Businesses impacted by NBN’s untimely outage By MATT NICHOLLS

A NUMBER of Weipa businesses were thrown into chaos on Friday when internet services went down in the community. EFTPOS sales at a number of stores, including Woolworths, were unavailable, leading to long queues and frustrated customers.

Businesses such as LiveLife Pharmacy and Tackleworld Weipa were also impacted. A Telstra spokesperson said the issue was not with them, but with NBN Co. Telstra told a Weipa Town Authority figurehead that it was a planned outage. NBN Co did not confirm or deny this when questioned by

Cape York Weekly on Monday. “There is currently an issue affecting a backhaul fibre link in Weipa,” an NBN spokesperson said. “We deployed our technicians over the weekend to conduct emergency work to resolve the issue and alerted service providers. “As the repairs were taking

place some people’s services may have been impacted. All services have been restored. “There are some additional rectification works being completed. “If these works impact people in Weipa we will again communicate with service providers so they can inform the community.”

Homelands an inspiration for artist THE Cape York homelands of artist Lisa Michl Ko-manggén have provided a rich source of inspiration and storytelling conveyed on canvas in an ambitious body of new work for next month’s Cairns Indigenous Art Fair. In the past year Lisa has dedicated many studio hours to complete eight acrylic on canvas master works that will be featured as part of CIAF 2021

Ms Michl Ko-Manggén is extremely proud of her collection, entitled Early Days; Nowadays, that she says is a culmination of 22 years of painting and life as an artist. “My artworks are inspired by my Kokoberrin ancestry, our lifestyle and culture,” she said. “From a very young age, these stories were handed down to me, while spend-

ing time on country with my senior Elders. For me, art is creative expression, and it gives me the opportunity to share and document our Kokoberrin clan groups stories for future generations.” The Cairns Indigenous Art Fair will be available to view at Cairns Convention Centre from August 19 to 22. For more information, go to the CIAF website www.ciaf.com.au

Entsch is blown away by Cape York communities By MATT NICHOLLS MEMBER for Leichhardt Warren Entsch said he was blown away by the progress of a number of Cape York communities during last week’s trip across the Peninsula. The MP started in Pormpuraaw and visited Kowanyama, Aurukun, Weipa, Mapoon, Lockhart River and the NPA. He said he was particularly impressed with the work being done by the Lockhart River and Mapoon councils. “Both of those councils should be commended for their work in developing business on the ground,” he said. “I was very, very encouraged to see what they are doing.” Mr Entsch said he was given a tour of the new sports centre in Lockhart River, which is set to be re-opened as a tavern. “It looks fantastic and will be a great community asset,” he said. “These guys are really kicking goals and I want to congratulate (mayor) Wayne Butcher and

(council CEO) David Clarke for the work they are putting in. “And they are doing it with pure council initiative; they aren’t sitting back looking for funding dollars.” He said the creation of a new dance festival grounds near the waterfront at Lockhart River was something to keep an eye on, too. What impressed the MP most in his visits to the communities was the number of local employees on the ground. “Everywhere you went, whether it was someone on a machine, mowing, trenching or building new cabins, they were all locals,” he said. “That’s what the Cape has needed for a long time.” In Mapoon, Mr Entsch said he was impressed with the number of tourism initiatives that were being implemented by the small council, led by mayor Aileen Addo. “They’ve got some pretty impressive plans and vision. The new cultural centre is going to be fantastic,” he said.

NORMALISATION NEWS WHILE in Weipa, where he based himself for most of the week, Mr Entsch said he had a positive sit down with Rio Tinto to discuss normalisation. “They reaffirmed to me the fact they are totally committed to normalisation,” he said. “It was the best meeting I have had with Rio in 25 years in this job. “We had all their managers sitting in the room and discussed all the different elements – that is the first time that has ever occurred and I want to thank Michelle (Elvy) for doing that. “I wasn’t expecting it and it was a nice surprise.” Making a commitment to normalising Weipa and actually doing it are two different things, though, something the MP was happy to acknowledge. “They have already got a committee established and they admitted that they have to start to accelerate that process,” he said. “There’s one problem and that’s with the committee.

