Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 246 pp., illustrations, bibliography, index. "We fought but according to the bulk of the taubadas, we remained nameless; we were just the native scout or the Papuan guide to them. Still, to the gallant few who addressed us by name, I owe them my undying gratitude for treat…ing us as mates. But the fact remains without the help of all those nameless warriors and carriers who braved the sickness, rain, mud, hunger, despair and enemy of this campaign, all would surely have been lost" --Ben Moide, December, 2010 Nameless warriors describes the life of one of Papua New Guinea's last remaining World War II veterans. He ran away from home to join the Papuan Infantry Battalio at the age of 16 in 1940. In July 1942, he was part of the PIB platoon that ambushed the Japanese at Awala. The tabuada's order to fire on the advancing enemy, and the ensuing action, propelled these mostly nameless warriors straight into the annals of PNG war history. From Awala, to Kokoda and Deniki to the Ope and Waria Rivers and the Scarlet Beach landings, Ben Moide beats a busy track with his comrades before returning home in 1944 to act as PIB instructor and final demob in 1945. Life after the war proved difficult as the PIB veterans struggled to find their feet in a society that had passed them by. But Ben perseveres and starts a family and legacy that saw him drive Administrator Murray for a while before he became Dr. Gunther's driver during his regular drives to the Waigani swamp to spy out land for a learning institute. Ben was a member of the Hanuabada Rugby League buildup in the 1950s; was part of the mighty Magani outfit in 1961-62, and was employed with San Migule and SP before retiring in 1991.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 542 p. Includes: illustrations, bibliography. This book brings to focus the story of the Lahui Ako family from the Guinina-Laurina clan of the village of Hanuabada, situated on the shores of the Fairfax Harbour. It was in Hanuabada where the Londom Missionary Society (LMS) set up base paving the… way for Christianity and modernization in the region. Form the time fo the arrival of the taubadas on the shores of Hanuabada and their eventual building of the principal township of Port Moresby, the missionaries, right across World War II and the years before independence, the PNGDF, sports, and finally to the lands across its shores and the diplomatic posts manned by our very own home-grown diplomats, the reader is invited right into the inner sanctum of the minds of the men of this family, men, who by the grace of the most High God, were fortunate enough to be part of this journey, and inadvertently, the history of Papua New Guinea itself. Profusely illustrated with photographs, the book brings to life the story of the twin birht of a nation as seen through the eye sof a Motuan family-their trials, tribulations, and obstacles leading to the births, and the post-birth years up to the present-where the family's adventure through a quagmire of tradition, custom, culture, military life, civil bureaucracy, Christianity, and their oriental experience is brought to life. 0.0.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Lahui Ako, a former diplomat, and PNG APEC Senior Official, recounts the complex, difficult, and sometimes treacherous path he faced in the world of multilateral diplomacy, both by himself, and his country, when it committed to host and…chair APEC in 2018. He tells of the political barriers, the diplomatic innuendos, the financial hurdles, and the organizational complexity he encountered, from the planning phases in 2012, right up to being in the cross-fire of the nationalistic Trump officials, and China's aggressive 'wolf warrior' diplomats where hard choices had to be made in November, 2018. Ultimately, there wont be a consensus APEC 2018 Leaders' Declaration, but Lahui and his team will acquit themselves well; simply, because, their God knows best.
