Forests Logging Background (Papua New Guinea : 2003)
A traditional canoe on the Aramia River, made from rosewood rainforest timbers. "I am worried that when the company goes into the bush we wont have any canoe trees in the future" says Kubiya Kawa of the Kewa village. The design on the side symbolises the clan, and only people from that clan can race in the canoe. This is the Gogodala tribe. The crocodile motive represents the canoe builders clan, and the eagle motive represents his wifes clan.