“There’s Rio Tinto, the state government and the WCCCA. I told them there was one important element missing and that’s the Weipa Town Authority. “All the ratepayers need to be heard because they’ve already got a lot invested in the community,” he said. “The town office needs to be a part of the solution.” Mr Entsch said Rio Tinto also needed to look at expanding the types of land on offer in Weipa to include residential acreage, which would diversify the town’s population. He said the company should also fast-track plans for another passage to Mapoon. “We know that Rio Tinto’s mining use for the Mission River bridge is not going to be for that much longer, so they should be preparing for a different access road for Mapoon,” he said. “There’s no way TMR will take on that bridge so Rio Tinto need to be looking at a viable realignment.”  Jardine River bridge update in Strait Talkin’.

Cape residents urged to make a vaccine booking THE COVID-19 vaccination rollout arrives in Cape York next week, with the NPA first in line for the Peninsula. Teams will then go to Coen, Kowanyama, Lockhart River, Aurukun, Pormpuraaw and Weipa, followed by Napranum and Mapoon. “We are encouraging people to book in early for the Weipa public clinic at the Storm Surge Shelter,” said Bev Hamerton the CEO of the Torres and Cape Hospital and Health Service. “We are also encouraging

people to book in for the clinics at Coen, Lockhart River, Kowanyama, Napranum and Pormpuraaw. “You can call our booking number on (07) 3497 3442 to make an appointment.” Ms Hamerton said everyone required two doses of COVID-19 vaccine to be maximally protected. “For Pfizer, these doses need to be at least 21 days apart. “Health authorities also have advised that pregnant women can receive the Pfizer vaccine.”

AUSTRALIAN music icon Normie Rowe will perform at Bramwell Station next week. Ken Godfrey, the manager of Bramwell Tourist Park, said Rowe would perform from 7pm each night from August 4 to August 10. The 1960s star is no stranger to Cape York, having previously performed at Bramwell. “He had a couple of gigs in NSW that were cancelled so instead of sitting around on the Gold Coast he’s going to come up here,” said Godfrey.

Indigenous arts fund A NEW four-year fund for emerging arts organisations will strengthen the state government’s investment in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander performing artists and companies in Queensland. Minister for the Arts Leeanne Enoch said the First Nations Pathways Fund would support emerging performing arts organisations that create and present new work. “As home to the world’s oldest continuous living cultures, we have a unique opportunity to support the growth of both Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations and culture,” she said. The fund closes in September with applications assessed and announced in November 2021. For more information, go to: www.arts. qld.gov.au/aq-funding

Plastic bag ban kicks in

Donated preservers will increase safety FOUR donated life preservers will greatly improve safety at Weipa’s new boat ramp pontoon. Smit Lamnalco contract manager Grant Jamieson was checking out the new facility and spotted just one donut-shaped preserver, so decided to roll up his sleeves and do something about it. “It’s a big pontoon and if someone fell in at one end, by the time you got to the preserv-

er, untied it and went back to throw it at the person, the current would have taken them,” he said. “We were able to repatriate four out of the fleet and give them a good home. I hope they never have to be used.” Mr Jamieson said the existing one was kept from the old pontoon and was originally put there after a meeting between the local port advisory group.

WITH just over a month to go, businesses across the state are getting ready for Queensland’s ban of single-use plastics. Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon said the state government was teaming up with Australia’s peak retail body the National Retail Association, as well as the Boomerang Alliance, for a travelling roadshow to make sure businesses and community groups were ready for the shift to more sustainable products. “Half of all plastic produced is designed to be used once, ending up in landfill and harming our environment,” she said. “Banning single-use plastics adds to our record $1.4 billion investment to protect the environment and create jobs as part of our COVID-19 economic recovery, as well as the Containers for Change Program. “We’ve already seen the enormous benefits of the lightweight single-use plastic shopping bag ban, with surveys showing a 70 per cent reduction in all plastic bag litter since the bag ban began.”

