  • Indigenous Property Rights
    INDIGENOUS PROPERTY RIGHTS: CUSTOM AND COMMERCE AT THE INTERFACE – A CASE STUDY OF THE AHI PEOPLE’S LAND, MOROBE PROVINCE, PNG Lynne Armitage Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane Australia 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Contemporary issues Land resource management in Papua New Guinea (PNG) has been experiencing substantial pressure over the last few years in response to economic and social development and change. Customary tenure is the dominant form of tenure yet it has received very little attention as a resource which underpins such development. Over recent years, the economy has sought to manage the impacts of external influences, such as globalisation and a decline in commodity prices, whilst beset by many internal political upheavals. Within the context of such structural readjustment, this paper examines the interrelationship between customary and alienated tenure systems, their background, status and prospects in relation to the development process. More specifically, it pursues the theme of appropriate management techniques for customary land in the light of recent and anticipated social and legislative change, with particular reference to the situation of the Ahi People’s peri-urban lands in the Morobe Province of Papua New Guinea (PNG). 1.2 Background Papua New Guinea is an independent nation of some 4.3 million people with a current annual population growth in the order of 2.3% (LUDP, cited in Ori 2000:6). It is a developing nation with approximately 15% of the population engaged in the market economy and the majority of people engaged in the subsistence economy. It comprises the eastern half of the second largest island in the world and extends to an approximate land area of 476,000 sq.
