’s middle ground, one that ultimately fostered a sharp rise in rates of non-communicable diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension. The chapters draw on global commodity histories that converge on the island, of coconuts, rice, imported foods, and breadfruit. These foods illuminate the local and global forces that have delivered public health impacts and new political entanglements to the island. Eating Empire uses food and the analytic lenses it enables – from ecology and race to domesticity and sovereignty – as a tool to reimagine Pohnpei’s historical inter-imperial and contemporary political relationships from the bottom up. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The first time I saw Pohnpei was in the summer of 2006, when I arrived jet lagged and unprepared for a field director position with a teaching non-profit called WorldTeach.