With iconic spots like Fruit Bat Falls, why would you want to leave Cape York?

Tourists: We’ll stay in the Cape thanks CAPE York’s tourism operators have been hit by a number of cancellations due to southern lockdowns, but have largely been able to fill the void with travellers already on the road. Bramwell Tourist Park’s Ken Godfrey said he was surprised with the amount of people still in the Cape. “A lot of them are in Queensland and not going home,” he told Cape York Weekly. “They were in the Cape and staying longer, or they were over at Karumba and changed their plans to come here, rather than head back to NSW or Victoria.” Wife Gail said it had been Bramwell’s busiest year. “Most of the tourism in the north has been run off their feet,” she said.

“The supplies; we can’t keep up. We tripled our order on our trucks that come up weekly with our food and our alcohol. “There are a lot of families on the road, a lot of young couples.” Sally Eales, tourism manager at Cook Shire Council, said Cooktown was up 50 per cent on its normal tourist numbers of 20,000 to 30,000 a year, with Victorians (pre-lockdown) making up a large portion. “They’re also staying a lot longer than they normally would, two-three weeks becomes four or five weeks. With the everchanging COVID situation people want to stay in Queensland as long as they can. “June, July and August are generally our busiest three months – (this year) it will extend right up until Christmas.”

Why we must take action What’s on Cape York’s feral pigs On? FERAL pigs are widely known for causing environmental damage to pristine areas in places like Cape York, but new research has revealed another reason why they need to be culled. Feral pigs are a known threat to Australia’s $65 billion agricultural industry, destroying crops, spreading disease and preying on livestock. Now new research from the University of Queensland reveals the environmental threat from feral pigs is greater than previously thought. By uprooting carbon trapped in soil, the research estimates that they’re emitting the equivalent of more than a million cars globally each year. “Undoubtedly, when you disturb soil, there’s going to be emission, but we didn’t realise that it would be at that magnitude – 1.1 million,” lead author Dr Christopher O’Bryan said. He says it’s a conservative estimate and emissions could be three or four times higher. The international team led by UQ used predictive population models with advanced mapping techniques to pinpoint the climate damage from feral pigs across five continents. They found Australia and New Zealand produced the bulk of global emissions because the country has millions of pigs. “We’re talking about a decent proportion – enough to catch your attention,” he said. Dr O’Bryan said pigs in their native environment may damage soil, but they filled an ecological niche in the system. He said soil contained almost three times as much carbon than in the atmosphere, so even a small fraction of carbon emitted from soil had the potential to accelerate climate change. The research, published in Global Change Biology, warned of ramifications for curbing the effects of climate change into the future.

AUGUST

Research from the University of Queensland has revealed feral pigs are leaving a massive carbon footprint.

Pristine Cape York lagoons are at threat from growing feral pig numbers.

Feral pigs not only threaten species that are already in decline due to human pressure, but they have an impact on agriculture, cultural heritage and spread disease – like foot and mouth. “It’s been estimated if (foot and mouth) disease were to spread through the wild pig population in Australia, this would be well over $50 billion in losses due to agriculture just in livestock,” Dr O’Bryan said. Controlling them is challenging, however, because feral pigs are prolific breeders, producing two litters of four to 10 piglets a year in good conditions. “There’s not a one-off silver bullet solution,” he said.

