Janetta Douglas, née Smith,〔(''The traditional pottery of Papua New Guinea'' ), Patricia May & Margaret Tuckson, University of Hawaii Press, 2000, ISBN 0-8248-2344-3, p.163〕 MBE is a Papua New Guinean charity worker. In the late 1960s, she was "a young teacher in Madang", where she "encouraged the women to continue to make pots, assisted with marketing to surrounding villages and to Australia", and helped stimulate a "tourist trade in pottery".〔May & Tuckson, op.cit., p.163〕 Douglas is the author of a book on ''Tourism in Papua New Guinea'' (Institute of Papua New Guinea Studies, Port Moresby, 1975). Dame Carol Kidu has described her as an "unsung hero", and said that "without people like Janetta Douglas, the disability data for Moresby South would not be being collected".〔(Speech by Dame Carol Kidu ), French Embassy to Papua New Guinea〕 In June 2009, she was made a Memder of the Order of the British Empire by the Queen of Papua New Guinea, Elizabeth II, for "service to commerce and charities, especially through helping people living with disabilities".〔("Queen's birthday honours list: Commonwealth" ), ''The Guardian'', June 13, 2009〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Janetta Douglas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
