Madang in 1968 still quiet? - My eldest SON Alex Jackway was born in Madang BH Nov 1969... and still quiet except for nightly rain downpours like clockwork. I was working for New Guinea Motors then.
When did they finalise the road from Lae? - I heard they found a whole new tribe of cannibals then, while they were building or surveying the road. I was with CDW Lae, but did repair jobs in Madang in 1967, staying at the CDW camp, main road into town from Airstrip. Also worked for CDW at port Moresby, Wewak, Goroka, Arona, Losuia, and Wau-Bulolo areas. Traveled in DC3's, F27's, SE Otter and also twin Eng, Caribous and Hercs also, while in the Army.