The federal Department of Agriculture has funded a National Feral Pig Action Plan, which it anticipates to deliver in September. It’s an initiative between state, federal and local governments, national resource management, private landholders and industry groups. “They’ve done a good job at estimating the current risk and the potential strategies moving forward,” Dr O’Bryan said. “And they estimate we need to get to 70 per cent reduction of population growth to prevent any sort of population recovery of pigs.” Matthew McCamley operates

a helicopter-chartering business in Rockhampton and has been taking aerial shooters out for years. He sees the National Feral Pig Action plan as a step in the right direction. “Is it enough? It all depends on whether there’s enough culling and it will vary from season to season,” Mr McCamley said. “There’s one area that we’ve been doing some government work for over 10 years, and instead of getting thousands of pigs, we’re back to a couple of hundred in those areas now.” Aerial control, however, is expensive and the cost of management is left to landholders. “It would be good to get some sort of funding to help us down the track, but at the moment we do it because it costs us a lot in damage,” central Queensland farmer Mark Dunne said. Mr Dunne said the research on pigs’ carbon emissions reinforced the urgent need to bring numbers under control. “I reckon that will help us in trying to get rid of them in the future,” he said. “Anything that we can do to help get rid of the pigs is a good thing.” Story by Inga Stünzner, ABC Capricornia

Weipa Running Festival

Pictures: NEIL HUMMERSTON

Runners harness Olympic spirit PARTICIPATION took priority over podiums, but the spirit of the Olympics burnt brightly at Weipa on Sunday morning. In hazy conditions, the amateur athletes took to various tracks in a bid to push their bodies to the limit, set a personal best time and be a part of the town’s fastest growing event. “The enthusiasm of the runners and the spectators was fantastic once again,” said Weipa Running Festival director Rose Robins. “The new showgrounds facility at Andoom Oval is fantastic and really added to the atmosphere.” Adrian Royce was the first home in the marathon, stopping the clock in just under three hours (02:56:22).

Tash Sankey-Laidlaw was the first woman to complete the 42.2km distance, clocking in at 04:59:58. Paul Girardi and Tyler Clements were the respective winners of the half-marathons. “We had 166 race day runners and more than 120 virtual race runners, of which we are still processing the results,” Ms Robins said. “To have around 300 people take part in the Weipa Running Festival was a massive success for us. “The main aim for the event was to grow participation and interest in the sport, which we are doing each year.” The Weipa Running Festival will take place again in 2022.

ARIARNE Titmus has produced one of the great moments in Australian Olympic history, beating the legendary American Katie Ledecky in the 400m freestyle final. The two rivals have been waiting for years for a chance to race at the Olympics, but it was the Australian who reigned supreme with a winning time of 3:56.69. Ledecky, the five-time Olympic gold medalist, looked to be controlling the race from first place from its early stages, but Titmus timed her run to perfection. She surged ahead in the last 100m of the race, taking the lead and never looking back to record the win of her career. “I can’t believe it. I’m trying to contain my emotions,” Titmus told Channel Seven. “This past year I don’t know whether it’s gone fast or slow, but to get here was a relief. To come here and do the job, I’m over the moon.”

Ailsa Irene Hooker Late of Wujal Wujal. Passed away peacefully on Tuesday 20th July 2021 at Mossman Hospital aged 68 years. Family and friends are warmly invited to attend a Funeral Service to be held at The Lutheran Church, Wujal Wujal on Thursday, August 7, 2021 commencing at 1.30pm. At the conclusion of the service the cortege will proceed to Wujal Wujal cemetery for the interment.

THE Olyroos battled hard against a highly fancied Spanish outfit, but ultimately fell short thanks to a late Mikel Oyarzabal goal. The Real Sociedad star scored with a glancing header in the 81st minute to break Australian hearts, after Spain had enjoyed long periods of dominance through the match. The Spanish side is full of players who recently turned out for the full national team at Euro 2020, and is among the favourites for the gold medal, making it even more impressive that the Olyroos managed to keep them at bay for so long.

Barty bundled out AUSTRALIA’S world number one Ash Barty is out of the Olympics women’s singles after being dumped in straight sets by Spain’s Sara Sorribes Tormo, 6-4, 6-3. Barty looked out of sorts compared to the player who won on the grass courts of Wimbledon earlier this month. Sorribes Tormo controlled the baseline and moved the Australian around the court, winning points by putting Barty out of position.

