Between 1920 and 1960, urban populations in East Asia grew four times, in Latin America and Africa five times, and in Oceania two-and-a-half times (United Nations, 1968: 12). The majority of towns in modernising countries have been either founded by colonial powers or have come under their control or influence. Many are divided into two sectors which I have elsewhere called high-grade and low­ grade development sectors. The first sector consists of town centres and richer suburbs in which standards of planning, building and services are comparable to those foundin Western towns.1 The second sector is inhabited by the poorer members of the population and consists either of overcrowded tenements with­ in towns or areas of uncontrolled and congested settlements, inadequately provided with services, on their fringes. Poverty leads to malnutrition and disease. High crime rates, unstable family life and other forms of social disor­ ganisation emerge, although these characteristics are also found in Western towns. In spite of immense effort in terms of human thought and energy and of ex­ penditure of huge sums of money and masses of materials, social and physical conditions in these towns are getting worse. While a number of writers (e.g. McGee, 1967 : 155-70; Juppenlatz, 1970) have recognised various aspects which distinguish the two sectors, the administrative implications of the differences between them have received little attention. If solutions to urban problems are to be found, a new approach is needed and such an approach is proposed in this book. I argue that the problems which arise in Port Moresby are not mainly caused by lack of financial and other resources or by badly executed policies, although these play their part. They arise because administrative institutions 1. I use the term 'Western' as a convenient shorthand to referto the predominantly Anglo­ Saxon industrial culture of northern Europe, the United States and Australia. That it is not synonymous with European, readers of the People of the Sierra by Julian Pitt Rivers (1954) will appreciate. x Colonial Town to Melanesian City and policies have been adopted which reflect Western needs and goals, un­ related to the needs and aspirations of the Papua New Guinean population. Social problems arise when people suffer deprivation, injustice or other ills. As C. Wright Mills (1970 : 145) says : 'In our formulation of problems we must make clear the values that are really threatened in the troubles and issues involved, who accepts them as values, and by whom or by what they are threaten­ ed.' Problems may be identified in a number of ways. Many problems are partly culturally determined ; austere conditions welcomed by a Spartan, for example, would be abhorrent to a modern American or Australian. Those experiencing problems may articulate them, but their understanding of their problems and their feltneeds depends on their awareness of their total situation and of the options which are open to them. An observer from outside a society may judge problems in terms of his own values : a Westerner, forexample, may ipso fa cto condemn conditions he sees obtaining in a shanty settlement. He may, however, try to assess them in the light of the values of those involved and thereby come to a different conclusion. External assessments may be based on precise scientific evidence : medical research may establish beyond doubt that lack of hygiene in a canoe settlement plays a major part in the aetiology of helminthic diseases (intestinal parasites) which are prevalent among its in­ habitants.

  • Evaluation of House Rent Prices and Their Affordability in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea
    buildings Article Evaluation of House Rent Prices and Their Affordability in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea Eugene E. Ezebilo Property Development Program, National Research Institute, P.O. Box 5854, Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea; [email protected] or [email protected] Received: 9 September 2017; Accepted: 1 December 2017; Published: 4 December 2017 Abstract: Access to affordable housing has been a long-standing issue for households in most cities. This paper reports on a study of house rent prices in Port Moresby, factors influencing them, and affordability of the prices. Data was obtained from houses that were advertised for rent in Port Moresby for a period of 13 months and were analysed using the ordinary least squares (OLS) regression model. The results show that monthly house rent prices range from 2357 to 34,286 Papua New Guinea Kina (PGK), or 714 to 10,389 U.S. dollars (USD), and the median price was 7286 PGK (2208 USD). Houses located in the central business district had the highest median house rent price, whereas low-income areas had the lowest rent price. By dividing the median house rent price by gross household income, the housing affordability index was 3.4. House rent price was influenced by factors such as number of bedrooms and location. To make house rent prices more affordable for Port Moresby residents, it is necessary to supply more houses for rent relative to demand, especially in low-income areas. Relevant governmental agencies should put more effort toward unlocking more customarily-owned land for housing development and toward facilitating the private sector to construct more low-cost houses for rent, which are affordable for low to middle income households.
