We find various systems of kinship (patrilineal, matrilineal and mixed forms), of political centralisation (from 'acephalous' to 'state'), different artistic expressions, ecological habitats, agricultural and economic specialisation, etc. Both regions are also endowed with comparatively abundant historical sources (medieval Arab geographers, Portuguese navigators of the fifteenth century, European and Cape-Verdian traders, etc.). These afford us with a considerable time-depth of textual documentation. All of these features render the region an ideal location for social/cultural-anthropological studies, both synchronic and diachronic, as well as for historical studies. An even greater time-depth is attained by archaeology, for which the region also offers great prospects. Quite some research has already been carried out in and near the flood plains of the rivers

Papua New Guinea Papua New Guinea History and Government History: New Guinea has been inhabited by various peoples from throughout Asia for some 10,000 years. Its recorded history began with the visits of Portuguese explorers in the early 16th century, followed by Dutch traders. The Dutch East India Company took control of the western half of the island, which became a colonial possession attached to the Dutch East Indies in 1828. The territory was then split between the British and Germans in the 1880s until after World War I, when it was transferred in its entirety to the control of Australia, endorsed by a United Nations mandate. Most of it was occupied by the Japanese during World War II. After 1945, New Guinea reverted to Australian administration before the granting of independence in 1975. Michael Somare, previously Chief Minister, assumed the post of Prime Minister. Somare remained in power until 1980, when Sir Julius Chan’s conservative People’s Progress Party (PPP) came out of opposition to form a government. Since then, Papua New Guinea’s domestic politics have been dominated by the struggle between Chan, Somare and the third major political figure of recent times, Mekere Morauta, leader of the People’s Democratic Movement (PDM), which was formed from dissidents of both PPP and the country’s third main political party

Each people spoke one or more of hundreds of separate languages, with lifestyles and cultural traditions that differed according to the region in which they lived. Their complex social systems and highly developed traditions reflect a deep connection with the land and environment. Asian and Oceanic mariners and traders were in contact with Indigenous Australians for many centuries before the European expansion into the Eastern Hemisphere. Some formed substantial relationships with communities in northern Australia.

Vieira, speaking to reporters before heading for Bissau aboard a French military helicopter, said: ``The Abuja peace agreement is a victory for my people and I hope a definitive end to the conflict has now been achieved and will be honored.'' Mane, who is expected to head Tuesday for Guinea-Bissau where his forces are largely in control, remained silent. The two leaders returned with Gambian President Yahya Jammeh who had taken them late last week to the Nigerian capital Abuja where they signed the accord after intense efforts by regional heads of state.

The ABC also provided programs to Radio 9PA, the station set up by the Army to broadcast to Allied forces in the New Guinea campaign. Australian Army Captain Robin Wood (left) officer-in-charge of 9PA, with US Army Captain Edgar L. Tidwell also attached to the station, in 1944. Robin Wood later became ABC Federal Director of Programme Services. It would probably be safe to say that no station of its size ever had such tremendous resources upon which to draw for its programmes. The ABC, BBC, Australian Commercial Stations and the American Department of Information all made available transcriptions of their best programmes, and consequently the forces were extremely well supplied with entertainment.

From fiscal 1991 through fiscal 1999, the Fund implemented the project Inviting Media Personnel from the Pacific Island Region to Japan. More than 60 media personnel from Pacific island nations visited Japan through that project, which sought to promote understanding of Japan within the region. Thanks to the project's success, it was decided to follow up with the present five-year project. This year it was planned to send three reporters from Japan's Okinawa Prefecture to Papua New Guinea, but because of the high risk of contracting malaria, the destination was changed to Fiji. The reporters covered ecotourism and ruins and wrote feature stories on those topics. In addition, the editor in chief of a newspaper and a senior journalist for a radio network in Papua New Guinea, as well as the publisher of a newspaper in Fiji, were invited to Japan. They covered the planned inauguration of direct flights between Japan and Papua New Guinea in April 2002 and the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Station, as well as the remote island community of Miyakojima, Okinawa Prefecture. Their reports were published in a Papua New Guinea national newspaper and transmitted throughout the Pacific region through various media.

It is often very difficult, especially for Africans, to use the diverse and scattered sources of colonial times for historical purposes. The Institute's series Studien zur Kulturkunde and, more recently, Afrika-Archiv Beatrix Heintze Hand in hand with editing the sources, a careful critique of the sources must be carried out. Whereas the methodology of non-written sources of African history was subject to lively and fertile discussions, up to the beginning of the eighties written sources provoked no such discussions worth mentioning, nor did they get any systematic treatment. Moreover, the lack of data and "hard" facts often lead to rash and uncritical "script credibility". This research project (up to now Beatrix Heintze's main interest) addresses these themes.

The first European contact was by the Portuguese explorer Jorge de Meneses in 1526-27 who named it Ilhas dos Papuas (Island of the Fuzzy Hairs). The Spaniard Inigo Ortiz de Retes later called it New Guinea because he thought the people similar to those of Guinea in Africa. Further exploration followed, including landings by Bougainville, Cook, Stanley and John Moresby.

History of Papua New Guinea Site Links Home Search this Site History Posters Africa ... Privacy Policy Archeological evidence indicates that humans arrived on New Guinea at least 60,000 years ago, probably by sea from Southeast Asia during an Ice Age period when the sea was lower and distances between islands shorter. Although the first arrivals were hunters and gatherers, early evidence shows that people managed the forest environment to provide food. There also are indications of gardening having been practiced at the same time that agriculture was developing in Mesopotamia and Egypt. Early garden cropsmany of which are indigenousincluded sugarcane, Pacific bananas, yams, and taros, while sago and pandanus were two commonly exploited native forest crops. Today's staplessweet potatoes and pigsare later arrivals, but shellfish and fish have long been mainstays of coastal dwellers' diets. When Europeans first arrived, inhabitants of New Guinea and nearby islandswhile still relying on bone, wood, and stone toolshad a productive agricultural system. They traded along the coast, where products mainly were pottery, shell ornaments, and foodstuffs, and in the interior, where forest products were exchanged for shells and other sea products. The first Europeans to sight New Guinea were probably the Portuguese and Spanish navigators sailing in the South Pacific in the early part of the 16th century. In 1526-27, Don Jorge de Meneses accidentally came upon the principal island and is credited with naming it "Papua," a Malay word for the frizzled quality of Melanesian hair. The term "New Guinea" was applied to the island in 1545 by a Spaniard, Ynigo Ortis de Retez, because of a fancied resemblance between the islands' inhabitants and those found on the African Guinea coast. Although European navigators visited the islands and explored their coastlines for the next 170 years, little was known of the inhabitants until the late 19th century.

Regional Training Course History of the membership The continent's position as a crossroads between the Americas, Europe and Asia also lays it open to transnational crimes such as traffic in weapons, illicit drug trafficking, illegal immigration, traffic in stolen motor vehicles and fraud, which can only be stopped by international co-operation. Seeking and locating the criminals involved poses problems relating to information exchange, international identification and arrests with a view to extradition. This is why Interpol-in accordance with Article 2 (1) of its Constitution-ensures the closest possible co-operation between the criminal police authorities of all member countries, including those in Africa. Crime is not associated with a particular region and is certainly not a problem for Africa alone. Ever since it was established, the International Criminal Police Organization - Interpol has been seen by countries all over the world as an institution whose principles and objectives correspond to universal aspirations for human rights, public safety and the fight against ordinary law crime.