Chaos at triathlon THE men’s Olympic triathlon got off to a chaotic start on Monday, with a rare false start that impacted the field. Only half of the 56 men lined up on the pontoon in the Odaiba Bay were able to dive into the water after the start gun fired, as an associated boat blocked the middle of the swimming channel.

SPORT IN BRIEF Greedy Grant’s sweep GRANT Crossley was not in a sharing mood on Sunday morning. At the Dawn Busters golf, he picked up every prize, collecting gongs for the longest drive and nearest to pin on his way to beating a field of 15. Byron Godfrey was runner-up, while Pat Heffernan finished at the tail of the field. Dawn Busters is a social game of golf, played every Sunday morning. Players usually tee off between 6am and 6.45am. All are welcome.

Viv claims Wackers HALF a stroke on handicap was all that Viv Chan needed to beat Mick Foy at last week’s Wednesday Wackers. Chan had a nett 35.5 after hitting 45 off the stick, while Foy had one less stroke but ended up with a nett 36 to be runner-up. Vicki Molloy claimed the Bradman’s, while Chan was nearest to pin on the 7th. No one in the field of 14 hit the green on the 9th – disappointing.

Weipa and Napranum netballers came up against the Cairns Tigers in an impromptu game on Saturday after their carnival was cancelled.

Weipa girls find a way to play despite cancellation

The netballers with smiling faces at Yarrabah on Friday.

A GROUP of Indigenous netballers from Weipa and Napranum landed in Cairns with no tournament to play in after the First Nations Sharon Finnan Cup Carnival was cancelled at the eleventh hour, but that didn’t stop them from finding some pick-up games. The troupe, led by Rochelle Te Moananui, had already organised to play in Yarrabah on Friday, but had to find alternative contests. Some generous hospitality from

the Cairns Tigers gave the girls some much-needed competition on Saturday, while the squad also took on Cairns State High School on Monday morning. “It was disappointing the carnival was cancelled but we were so grateful to make the trip and get in some games,” Te Moananui said. “We had great support from Weipa Social Netball Club and our sponsors Embley and Weipa Bowls Club.”

Blake shines in bout WEIPA junior boxer Blake Goodwin showed plenty of steel in his first official fight at Babinda on Saturday. The Cape York Boxing Academy tyro was up against a more experienced fighter who had more height and more reach. However, Goodwin was tough and made his opponent work hard for the win. Trainer Scott Wallace said he was proud of the teen’s performance and believed he would be better for the experience. “He’s going to Townsville in a couple of weeks and he should be a winning chance,” the coach said. “It was a tough first fight against a kid who had a lot more reach than him.”

Friendships were made off the court when the Weipa netball squad travelled to play matches against Yarrabah last Friday.

Proud Patty shines

Torres Strait Islander Patty Mills leads the Australian Olympic team into Japan’s National Stadium at the Opening Ceremony on Friday night. Mills was draped with jewellery to represent his Aboriginal and Torres Strait heritage. Patty then led the Boomers to a 84-67 victory against Nigeria on Sunday night.

Dreams of Gold: Why Patty Mills PATRICK MILLS sunk his first basket on Thursday Island, but his journey to international stardom has rarely been in the Torres Strait. Over the next two weeks, he will attempt to lead the Boomers to a historic medal at the Tokyo Olympics.

USTRALIA has never won a gold medal on the basketball court. In fact, the men’s team hasn’t won any kind of Olympics medal. Patty Mills hopes that will change on August 7 as he attempts to lead the Boomers to the podium at the Tokyo Games. The 32-year-old is at his fourth Olympics and hopes that the team can go all the way to win gold in what is a wide-open tournament. The Americans, who hadn’t lost at an Olympics since 2004, were pipped by France in their opening match on Sunday night. They were also rolled by both Nigeria and Australia in warm-up matches. The Boomers, still reeling from a one-point loss to Spain in the 2016 Olympics bronze medal match, have assembled their best squad in history and are determined to return with a souvenir.

