As the largest island in the Pacific Ocean, the second largest island in the world and the highest island in the world, Irian Island is equally divided between Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.
Irian Island has a very strange appearance, like an ancient Tyrannosaurus Rex hunting.
In fact, if you look at the world map, the islands in this area are really interesting. In this huge area of the southwest Pacific, there is the world's largest archipelago, the Indonesian Archipelago, and the world's second largest island, Irian.
From the map, Irian Island, which looks like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, seems to be eyeing the islands of the Indonesian archipelago as if those islands are the food of the Tyrannosaurus Rex. What's even funnier is that Kalimantan Island, about 1,400 kilometers west of Irian Island, looks like a fat Godzilla.
A Tyrannosaurus Rex and a Godzilla, with a series of islands such as Sulawesi, Maguru Islands, Buru Island, and Seram Island sandwiched between the two behemoths, as if these islands were the food that the two behemoths were preparing to fight for.
(ps: Interested readers can open Google Maps and take a look. The two large islands in this sea area really look like a pair of ancient monsters facing each other. It is very interesting.)
As the second largest island in the world, Irian Island is 2,400 kilometers long and 650 kilometers wide at its widest point. The central mountain range, which consists of the Snow Mountain Range in the west, which belongs to Indonesia, and the Male Mountain Range in the east, which belongs to Papua New Guinea, is like the backbone of this "Tyrannosaurus Rex", extending from the skull of this "Tyrannosaurus Rex" to the tip of its tail.
As the capital of Papua New Guinea, Port Moresby is the largest city and port in Papua New Guinea. This city is located at the tail of the "dinosaur".
To the east of Port Moresby is the Owen Stanley Mountains, which form the tail of the "Tyrannosaurus Rex". This mountain range is also the remnant of the Central Mountain Range or the Male Mountains. This tall mountain range guarding the east of Port Moresby can protect the port from hurricanes and rainstorms from the eastern ocean.
To the west of Port Moresby, it is surrounded by water on both sides, with the Gulf of Papua to the north and the magnificent and vast Coral Sea to the south.
In 1873, British Captain John Moresby led his fleet to arrive here for the first time. At 10 a.m. on February 20 of that year, Captain John Moresby announced that this area belonged to the British Empire. He also announced that the port would be named after his father, Sir Fairfax Moresby, who had served as admiral of the British Empire, and the bay where the port is located was named Fairfax Bay.
More than 140 years ago, it was a port inhabited by local indigenous people. Now it has developed into the largest city and port in Papua New Guinea, and has become the capital of Papua New Guinea after its independence, with a population of over 400,000.
However, although the city covers a small area, it is not prosperous. If Yang Jing thinks that the most shabby capital city he has ever seen is Nuuk, the capital of Greenland, then Port Moresby, which is many times larger than Nuuk, is not much better than Nuuk.
The headquarters of Rongbao Mining Port Moresby Branch is located in a community in the west of Port Moresby near Fairfax Bay. It is considered to be the best area in the whole Port Moresby and is also the location of the old town of Port Moresby.
The branch rented a two-story villa as an office location. The villa is located halfway up a hill. Less than 500 meters to the west is the azure Fairfax Bay. From the company's location, one can clearly see the densely packed yachts anchored in the harbor.
As the capital of Papua New Guinea, Port Moresby's manufacturing and processing industries are not well developed. It is mainly based on commerce and tourism. Therefore, although this city looks shabby, the consumption is not low. Twenty years ago, the consumption here was even comparable to that of Tokyo. It was the city with the highest inflation and consumption level in Papua New Guinea.
Of course, this high level of consumption is a false prosperity, mostly caused by foreign tourists. In recent years, as the domestic political situation in Papua New Guinea has gradually stabilized, Papua New Guinea's top leaders have also begun to work hard to develop the economy, so the inflation in Port Moresby has fallen back to an acceptable level.
When Yang Jing arrived at the branch office, it was almost dusk, but he didn't see Guo Xiang, which made him feel a little strange.
Wu Zepeng explained, "Xiang went to Yalib in the Southern Highlands Province for an inspection a few days ago, but when he heard that you were coming yesterday, he had already started his return trip from Yalib. But the traffic situation there is very bad, there is only one road leading to Mount Hagen in the middle, and the heavy rain some time ago washed away a section of the road, so Xiang told me this morning that he had just arrived in Mount Hagen. Mount Hagen has an airport, so he should be arriving soon by now."
The fastest guy in the world is not Bolt, but an old guy from China who lived nearly two thousand years ago. His name was Cao Cao.
Cao Cao Cao Cao Cao is coming. This old saying that has been passed down in China for nearly two thousand years is not a mess. As soon as Wu Zepeng finished explaining, the door of the villa was pushed open roughly, and Guo Xiang's voice came in immediately: "Jing Gege, are you here?"
"Haha" Yang Jing was so happy when he saw Guo Xiang rushing in. He laughed and gave this guy a bear hug.
"Well, you've lost a lot of weight, and your muscles are obviously more obvious. You must have been exercising a lot to lose weight during this period, right?" Yang Jing let go of Guo Xiang, patted the guy on the shoulder and said with a smile.
