the Pacific since the late 1980s when I had just begun my engagement in this sector. Chief James as I often called him has been a key figure, pioneer and a gentle giant in disability-related work in PNG, and of course here in the Pacific. I also take this
opportunity to thank James’ family for sharing this champion with the disability community in PNG and the Pacific! I’m very fortunate and blessed to have known and worked with this great person.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