Mills led Australia to victory in an error-riddled opening match on Sunday night, scoring 25 points and nailing five three-pointers in a 17-point win over Nigeria. “(We) obviously didn’t play as well as we would have liked,” Mills said post-game. “What we’re trying to do here is team effort and everyone playing their part, and that’s what we did

today. We talk about staying in the trenches together. “That’s what this game was all about. This is what this whole tournament is going to be about.” Next up, Australia will face Italy on Wednesday night. On the basketball court, Mills has virtually done it all, having won an NBA championship with the San Antonio Spurs and estab-

lished himself as a leader of the Texas franchise. The only thing that’s left to tick off is an Olympics medal. Mills has done his bit. At his first Games, in Beijing 2008, he led the Boomers’ scoring. At his second, in London 2012, he led the tournament in points per game, highlighted by a threepointer on the buzzer to defeat

Russia for a place in the quarterfinals. At his most recent Olympics, in Rio 2016, the veteran notched 30 points in the bronze medal match against Spain. Not bad for a kid who grew up as a bit of an outsider. Patty was raised in Canberra and was taught at a young age to be proud of his Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage. “My parents played a little basketball growing up, and so did my uncles and aunties,” Mills said. “But they went to Canberra and being in a government place, there wasn’t a lot of black people at all. “So when they came for work, they started a basketball club only for black people (The Shadows) so they could be in an environment where they could feel comfortable with other people like them. “It kind of grew. I was born into this basketball club. They were on a team with people like them, which was different than going to work with all these other white people. “My first game I had no clue what was going on, but I was happy to be with other people who were like me; the same colour.

can lead the Boomers to victory “It was unbelievable. I played with that club all the way until college.” When Mills was a toddler, he used to shoot at a hoop outside his grandfather’s home on Thursday Island. His parents met while they were working in the Australian capital of Canberra in Indigenous affairs for the federal government. Father Benny is from Mer and Dauar Islands. His grandfather is from Naghir Island. His mum Yvonne grew up in country South Australia. Her mother’s family is from the Koonibba Mission, while her mother’s father was Kokatha and her mother’s mother was Mirning. After high school, Patty went off to America to attend college on a basketball scholarship. In 2009, he was drafted to the Portland Trail Blazers with pick 55 in the NBA Draft. He would complete two seasons in Oregon before finding his way back to Australia to play in the NBL as a result of a strike between the NBA players and the league. His class was clear in just the handful of weeks he spent on the court for the Melbourne Tigers and

Mills was eventually picked up by Chinese franchise Xinjiang Flying Tigers on a big-money deal. But when the NBA lockout ended, the point guard returned to the United States, signing a deal with San Antonio. There were flashes of brilliance for the Spurs, but Mills was largely known for his antics on the bench as he mastered the art of towel waving in support of his teammates. “He was a little fat ass,” legendary Spurs coach Gregg Popovich once said of Mills when he arrived in San Antonio. “He had too much junk in the trunk. His decision making wasn’t great, and he wasn’t in great shape. “He changed his entire body. He came back svelte and cut and understood you have to make better decisions, point-guard type decisions. “He did all those things better and he earned it. He’s been real important to us, obviously.” After winning the NBA championship with Mareeba product Aron Baynes in 2014, Mills has become one of the most reliable guards in the NBA. “Patty has become the spiritual

leader of our team. He is the greatest teammate and he is always positive,” Popovich said. It will be that leadership that drives Australia in these Olympic Games, to be played in front of no fans in the stadium. “It is going to be tough. It is going to be different,” Mills said prior to the first game. “It is something athletes aren’t completely used to but at the end of the day it’s just another hurdle, just another bump in the road, an adversity that athletes usually deal with on almost a daily basis. “Professionals at this level understand that and are able to quickly flick into a mindset of, ‘OK, I acknowledge this adversity, how do I get through it, or around it or over it?’ “I think a lot of that kicks in as well when you have the Australian spirit behind you, and I know that’s a clichéd thing to say, but it’s something I definitely use very strongly, especially at this level, in this environment. “At the end of the day, this is the Olympic Games. It is the largest sporting event in the world. It’s a big stage no matter if there’s fans there or not.”

