Apropos of this, I recently obtained a copy of "Tok Pisin Stret!
Wordlist & Spell Check for Papua New Guinea Pidgin" (published by
Kristen Pres in 1994) from John Evans, who is now manager of the UPNG
bookstore. The booklet is a TP to English glossary that includes
nearly all of Mihalic as well as numerous new entries that are
asterisked. More copies might be available.
Also most (all?) PNG departments that have a web presence can be found at:
http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/Oceania/Papua_New_Guinea/Government/
but I think the Web sites have little if any TP.
