Bound by history: Anzac Day reflections from Papua New Guinea
On 25 April 1915, Australian and New Zealand soldiers huddled together silently in their row boats as they approached the beaches and hills of Gallipoli. Although they were young and afraid, they prepared to battle with an unseen enemy to protect the rest of us. Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten. Today, 111 years later, the Anzac spirit remains as strong as ever. At dawn, Australians and New Zealanders across the world pause to honour those who have served and continue to serve in our defence forces during times of war, conflict, and humanitarian and peace operations.

Order, skill, and promise: Dr. Lawes’ first account of Keapara
In April 1876, a ship quietly navigated into Hood Bay, its crew guided by both caution and curiosity. On the eastern shore lay the village of Kerepuna, tucked safely behind a reef that seemed to guard it from the world beyond. The lagoon’s entrance was nearly invisible, almost as if it were keeping a secret. The crew first tried the reef, measuring the depths, twenty-five fathoms, yet no bottom. Moving westward, they finally discovered a narrow passage and carefully anchored in calm water, sheltered from all winds. What seemed like just another stop along the coast would become a defining encounter.

Is Park Chan-wook’s Cannes appointment a sign of respect for the director or Korean cinema overall?
When Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook was appointed as the President of the Jury for the feature films competition section of the Cannes Film Festival last month, some might have wondered why. Although Park has long been considered a Cannes favorite, even sometimes called “Cannes Park” for winning the Grand Prix in 2004 for “Oldboy” (2003), the Jury Prize for “Thirst” (2009) and Best Director for “Decision to Leave” (2022), the 62-year-old director has never nabbed the Palme d'Or, the festival's top prize, which his peer Bong Joon-ho achieved with “Parasite” (2019). Now, as the jury president, Park is to oversee the deliberation process to select the winners from the films in competition, including the festival’s top honor, the Palme d'Or, alongside eight other jury members.To access this post, you must purchase Web, Web – One-Day, Web – 14-Day, Web – One-Month, Web – Three-Month, Web – Six-Month, Web – Annual, Web & eBook, Web & eBook – One-Day, Web & eBook – 14-Day, Web & eBook – One-Month, Web & eBook – Three-Month, Web & eBook – Six-Month or Web & eBook – Annual.