Don’t believe fake news when it comes to vaccine HEALTH authorities are urging residents of the Torres Strait, Northern Peninsula Area and Cape York to rely only on trusted sources for accurate information about vaccination. Torres and Cape Hospital and Health Service chief executive Beverley Hamerton said misinformation and rumours about vaccination abounded on social media channels. “As one example, we are seeing some social media posts in the Torres Strait claiming that vaccination turns people into human magnets,’’ she said. “Of course, this is not the case, but some people read this misinformation and are worried. “Let’s be clear, the only superpower that vaccination gives you is to protect you, your family and your community against COVID-19. “When it comes to your health, it’s important that you get your information from the sources you can trust. “Don’t rely on the wild, false and misleading claims that circulate on social media. “If you’ve heard something about vaccination that concerns you, please talk to your doctor, visit your local primary healthcare centre, or talk to our vaccination teams when we’re in your community. “This is especially important in view of the case of a Mareeba resident who had been in Melbourne and who has tested positive to COVID-19. “This case should bring home to everyone in the Torres Strait, NPA and Cape York how easy it is for COVID-19 to enter a community. “We have been lucky so far

that we have had no local cases of COVID-19. “But we cannot rely on luck to continue protecting us. “Vaccination is the best and only way to protect our communities. While no vaccine is 100 per cent effective, current evidence shows that people who have received a COVID-19 vaccine have a much lower chance of developing more serious symptoms from the virus, compared to those who did not get the vaccine. “So please, do the right thing for yourself, for your family and for your community and get vaccinated when our immunisation teams come to your community.” VACCINE RATES RISING TORRES and Cape Hospital and Health Service delivered 463 vaccinations last week at Badu and Mer islands. All were mostly second doses of Pfizer. So far, nearly 67 per cent of the eligible population of the Torres

The Badu Island vaccination team had positive results last week.

Strait islands has received one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, whether Pfizer or AstraZeneca, and about 41 per cent of the eligible population is now fully vaccinated with two doses of vaccine. On Thursday Island alone, about 52.5 per cent of the eligible population is now fully vaccinated with two doses of a COVID–19 vaccine, and about 68.5 per cent have received one dose. “This week, we will deliver the

second dose of Pfizer to residents of Warraber and Poruma islands, the St Paul’s and Kubin communities on Moa Island,” Ms Hamerton said. “The following week we will be back on Ugar (Stephen) for second dose Pfizer, then we are travelling to various outer islands to give second dose Pfizer for those that had their first dose, and from 5-6 August we will be on Mabiuag for the first dose of Pfizer.”

NORTHERN Peninsula Area residents can catch a free bus service to get their COVID-19 vaccination. The Torres and Cape Hospital and Health Service vaccination team will be in the NPA next week, with jabs available at the clinics at Bamaga, Injinoo, New Mapoon, Seisia and Umagico. The Umagico and Seisia clinics will open first, on Monday and Tuesday, before Injinoo and New Mapoon from Wednesday to Friday. From Saturday, August 7, the Bamaga clinic will open and will run from August 9 to 13. The vaccination team will return at the end of August for second doses. Two doses are required to be maximally protected. For Pfizer, these doses need to be a minimum of 21 days apart and you also need to leave a oneweek gap between having the COVAX and any other vaccine, including the seasonal flu jab. Pregnant women are safe to receive the Pfizer vaccine.

