I spent 3 weeks in Papua New Guinea in August 1986. The Highlight of the trip was the Sing-Sing in Goroka. The government brings together about 700 tribes every 2 years to promote peace among the tribes. Most of the tribes have their own language, to unify the nation they are promoting a common language called Tok Pisin or Pidgin English. The Sing-Sing was an assault on my senses, the colorful costumes, constant drum beats, 700 groups singing at once, the anticipation of violent outbreaks, it was the most exciting time of my life.
