Happy Birthday

3 Apua New Guinea!

Our Cover

This wide-angled view of smiling Papua New Guinean youngsters is PlM’s birthday greetings card to Papua New Guinea, - as a nation - one year old on September 16.

Like our September issue, the cover picture comes from the camera of Roderick Hulsbergen, whose book Torres Straits: The Last Paradise, has just been published. September 16 is also the birthday of PlM‘s founder, R W. Robertson.

He is now 91.
