Wildlife management areas in Madang lagoon, Papua New Guinea: creating or claiming?

In October 2005, my Google protected areas alert showed several links to the creation of new protected areas in Papua New Guinea (PNG). As I clicked on the links, I was already wondering if this issue could be my master's research topic in Summer 2006. I had no idea that the timing of this press release would be the focus of my efforts to understand who was actually achieving conservation in PNG.
