Yesterday had a visit from a friend Greg, who recently returned from one of his regular business trips to Papua New Guinea. He brought me a most welcome gift package of two PNG coffee mugs featuring the names of 20 provinces of PNG and a collection of PNG newspapers all in a ‘Steamies’ shopping bag. Steamies is a large department store which as well as supplying townspeople in Port Moresby with their goods, ran a small shipping line supplying goods to coastal government stations around the coast of Papua when I first taught in PNG starting in 1962.
In the 10 years I taught in PNG, I taught in six of those provinces.
