Download or read book Papua New Guinea, Its Economic Situation and Prospects for Development written by World Bank and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 1978 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Papua New Guinea is a newly-independent country, richly endowed with good soils, abundant rainfall, considerable mineral resources, and with forestry and fisheries resources of good commercial potential. The government has shown an impressive ability to deal with the young country's financial, economic, and political problems, and an effective set of institutions for economic and financial management has been created. Development strategy must aim at growing internal and external financial viability and at using the growing resources of financial viability to finance substantive programs designed to increase productivity on a wide front. The strategy hopes to reflect the government's social and cultural values, including the need for increasing national production, which is expected to come partly from a small number of highly productive enclave projects and partly from much broader growth of output in agriculture and industry. Other concerns are income distribution and the quality of life. The strength of Australia's long-term aid commitment and the large role tax revenues from enclave projects play in the thinking of policy makers have prevented attention to new sources of tax revenue and efforts to reduce the cost of government, both of which will be required.
Book Synopsis Sustaining Development in Mineral Economies by : Richard Auty
Download or read book Sustaining Development in Mineral Economies written by Richard Auty and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-26 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is widely believed that natural mineral resources are desirable. However there is growing evidence that this may not always be the case. Indeed, it seems that natural assets can distort the economy to such a degree that the benefit actually becomes a curse. In Sustaining Development in Mineral Economies, Richard Auty highlights these drawbacks and the devastating effect they can have on developing economies. With reference to six ore-exporters (viz. Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Jamaica, Zambia and Papua New Guinea) he outlines how things can go badly wrong. He particularly stresses the need to avoid `Dutch Disease' whereby competitiveness is drained out of the agriculture and manufacturing sectors so that in the long term growth falters.

Book Synopsis Large-scale Mines and Local-level Politics by : Colin Filer
Download or read book Large-scale Mines and Local-level Politics written by Colin Filer and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the difference in their populations and political status, New Caledonia and Papua New Guinea have comparable levels of economic dependence on the extraction and export of mineral resources. For this reason, the costs and benefits of large-scale mining projects for indigenous communities has been a major political issue in both jurisdictions, and one that has come to be negotiated through multiple channels at different levels of political organisation. The ‘resource boom’ that took place in the early years of the current century has only served to intensify the political contests and conflicts that surround the distribution of social, economic and environmental costs and benefits between community members and other ‘stakeholders’ in the large-scale mining industry. However, the mutual isolation of Anglophone and Francophone scholars has formed a barrier to systematic comparison of the relationship between large-scale mines and local-level politics in Papua New Guinea and New Caledonia, despite their geographical proximity. This collection of essays represents an effort to overcome this barrier, but is also intended as a major contribution to the growth of academic and political debate about the social impact of the large-scale mining industry in Melanesia and beyond.

Book Synopsis Papua New Guinea: Critical Development Constraints by : Asian Development Bank
Download or read book Papua New Guinea: Critical Development Constraints written by Asian Development Bank and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2012-04-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Papua New Guinea's economic growth has outpaced the majority of economies in Southeast Asia and the Pacific since 2007. Its development challenges, however, remain daunting, and it lags behind other countries in the region in terms of per capita income and achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. This raises the question of how the country can make its economic growth high, sustained, inclusive, and broad-based to more effectively improve its population's welfare. This report identifies the critical constraints to these objectives and discusses policy options to help overcome such constraints.
