Stone Handcrafts Wanted from Ranogga Island

Wanted Stone Handcrafts for decorations or send to a friend, we offer more of our unique items.

Old artifacts could be an Opportunity.

Old handicrafts could be a big opportunity to set up a museum in our area. Hundreds of the collections are being discovered and excavated. It is wiser to put on display once the set up is established.

For instance, an old stone axe was discovered after the 2007 April earthquake & tsunami which elevated the island of Ranogga. The finding was located at the site where a shocking event took place way back at seventeen or eighteen century. The raid was done by people of Isabel Island resulting their head warrior was beheaded during that event The finding was believed to be that head warrior which he’s the next to the chief of Bugotu tribe. His head was brought to the sacrifice site which can be seen today.

 Such history may keep alive at all time and it may be one of the beneficiary factors to improve education to primary and secondary schools.

Kumana's Grandson Plan Out Reconciliation.

Kumana’s  Grandson plan’s our reconciliation between Kumana’s close relatives (Tribe), Kumana’s youngest son John. F. Kennedy and R. Aaron Malakana (Grandson).

The reconciliation was to clarify some of the tensions between these people which related to Kumana’s relationship with those USA visiting friends. One of this was his promise to his community, purposely to clarify that, such promise is a propose and the community should understand  the outcome, either positive or negative, and the community should understand this.

This gathering will also remind the community the potential of tourist industrial that may establish in the community without destroying the environment. And such projects must be accepted in the community. The gathering will also terminate some of the tensions between the family of Kumana and his tribe.

Kumana’s Promise could be Dangerous said a close Relative .

A close relative of Aaron Kumana who is from Kumana’s tribe said that Kumana’s promise to his community could be affecting his (Kumana) reputation and his family. 

The relative said that, for almost 5 years now but nothing happens. He also said that the frequent visitors from the USA had been reminding the community of expecting some positive result from them.

Kumana’s promise somehow could be hiding out from the back of everybody's mind but may spoil his reputation and his family.

 Also there has been disagreement from kumana’s tribe, for being requested Kumana to leave his home for a day trip on the tourist boat. This may allow him to catch cold and he is aging and such request may affect his health. 

In response, Kumana’s grandson stated clearly that such request may allow him to be part of his solidarity with his USA friends, and moreover is to relieve himself from the ongoing stress which currently affecting him since he lost his beloved wife.

Kumana cannot locate exactly where he and buiku buried the body of a Japanese pilot.

It was a fine day and there were attacks from the Air and the Sea between the Japanese and Allied force. This makes it harder to differentiate either we are now heading to the setting of the sun or still in mid day.

          We approach Lebu bay (Gizo Island) and we saw a Japanese plane was being attacked by an Allied Plane. There it went right in front where I and Baku ahead too. We spotted where the wreck is but not a sign of anybody. There above us was a large umbrella, it was a parachute, the pilot was air-escaped from his plane. We approach him but it doesn't seem like an enemy to us but expecting us to save him from his injury and we treat his wound in the Gizo harbor (Now BP wharf).

          Next day, I and Biuku planned to hand him to the Americans but he asked us to take him to Kolobangara (Japanese base). But we insisted, then he retaliated. Wow!! He is a tough guy, he made very fast move with actions (Karate) then made an attack on us. But with a change we hold and won't let him free and after a lot minutes he collapsed and we lost our Japanese friend. We buried him in BP area Gizo town.

          It was in the year 2004 my grandfather told this story to me. And this year 2012 the Japanese Government Volunteers are seeking any reminds of the Japanese soldiers who died during the WWII may report this to them. So in private (2012) I asked my grandfather were was the exact site where they buried the Japanese Pilot, but he cannot locate the exact site.
