Steve Dagora
|
Steve Dagora (b. 1922?) is primarily known because he appeared on a postage stamp of his native Papua in 1932, when he was 10 years old, as the "son of Oala". Dagora was educated at the Catholic convent in Koki, a suburb of Port Moresby. He worked with his father both on the farm, and as 2nd engineer on the M. V. Chinsura. By World War II he had developed a reputation as a competent mechanic. As well as having successful involvement in both the trucking and construction industry, he contributed greatly to his country's agricultural development.
