Synopsis

The prosperity of Australia during the last century was provided by the wealth generated from the nation's farmlands. One of the main components of this success depended on the subsided use of super-phosphate fertilisers derived from the rich phosphate rock deposits of a small remote Pacific island. In a period spanning eighty years, Australia was a major shareholder in a joint commercial venture with the governments of the United Kingdom and New Zealand to mine Banaba-Ocean Island. Now only twenty-five years later, these historical links seem all but forgotten. The Banabans want to address these issues and call for the Australian Government to finally recognise their significant contribution in shaping Australian history.