Council receptive to bridge: Entsch By MATT NICHOLLS

MEMBER for Leichhardt Warren Entsch says that Traditional Owners in the NPA will need to support a push to build a bridge over the Jardine River in order for the project to progress. The MP was in Bamaga last week and met with NPARC mayor Patricia Yusia and chief executive Susan Law to discuss issues in the community and said the issue of the bridge was raised. “They expressed an interest ... their view of building a bridge has changed somewhat,” Mr Entsch said. “There is some level of conflict within the PBC (Prescribed Body Corporation), who sound like they are opposed to building a bridge and keeping the ferry.”

The PBC for the Native Title area around the Jardine River is the Ipima Ikaya Aboriginal Corporation. Mr Entsch said he was happy to meet with the directors and potentially organise a representative from the state’s Department of Transport and Main Roads to be in the room. “I made it very clear to council that I’m prepared to work with them on it,” he said. “There is $10 million in federal money that has been sitting there for seven years and if there’s no bridge we’ll need to re-direct it to another project. “It also needs to be said that there is no point sealing any more of the Bamaga Road because that will just mean more traffic heading north, which will lead to longer wait times at the ferry. “A bridge is the future for the NPA.”

Takai feels at home on T.I. VICTORIA Takai had always wanted to join the Australian Army, so at 18 years old when she was offered a management role at a food retail company in Cairns, she knew she was at a crossroads for a career decision. That was six years ago, and the now 24-year old has since joined one of the Army’s advanced information and communication systems team – the Signallers. As part of her role as a Communication Systems Operator, Corporal Takai manages cuttingedge technology such as satellite terminals and advanced security equipment to provide military communications across a range of different networks around the world. She says that no day in signals is ever the same, and her career has included an attachment to an amphibious infantry battalion as a part of the whole of Defence amphibious training across land and sea. This contributed to her desire to work in more complex roles within the Battlespace Communication Specialist field, where she is trained in tactical and voice and data communications, advanced field antenna construction, network security and specialised applications.

Corporal Victoria Takai is enjoying life on Thursday Island, where she was born.

Early this year, Corporal Takai posted to C Company, 51st Battalion, Far North Queensland Regiment at Sarpeye Barracks on Thursday Island – returning to country. “For some people, posting to the Torres Strait is considered a remote location but I was born on Thursday Island and felt so fortunate to come home and be a part of protecting the Torres Strait, in addition to spending time with my family,” she said. Corporal Takai identifies as both an Aboriginal and Torres

Strait Islander woman and is one of just seven full-time staff on the Island, amongst the one hundred personnel within the sub-unit. More than 90 per cent of the team are from the region. In addition to the duties expected of her rank and trade, she is required to operate dislocated from the nearest signal support, in the complex and culturally diverse area of the Torres Strait. Corporal Takai also assists in remote Indigenous community engagement and recruiting operations and thinks that her previ-

ous success in retail has helped her readily build rapport. “At one point in high school I was working three jobs while studying,” she said. “I switched to full-time in food retail when I finished, and when they offered me a management role, it gave me a choice to continue that path or try something different and join ADF.” That decision paid dividends and she is now the Signals Capability Manager to the only Australian Army sub-unit that shares an international border.

Pearson plays a role in major ADF exercise GOING away for an exercise can really benefit one’s career; and for Leading Aircraftman Matthew Pearson it also means looking forward to a home cooked meal with his family at the end. During a busy exercise period, especially during a global pandemic, returning home is not always easy, however, airfield defence guard, Leading Aircraftman Pearson, got lucky when he was told he would be deploying to Townsville for Exercise Talisman Sabre. Currently posted to No. 1 Security Forces Squadron in NSW, Pearson said he was a proud Torres Strait Islander with the Royal Australian Air Force. “My island home is Hammond Island, however I have spent most of my life in Townsville where my parents and sister live,” he said. “I have a lot of family in the Australian Defence Force, including my brothers, which gave me the incentive that I too could enjoy life in the ADF and challenge myself. “Throughout my career so far I’ve participated in six exercises that allowed me to see parts of Australia I never thought I would, and I have been overseas conducting Aircraft Security Operations.”
