'Infrastracture development in Oceania'
Project formulation cooperation/ Management of Scope of Works (2019～2022): The Oceania Region, which is composed of thousands of islands in Polynesia, Micronesia, and Melanesia, has experienced continuous growth in industries such as agrifishery, mining, and tourism. Their vast exclusive economic zone (EEZ) provides a variety of seafood, minerals, and other energy resources, fostering mutually beneficial relationships between the Oceania islands and Asian countries.
In collaboration with JICA, we dispatched our staff to Papua New Guinea as experts in economic infrastructure project management. They worked closely with the government and the public of Papua New Guinea on projects related to electronic networks, water supply and treatment, airports, seaports, natural disaster management, gender development, and more.

What sort of country is Papua New Guinea? - Country full of natural blessings and mystries.
Papua New Guinea is located in the eastern part of the New Guinea island, adjacent to Indonesia. The country is home to around 800 tribes, each with its own languages, traditions, and distinct diversity across different regions. Their coffee, cocoa, and vanilla are highly recognized as quality agricultural products. The country's deep green mountains attract numerous climbers and trekkers, while divers are mesmerized by the cobalt blue oceans, where dolphins thrive among vibrant coral reefs.
パプアニューギニアはインドネシアと陸続きのニューギニア島東部の国です。部族数は800を超え言語や伝統風習にも多様性・地域性が色濃いのが特徴です。コーヒーやココアやバニラは世界的に良品として有名な農産物です。緑豊かな山々はトレッキング・クライマーを惹きつけ, サンゴ礁が広がりイルカが子育てをする美しい海は世界のダイバーを魅了しています。
